A few days ago or probably it was weeks ago (forgive me for my poor memory), i have posted a picture of a woman who really looks perfect in everything. Her complexion was porcelain white, her eyes were huge (though i found it very creep), the nose is perfect and the lips too. It has been the center of attention in Korea and people were debating whether she's a real existing person or it was just a doll that was made to pose in a picture.
Finally the truth came out. That girl was a real living person but she doesn't look perfectly as that in the picture. In other words, THANK YOU PHOTOSHOP!
A lot of men in Korea were disappointed to see her real face. I don't have any idea what her intention is in editing that picture anyway. So have a look and see for yourself.

The girl is excellent at using Photoshop to make herself look so perfect. No wonder she has become the center of attention in Korea. The picture on the left looks just like a fashion doll: porcelain white, a neat little nose and sweet lips. I wonder what her intention is changing that photo. I imagine that now the truth of what she really looks like it has disappointed her somewhat.

Surely the men expected a lot! The picture was a perfect person and every men who saw that were a bit drooling although i found the first picture really creepy though. It's like a face of a ghost in a scary movie.

Actually, looking at the pic on the right, she's still ain't that bad. Just that the IDEAL UNREALISTIC image that is being held by the guys may be overrated. There is no need for disappointment if there weren't expectations. LOL.

hello toni,
Well,this modern day and with so much of technology,we can never tell who is who.
Or what i mean is...we can never say who is pretty/beautiful in the real essence.
So,better days now are for those not so pretty face and don't have much money to spend for surgery and other beauty magic...at least they can proudly say "this is natural" (hahaha)

I do prefer the real picture than the fake... too sick looking and un healthy... well at least the big eyes are not as bad as they could well be using ceratin camera shots... lol
I much prefer real pictures and real people than fakes... these days if oyu don't see the person in real life, how can you tell their pics are really them or photoshopped?

Couldn't agree with you more. Asian men especially from Japan, Korea and China really love skinny girls. They don't like even just a little fat on the arms or the abs. That's why they really loved the first picture with that porcelain white skin and skinny body.

I see where she enhanced her look with photoshop and did a great job with it too. I like the real photo of her. She does not look bad. If she deceived people by saying the photoshop was actually her then I understand why many were upset.
She should stick with the real of her because she does not look bad at all. She has some very gorgeous eyes and I don't understand why she would not see that also.

Sometimes, it's nice to see a beautiful picture of yours even if it was edited to make it look beautiful.
At least, even at the picture you look beautiful. But then, it would be shameful if others would comment based on that, that you are beautiful . Yet, when they see you, you are just plain looking. They would wonder why was it so?
It would have been better if your picture is not that beautiful, yet when they see you in person they will exclaim, "My! You are much more beautiful in person.".

Yes, I saw that in the news on Yahoo. But what do you say, at least we found someone with superb photoshop skills. Maybe the celebrities will hire him/her, whoever did the photoshop and we might get a photoshop celebrity.
To those who were disappointed, maybe they should continue to see those fake pictures and continue to deceive themselves. It's tough waking up from a beautiful dream. The higher you get, the harder you fall.

I did not see the news story about this so not sure if she was perceiving herself to be the photoshop girl when in fact she was not, if so then I understand why some would be upset. Either way the real photo of her does not make her look bad at all she is very pretty, I think.
Hi!

Maybe awareness of photoshopped images isnt too high then in Korea. Here in the UK, it is actually taught in schools about how magasines are altered to give a certain impression. The way everyone looks in the magasines is always very skinny, toned, tanned and with a great complexion. When you compare the before and after photos, you see that the unphotoshopped version just shows a normal person, with fat in places, some blemishes on their skin etc. I really dont agree with the way that photoshop is overused. I know it has always been the way, where photoshoots would use lighting, and makeup to make people look a certain way, but I think that using photoshop to alter a person's figure is a little warped. Its no wonder so many people have eating disorders and mental health issues these days.

She's still cute. She's the real picture is the one on the right, right? I'd still go out with her if given the chance.

The second picture is a little bit unreal though. Her eyes are so huge and it's the contact lens that she's using that's giving that effect. I'm sure even the second one was a bit edited too.

Yeah if other says "thank you doctor" in this case you say thank you photoshop or whatever they use to fix such picture. So now a days you can do anything in the picture even in the reality technology can do something, but always the of the day truth will came out, like the truth will set you free.. right... see you around

She is good at photoshop then. She might have been so thankful for the photo shop technology that it made her famous...

A lot of people got turned off though, coz the real face was not as beautiful as they expected her to be.

Hi Toniganzon, I see anything wrong with either picture she looks good in both of them. She is a very pretty girl. I don't see why they would be disappointed.

Korea's standard of beauty is indeed unrealistic. They want women to be so skinny, like anorexics. They even consider me fat lol!
