Cue VANK:

"Sandra, Oh No!� The U.S. press has picked Korean-Canadian actress Sandra Oh as the worst dresser following the 14th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday. The 37-year-old actress appeared in a version of Korean traditional outfit or hanbok at the ceremony.

They said that the dress, designed by Los Angeles-based hanbok designer Kim Mi-hee, was like a gift box with wrapping in progress and the pink breast tie in the shape of a half bow reminiscent of digestive Pepto-Bismol.

I am not much of a cultural fan of any sort. Even tho I am a european I don't particularly care for my birth country's traditional attire. I personaly think the Hanbok is the fugliest of all traditional attire in Asia.

You can't really say that's even a hanbok since it's missing the top part. She's essentially topless. She can only get away with such a scandalous interpretation because she's a kyopo. No self-respecting Korean gal would ever go that far.

When you have to have something to make people look at your breasts you know you've got problems

Can someone please explain to me how Sandra Oh became such a big-time celebrity? She has no charm, she's not at all attractive, and as an actor she has no range or emotional depth beyond fine shades of bitchiness. I don't get it.

Sandra Oh -- a perfect cure for yellow fever.

they should have just gone with the traditional hanbok. at least that way people would have taken it as a cultural, traditional look. most people can admire or respect culture.. but that dress looks nothing like a hanbok!

Oh made " People "magazine's list of 50 the most beautiful people. The white men think Oh is a beautiful Wink She looks ok, but I don't think she is a beautiful ( at least not to me ), however she has a talent, she is Dr Christina Yang in Grey's Anatomy. You know Grey's Anatomy is the most popular drama on TV in America.

She seems like red color, she often wear dress with red color.

I am a white man and I do not think she is beautiful.

I'll bet MissSeoul is more beautiful than MissOh.

I would be very happy to see a photo of MissSeoul!
