Is there anybody else besides me who is sick of looking at Kim Tae-Hee?



My god she is everywhere...makeup posters, fashion posters, and she is in every second TV commercial. Talk about overexposed.

Yes, she is a bit cute, but nothing to write home about. And I am royally sick of seeing her everywhere.

Have you seen the list of products and companies she is currently endorsing? What gives?

Cyon
LG
iriver
Hera
Ohui
Vivian
Daewoo Matiz
Klasse
Samsung
Beans Avenue
Olympus
My House/Root
Crencia
KT Smard Card
Calli
ZEC
BC Card
Maxwell House
S-Oil
Corn Silk Tae

On the other hand, I wish I had her money...

Given the choice between seeing Kim Tae-hee everywhere, or Unibrow (who Kim succeeded for conrol of the advertising kingdom), I'd choose Kim every time.

Who is unibrow?

Kim tae hee is raking in some serious dough while doing absolutely no work. Don't tell me making a CF is a lot of work! There are so many actors trying to make it taking every and any role they can.

Freakn genetics right? haha

she'd like to work and make money as much as she can and as long as young and pretty is she cause she knows she has no talent in acting as to be a life long respected actress. she's the it girl in the commercial right now.

damn boring.
maybe dissapear sooner or later.

Girl is cute enough, but can't act to save her life. Anyone see The Restless????? Embarassed And yeah, she's way overexposed. Turn on the TV on... and there she is. I switch channels...and there she is.

Frankenstein, who the hell is Unibrow?

Now, being a bit particular in my tastes, my two favorite Korean beauties are Soo-Ae:







Soo-Ae is not to everybody's taste, but man that smile is a kicker!

Kim Min-Sun is gorgeous too. I don't know why those big eyes aren't staring out of every poster in Korea:

When I moved here, there were Jjang Nara posters EVERYWHERE.

Now where is she? China or something?

At least Kim Tae Hee is hot.

Probably does.



No. I used to think the same thing until I lived here for a time and could notice the differences. Now I look at stars from the West and think they all look similar.... same nose, eyes, chin.



Here's a guy who is certainly bucking the trend in the looks department, although he's doing so in China:

I think she is indeed in China right now, helping out with setting up a new school for the earthquake victims.

I used to find her a bit annoying but she actually seems pretty down to earth and cool.

I had this uncomfortable feeling that all Korean actresses looked the same... it's actually the same person? That's kind of a relief.

She is everywhere because that's the Korean way! Abuse it, thrash it, exploit it and once it�s done stick a fork in it and throw it away. Her managers know this so they are milking her for everything they can get while she's hot! I�d do the same thing also... the longevity of being a Korean celebrity is short! Very short! Only a very small few can live on...

Not to mention the Korean marketing people who are putting up the ideas to the board of directors to endorse their product are complete idiots!
They think use someone who is hot right now and everyone else are using is good marketing! Again that shows great Korean ingenuity!
Rolling Eyes
You will see her everywhere until the next one comes off the generated celebrity assembly line!
