Do you think this is interesting? Ugly?

Be careful ordering from the internet. When it's delivered you might suddenly realize it was designed for Little People.

Sometimes the camera does lie.

Absolute crap furniture, but, then again, if you go with the local mentality and fill up a 25 Pyung box of an apartment with the stuff, it can come off as 'cultured'. Personally, I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.

Did you find that furniture by doing a google image search for the word "tacky"?

My parents own a succeful furniture store and both think that Korean furniture is just plain fugly. Its expensive and the workmanship/craftsmanship is really low after looking at it closely. Whats worse Korean furniture is about the MOST uncomfortable things I have ever encountered. This country runs on appearances and it applies to korean stuff as well, its pretty from afar but as soon as you use it its horendous.

I laughed when I saw it. I don't know if it's supposed to be ironic.
