K-media and Netizens Critique Lee Min Ho’s Visuals Attending the Movie Premiere for A Normal Family

View Comments

• Maybe he doesn’t have any sponsorship or advertising deals anymore, so he is free to appear in public looking like he just crawled out from the bed….

  And also, he must have no stylist now, coz he applied his own make up and looked completely amateur at it.

  • His make up makes him look weird. Otherwise he should be ok with a proper hair cut.
    Please stay away from cosmetics unless you have a competent stylists.. even girls like me struggle with cosmetics.

    • it is just a lighting- nothing to do with makeup- lol. also- he is nearing 40, common people. dont be like knet- nitpicking for everything.

    • Don’t be overly protective until one can’t admit the truth.

      It’s not only the lightning. Most likely, he applied the foundation and lip gloss on his own. As it turned out, it’s not his best skill set so it’s not able to withstand the glare of the lighting.

      If it’s entirely lightning then all artistes would have had this ghostly appearance on stage or in front of cameras.

      And his outfit was rather pretty sloppy though it looked more casual and youthful, but I certainly had seen him in better sporty attires. Although this is not his sponsor’s event, but he did appear on stage so as a celebrity, the remarks can’t be helped. There’s no need to defend him like as if he is gonna be executed.

      There’s nothing wrong with making a truthful comments. Just like koala said, everyone has his or her own bad hair day. There’s nothing to whitewash or hide about.

• I have to be honest - I am not a fan of Lee Min Ho, nor his visuals normally, but I think this critique is uncalled for. The clothes are perfectly alright, makes him look a bit younger than his usual boring old-man-style, so fine with me. Not a huge fan of the hairstyle or make-up, but quite honestly I hate his normal K-poplook and most Korean and Chinese actors wear too much makeup, so what is the outcry about?

• He is fine...not a young 20+ chap anymore...his outfit is great.

  • Interestingly I think so about his outfit that makes him look with more youth vibe.

    • Ya.. I think the outfit is great.

• Never understood his appeal ,but the clothes look alright ,He needs to stop the plastic surgery.

• he's old,hence he look unsightly.

  • He's only 37😑

    • in showbiz,anyone above 35 is old

    • @meemaw Kim Soohyun, Kim Beom, Kim Woobin, Jung Haein are all over 35. Gong Yoo, Lee Dongwook, Lee Joongi amongst many others are over 40. they're old according to your threshold, but they're not unsightly. maybe LMH is just having an off day.

• Simple. He had PS when he was younger, hence he's not aging well now. Those who aged well are the ones who didn't do PS, for example Kim Soo Hyun.

  • I love Kim Soo Hyun but it’s a stretch to say he didn’t get any PS done….

    • his nose procedure albeit minor, was really well done ngl. And he did it very early in his career like, right after debut

  • Kim Soo Hyun is a sport obsessed man. He can wake up at 4 am to ride a bicycle, he went to Jeju Island just to ride +30 kilometers on a bicycle with his coach. Therefore, it is understandable that he is aging well.There are not many people like him, it is unfair to compare anyone with him.
    While Lee Min Ho has serious injuries after a car accident, because of which he was released from the army. So I can understand if he doesn't work out.

    • I agree that working out maybe hard after his recovery. But maybe he can take up swimming? it's easier on the joints and the muscles and is a good way to burn calories as long as you are not swimming competitively. I once told a good friend of mine who had injuries from playing tennis (chronic back problems) that he could take up swimming because it was easier on the joints, but he didn't seem enamored with that idea.

    • Based on LMH's social media posts, he plays tennis and cycles regularly. He also goes swimming. He works out but seems like he isn't obssessive about it like other actors like Gong Yoo who seems to live in the gym nor does he post about it in his social media that much.

• Well i prefer for this simple outlook rather than heavy suits and silk hair?

• Well I do like the 'he got a lot of attention part'. You know what wise men say 'a big tree attracts the woodsman's axe's and /or a big tree catches more wind than small ones. Those netizens are simply proving the stardom that Lee min ho. Baby boy cannot do anything without them throwing shades or something. Anyways, he looks great to me. Interestingly, I'd like to know the age bracket of these netizens, if they're teenagers, then it's probably teen foolishness or adults. If they're adults then we probably should consider calling it what it is, which is TALL POPPY SYNDROME!!

• I don't care, even if he wears a bathrobe or wrapped in a towel. he is handsome in anything. But I hate to see him using too much face-foundation he looks like a sculpture in Madame Tussauds museum

• He's just going as an attendee rather than an actor representing and promoting the work, so I think we can give him a pass. Outside of the BOF hype, I felt like he never came off as all that interesting. This quirky "dressing like a dad who just woke up from a nap" side to him makes him interesting.
