Hollywood actress Moon Bloodgood will be named an honorary ambassador for tourism by the Korea Tourism Organization on Monday.

She becomes the first Hollywood star to represent Korea’s tourism.

Bloodgood, who was born to an American father and a Korean mother, appeared in several television shows since 2002 and starred as the “gorgeous woman” in the 2004 movie “Win a Date with Ted Hamilton.” Her other works include “A Lot Like Live,” “Eight Below,” and most recently “Terminator Salvation.” She was also named one of the “40 Most Beautiful Hollywood Women” by movie magazine Premier.

“We plan on working with Ms. Bloodgood in various star marketing for the U.S. region,” said Shin Pyeong-sub, head of the North American team of KTO. “We hope her becoming the honorary ambassador will help enhance Korea’s tourism image in the market of the United States that has been suffering due to economic downturn and the spread of H1N1 virus,” Shin said. The appointment ceremony will be at the KTO’s auditorium Monday morning.
