Once a Korea celebrity scandals come out, there are people who drag the looks of the celebrity which I think is very twisted of people. It just shows how much lookism the world is suffering from. There are two types of it
The First Type (BASHING OF LOOKS)
This is evident in Woojin, Jimin of Aoa scandals
You see comments like
“ she’s was never that pretty in the first place”
“ why is she rude? Her face is the product of plastic surgery”
“Imagine having both an ugly face and ugly personality”
“
At least be pretty inside , if you’re not pretty outside “
Like for the seo yeji and Kim Jung hyun issue, you see seo yeji fans commenting stuff like this
“What an ugly man”
“How did he become an actor with that face”
“He looks like a monkey”
The second type (THE PRETTY PRIVILEGE)
Evident in Irene, Hyunjin , Seolhyun and some other celebrities I can’t recall at the moment. I don’t hate any of these idols at all, they are actually some of my faves.
The reactions to them were quite funny
For example on Irene’s case:
Comments were like
“ You can’t deny it, she has a perfect face”
“Bad character or not, she’s a goddess “
“ why would you have this face and do such a thing, Irene-ah”
“ She’s so beautiful that people will forgive her once she shows her face on tv”
I mean look at the difference in reaction towards Seolhyun and jimin, yes jimin was the perpetrator so the crime is of a higher level but the way people literally obliterated her because she’s considered less attractive
Some of her comments
“she looks like an uglier version of Samuel L Jackson”
“She’s the ugliest female idol I have ever seen“
Someone actually wrote this like I’m not Kidding
“At least Seolhyun is pretty, what’s jimin excuse for bullying”
What I’m trying to say is, Let’s just focus on calling them for their bad attitude and personalities and leave their looks outta of it.
Physiology has nothing to do with someone being a bad person. A beautiful person can be nasty and an ugly person can be nasty.
