Do you recognize that a beautiful face in this Kpop industry is sometimes much more
important than talent?
In fact, some idols are said to have the chance to debut just because of their looks only.
That being said, having a good appearance is always an advantage, however, that doesn’t
mean idols with pretty visuals can always live peacefully because as long as they don't
look good for a few minutes, netizens will immediately flock to them and harshly bashed
them eventhough they tried to maintain their prettiness the rest of the time.

Jisoo mocked for being old in fantaken photo
Lately, a circulated photo of Jisoo which was taken by fans with extreme close range,
has put many netizens under suspicion about her supposed goddess visual.
In fact, the photo was initially uploaded with the purpose of making everyone shocked
at Jisoo's flawless beauty even in close-up pic, but eagle-eyed netizens immediately pointed
out her big and dark eyebags as well as the wrinkles appearing by the lip corners when
she smiles, which are said to make Jisoo look way different from her in magazine photos
or instagram pics that are carefully edited.
Some also pointed out another minus point of Jisoo: her big teeth, which disproportionate
with her thin lips and make her smile look a bit awkward, especially when the female
idol laughs comfortably.
Not only that, some even straight-up said that Jisoo looks more like a random 40-year-old
woman than a Kpop idol goddess like fans usually praised her.
They also admitted they are a bit taken aback when learning that Jisoo is the same age as
many other idols like V, Jimin, and Nayeon.
In fact, Jisoo has long been considered much more mature than her actual age, compared
to when she first debuted, Jisoo's face has lost more babyfat than necessary, making the
female idol look significantly thinner and older.
However, Jisoo’s fans immediately slap antis' faces for mindlessly digging up dirt on her.
They questioned whether these haters really noticed that Jisoo couldn’t be drowned even
when being super close to the camera, and asked netizens to be honest to answer how
many female idols in that situation could still look great like Jisoo?
Usually, when you are too close to the camera, facial features are often enlarged disproportionately
due to the effect of focal distance.
So it's understandable that Jisoo's face looks a bit weird in that photo.
Fans also claimed that the closer they look at Jisoo, the more beautiful she is to them
because every single facial feature of the female idol is so sharp and perfect.

Wonyoung said to look way less pretty in Innisfree's advertisement
Being one of the most popular gen4 female idols has helped Wonyoung gain numerous advertising
opportunities from big brands.
And recently, the young female idol has filmed a commercial video with the beauty brand Innisfree,
which, unfortunately, made her become the center of online discussion for allegedly
looking less beautiful with her bareface.
It is easy to notice that Wonyoung’s bareface made her look a bit strange compared to her
usual bling-bling image on stage with her face carefully made up.
That’s why after seeing Wonyoung in that video, many netizens immediately picked on
the female idol, saying that the first thing that caught their attention is her skin tone,
which is clearly tanned like she just got back from the beach, as well as oily like
she just woke up in the morning.
Not only that, some even admitted that they find Wonyoung really pale and lifeless when
she showed up with her bareface as many defects on her face were completely exposed like the
unnatural smile, as well as the overdone and botched eyelids, which could only get covered
when being carefully made up.
On the other hand, many netizens claimed that Wonyoung actually possesses clear facial features,
so it doesn't matter whether she wears heavy or light makeup, or even no makeup at all.What’s
more, they didn’t find any problems with her skin in those pictures as it already looks
smooth and glowy.
The reason why some people don’t like her bareface is the fact that they are too familiar
with the image of Wonyoung in super bling-bling makeup, so it might be a bit of a shock to
them when the female idol appears the other way.
Some also claimed that the light in the video is too weak, making Wonyoung’s skin color
look slightly duller and that’s why some found her complexion darker than usual

Karina getting brought on the table with Yuna
Another female idol who has also become the focus of discussion in terms of downgraded
visual these days is Karina.
Always receiving compliments on the surreal AI face, Karina somehow recently has everyone
bash her when showing up at Gayo Daechukje with a questionable appearance.
Specifically, in some photos of her at the event circulating on social platforms, Karina
was spotted to have many defects on her face.
Many pointed out that the female idol’s face was a bit swollen, her eyes were said
to look dull and tired, as well as the skin was not as smooth as usual, making her look
a bit strange in the eyes of netizens.
Not only that, the thing that also got on everyone’s nerves is Karina’s unflattering
makeup look, which completely failed to highlight her facial contours and even turned her face
red and made it look like she was crying.
Some even stated that for a second, they thought that Karina was punched in her eyes or got
drunk before getting on stage.
Unfortunately for Karina, that day Yuna appeared as beautiful as a Barbie doll with a surreal
body, radiant beauty and a super cute outfit.
As a result, Karina was brought to the table with Yuna and on Pann, they also pointed out
that Karina was done dirty by SM as the company always tries to impose ridiculously heavy
makeup on her to make her look like an AI character though the female idol, in fact,
much suits light makeup.
Fans thus hope that later on, Karina wouldn’t be forced to put on a similar makeup look
so that her facial lines could get to be accentuated.
However, many fans didn’t view it the same way.
They said that if netizens watch Aespa’s performance at Gayo Daechukje, they will see
that her visual is totally fine as usual and this makeup style actually helped her facial
lines become sharper when performing under strong light.
They also pointed out that the real culprit here is the underexposed photo that misleads
Karina's skin as dark and rough when it's true that she has one of the best barefaces
in Kpop.

Danielle bashed for being at the same par as the most unappealing member of NewJeans
It is admitted that NewJeans is one of the few girl groups in which all the members have
such natural and fresh visuals.
In particular, Danielle is the one that has continuously made headlines thanks to her
doll-like appearance.
With a striking visual that is the perfect combination of Western and Eastern features,
Danielle just casually stands out in the lineup with a small face, big round eyes, a straight
nose, naturally curly hair, and flawless white skin.
Therefore, she always looks gorgeous no matter what makeup or hairstyle she puts on, and
even the press photos, which will expose all defects on idols’ faces because of the extremely
bright flash, can't drown her beauty.
It can be said that Danielle is the most outstanding visual in NEWJEANS in the eyes of non-fans.
With all of that, why is she even bashed for being at the same par as the most unappealing
member of the group?
Well, there is a fact that many Koreans don't like Danielle's beauty.
To explain this, some pointed out that Danielle has a rather low hairline along with a short
forehead, which make her face look not so fancy.
Her body proportions are said to be out of standard and rather weird as many pointed
out that her upper body is so long that the bottom-half appears quite short, leading to
those who love a perfect figure like Knetizens quickly growing out of her.
Besides, as Danielle also has been using English to interact with fans rather than Korean,
it is understandable that she won't be as popular with Koreans as other members.
Meanwhile, some defend that as Koreans don't usually like Americans or half-bloods, so
it's understandable that Danielle is not a hot member in Korea, yet she’s still among
the prettiest in the group, and for sure she will gain popularity internationally.
So, do you think these female idols’ visuals deserve the criticism as many netizens claim?
