• Wow I am happy Kim woo bin made it in top ten even he hadn't have a main role in drama yet. I really hope to see him in Hong sisters' jejudo island Gatsby.

  • Would love to see him in Hong Sisters' drama as main lead.
    Come n Woo Bin say yes!

  • congratulation to him.. hopefully after his first lead in hong sister drama, he will achieve more success. but i think he is on this list due to his 2 released movies which one of them he is the lead actor

  • thank you for being the first on commenting and mentioning uri woobin, hehe.. i like it so much :)

    i hope, he can get his 'first' role from a popular writer-nim.. and the drama is a hit! you can do it, woobinah..

• kim soo hyun will have new drama this may! yes!!

• my forever goddess jun ji hyun and kim yuna are slaying even for 2015. waiting jjh film assasination this july i think..

• i don't understand why kim tae hee always in the top ten cf star list? does it mean if you are graduated from top university like seoul national university, you will be forever been put at high pedestal? i kind of feeling weird about this because she is just a graduate from fashion design course at seoul university. maybe south korea standard is different from my country. here only medical student, engineering student and law are considered top.

  • She is lovely and must be loved by the Koreans surely for more than her univerśity and education credentials. All those in the list are not there for their educational qualifications......it's the total package , I believe.

    • yes she is lovely and all. but korean netizen seems to put her in very high pedestal.. even she is dating rain right now, rain got all the blacklash where she still been praised

  • Even to graduate from fashion design in Seoul Uni, you have to put your life in line. It's extremely hard to get into this university no matter what degree you want to take. Only 3% of the entire students who pass the final exam get into it so she must be very smart. As for her being forever in the top 10 of the CF top stars, it's a mix between being a graduate from the #1 university in SK + being considered by most Koreans as the most beautiful celebrity.

    • i got it know.. maybe because i think student from other course such as fashion design course can easily get all A.

  • I don't understand it either. She's a crappy actress and whatever achievement she has in her academic life shouldn't bear any impact to her main profession which is acting. Does she even create any memorable designs so far? Also, the idea that someone's alma mater reflects the level of their cognitive intelligence needs to be discarded as soon as possible. I've heard some of the dumbest comments from Harvard graduate Natalie Portman (she equates eating meat with rape and said recession is an exiting time) and UCLA, Columbia alumnus James Franco (who is a total wacko and a horrible writer). That being said, I think her success as a CF model comes from the crucial IT factor - her face - and her educational background is just icing on the cake. Tablo is a hugely successful musician with a Stanford credential to begin with, but he will never become a CF model like, let say, recluse actor Won Bin

  • She's THE standard of Korean beauty. She also went to a university most can only dream about and in a society that places so much importance on education, that's something big. She's not the best actress, but she's a well respected person. It's not like the top 10 is full of the best actors in Korea to begin with. I don't see why she's singled out.

    • because i can see why other actors or actresses on this list beside suzy. but suzy for sure good for mediaplay.

  • I don't think educational qualification plays any role in her being in the top 10. Its more because koreans seems to love her face, same with suzy. And thus those two are always there,as THE CF STARS.(which i also don't find fair, but that's how it is).

• Happy to see Yoo Jae Sook there.....

• Jeon ji hyun still slaying good for her its been a yr since ywcfts ended and she manage to stay on top she is really the queen of all queens in korea. Hope she make another drama again.

• The 2nd, 3rd and 8th places are very well-deserved. Yoo Jae Suk is an incredible hardworker who seems to operate in an alternative universe where he has more than 24 hours a day. Queen Yuna sacrificed her whole childhood and youth life to bring Korea the international accolades in ice skating; therefore, she'd better collect a good fortune from these cf deals for the rest of her life. I'm surprised to find Ryu Seung Ryong here instead of Choi Min Sik, but maybe he has amassed popularity since the effect of Miracle in cell no.7 and now it's added up thanks to Roaring currents.

  • Song Kang Ho and Choi Min Sik rarely accept any CF offer

• Yay.. Ryu seung ryong-sshi. Wow..Kim woo bin seems to be the only one benefited hugely from heirs i guess. He is retaining a spot in top 10 ever since that drama ended. Lucky fellow. And this list doesn't seem to change much as far as i observed. Its just these stars interchanging no.s. But as you have mentioned, i too look forward for ppl below in the ranking to climb the ladder.

• I guess this list is for only local commercials or otherwise I thought differently for a moment but then realized it was only local CF list. which shows these who has most K-CFs..

• I'm proud of KWB
