Joga 1,315 Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 So as we all know, South Korea's "golden age" of beauty was in the early 2000s with visuals like Kim Tae Hee, Han Ga In, Kim Hee Sun and Song Hye Gyo taking over. But now South Koreans say there are zero actresses that come anywhere near their level. Even though casting agencies walk the streets looking for beautiful people, they still haven't managed to find someone at their tier. Why? Does this mean Korean beauty is generational? This is a random thought that popped up in my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrazyAjumma 1,925 Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 It means it's harder to find natural looking women. I know this is a particular chore for casting historical dramas/movies, not many woman have the "traditional" Korean face structure anymore.

rasras 254 Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 "level" and beauty is subjective for me Kim Tae Hee, Han Ga In are plain there's a lot of young beautiful actresses these days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hardly see them get bashed for their looks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Channie Tatum 3,017 Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Most of the actresses considered exceptionally beautiful look mostly natural and unique These days a lot of celebrities go for the same look (or perhaps clinic :/ ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coward 1,968 Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Won Bin & Kim Tae Hee are the holy grail standard and both are natural. It's hard to find people who are naturally that goid looking, which is kinda the point of a holy grail level. It shouldn't be easy. To quote one of my favorite movies, "The hard is what makes it great." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juststoppingby89 142 Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 It means it's harder to find natural looking women. I know this is a particular chore for casting historical dramas/movies, not many woman have the "traditional" Korean face structure anymore. I mostly agree with this statement. It's prob just a lot more of aspiring idols/actresses that all start looking like one another bc they're all surgically altering their face to attain similar types of features. So there's just more homogeneity, and a lot more of those "gangnam unnies." It's prob why these days I find Japanese actresses to be prettier bc at least most have their natural faces and features so their faces are unique and have more character. I can also distinguish them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
