...surgically enhanced breasts as "Pancho and Lefty," embraces her own absurdity. "I'm here to serve you - and run provocatively to you on the beach when the tide comes in," she says, referencing her most famous role of C.J. Parker in Baywatch.

As a result, the regime routinely imprisons and executes Christian religious leaders who teach their faith without state approval, according to a U.S. State department report. Official figures put the number of practicing Christians at 13,000 in 2001, but South Korean church groups estimate about 100,000 Christians practice in secret churches across the nation now. "We always met for prayer at peoples' homes, in groups of two to keep it private," Jeong says. "When we met in bigger groups...
