Do you actually believe a word written in this article?

http://english.chosun.com/w21data/html/news/200611/200611210029.html

Quote:
She was dressed in underwear and fishnet stockings when she sang her song �Come2me� and Madonna�s �Like a Virgin� on stage at the fifth MBC Film Awards at the Universal Arts Center on Sunday. After the performance, Ahn Sung-ki, who MC�d the event said, �I thought she might had forgotten to put her clothes on. The actors in the audience looked like they weren�t sure where they should be looking.�

The second performance is fueling criticism. One irate Internet user posted opinion on the MBC�s audience notice board saying, �How can she come out on stage with those embarrassing, indecent clothes. Did she really have to come dressed in clothes that women might have worn in the 70s or 80s in cheap bars, and on a public channel, when families were watching?� Another Netizen admitted to feeling �very embarrassed� watching the display with his parents. �This is Korea. Why doesn�t she go and live in America?� he added. Related articles on major portal sites like Naver were flooded with replies condemning her getup.

I hope she continues to wear sexy clothes and totally ignore all those moral hypocrites who want to believe Korea is some kind of nunnery for women over a certain age. Good on ya girl!!!

Lee Hyo-ri wears much more revealing stuff all the time. But she's younger so that's okay. Rolling Eyes

how old is she? she doesnt look bad. that looks pretty close to what most other korean pop singers look like, is it a deal because she is older and that is it?

Who would know.

I can't see what the big deal is.I think she generally still looks pretty good.I think the "outrage" is that at her age she ought to know better.She's spent a lot of time/money on her physical upkeep and for the most part it's been money well spent.

Would YOU kick her out of bed in a hurry?I didn't think so....

Some younger so-called starlets look much worse.Mina's Ben Affleck jaw is quite off-putting.

I'm always shocked when I see that Boa cell-phone comercial and the lyrics say "I will make love to you. I will make love tonight." I don't get how that is any better than that woman's outfit above.

If I were the last guy quoted, I'd be a bit more embarrassed about admitting to being at home watching TV with my parents.

Not even Koreans are immune to the "just get out of my country" response of some people to anything that they don't like.

Impotence and living at home makes people upset.

Do these same people get embarrassed every time they walk past a bakery or game room opening and there are the dancing girls outside? Are these the same guys condemning her and then heading off to room salons later the same night? As if the actors were feeling embarrassed. They all sleep together anyways.

lol

And that chick isn't even all that nice looking. Poor kids sporting boners and blaming the half-nekkid chick on TV. Parents need to learn to castrate their kids to prevent incidents like these.

Exactly. Many other stars where stuff like that all the time. This is just about enforcing the de-sexing of women as they reach a certain age.

You would not say that if you have seen a picture of her without the war paint on! Damm ugly. You'd have to have a grudge against your pecker to want some of her.

Many korea women look beautiful...with make-up....once it comes off...you're asking her...."who are you and what did you do with so and so."
