2004 Miss Universe, Jennifer Hawkins Gets Stuck in Mud in Korea for the Great Outdoors

Australia’s Miss Jennifer Hawkins, the 2004 Miss Universe visit to the Boryeong Mud Festival in Korea will be broadcast on Channel Seven’s The Great Outdoors next Monday, 29 August at 7.30pm.

It was quite a change for Jennifer from the glamour and catwalks of her Miss Universe reign to getting down and dirty in the mud at the annual Mud Festival in Boryeong city. The festival attracts a huge number of foreign visitors who come to the city to enjoy the mud festival events that take place over the opening weekend.

Jennifer Hawkins in her new role as presenter for The Great Outdoors had great fun filming all the highlights of the mud festival enjoying mud massages, mud slides, mud wrestling and other events.

The production team were hosted to Korea by Korea National Tourism Organization and spent ten days in Korea last month filming three segments for the Great Outdoors. Aside from filming the mud festival Jennifer filmed a segment on the beautiful semi-tropical island of Jeju which features the famous island women divers and a Seoul shopping segment for the interest of viewers to the program.

It is expected that the Korean stories to be broadcast on Australia’s highest rating television travel program will increase awareness and raise interest in Korea.

Australian arrivals to Korea have been growing consistently in the past few years and from January to July this year there has been a 10.2 per cent increase over the same period last year.

So be watching to see how stunning our former Miss Universe, Jennifer Hawkins looks even when she’s covered in mud.
