This is a rather ignominious list to win but it’s a pretty funny worst list to be on and also plenty of opportunity to improve. K-actress Ha Ji Won was voted the worst onscreen kisser but a huge margin, with second place going to Kim Tae Hee, Kang Dong Won coming in third, and a gaggle of straggling kissers in 4th … Continue reading →
