As usual Koreans have to add their SEA racism into the conversation. But they also have a point. Black people would also be upset if a North African played the role of an African-American character in a movie

SEA actress playing role of a Korean
Korean woman faces without ps
My guess is there's just not that many Korean actresses available to play the role in America and if there are, they were not as good as the current actress during audition

I'm sure there had to be one good korean actress. I don't think it was hard I think they just didnt care about casting the right actress to play the role.
I don't think it's that simple. There's very few Koreans living in America (or the West in general), they specifically needed a young woman who fit that kind of role, they also needed someone fluent in English. And due to the corona travel isn't as easy. They could have dug deeper but they would have wasted more time and money, while they are on a limited production schedule

I guess your right, it's just irks me.
SEA countries have a high population compared to Korea, so there's a bigger chance the "Asian" girl they were looking for would be a SEA girl. And I don't think the casting staff cared about whether the girl was Korean or not. She just needed to look "Asian". I mean the west can't really differentiate Asians from different regions, so the specific details on the actress' real native origin never mattered.
Some of the comments made by those netizens are completely unnecessary... Theirs no reason for them to insult her actual looks
People think they’re interchangeable that’s why. Just like how people think Arabs and Desis are interchangeable.
Anyway I’m not gonna complain either way because we all have minimal representation anyway. So that’s on that.
I just portrayed u in a positive light but why the angry react
