What does the perfect Korean man look like?

0719-idealman.jpg
Here is the face of the perfect man – he is a composite of 16 of the handsomest stars in Korea including Rain, Won Bin, Jang Dong-gun, Kwon Sang-woo, Eric, Bae Yong-joon etc. The “average” face is suppose to be perceived as universally good looking. There was an experiment years ago on the perception of beauty, and the study found that the more faces were included in the mix, the better looking that face was perceived to be.  Hmmm. Very interesting.

Anyhow, the composite guy sort of looks like the very sexy Song Seung-heon.

    there is no such thing as perfect. he may look good to others but not to some. everyone has different taste. he’s not bad looking but i don’t find him that attractive- his lips are too feminine for me.

    there is no perfect man, as you can see from the response. think the fact looks really cute. dont mind dating him, though

    The perfect Korean man looks exactly like Gong Yoo.

    Oh wait! It IS Gong Yoo.

    they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder – he’s good looking all right but i like the looks of actor Park Shin Yang of Lovers in Paris or Shin Dong Wook even Lee Dong Gun! what’s important for me (i can’t speak for others) is the inner beauty of a person be it a man/woman! good looks are just superficial. i like korean men’s sweetness & respect for their women!

    if i squint a bit, i can see lee wan. ahah and of course i see Song Seung Hoon. i think this is ur normal good looking guy on the street, but its a good start..lol. he doesnt give you that ‘OMG he’s so hot i want to touch him’ feeling. maybe its cause my standards are high..lol. i would prefer guys like dennis oh, So Ji Sub, Daniel Hennry, and the list just keeps going..ahaha!!

  12. 13 confused October 14, 2007 at 12:38 pm

    but oh mann, he isn’t really that good looking.

    but yeah what they said about averagely-good looking universally! I’d kinda agree that his face could be sort of universally good-looking, in a way. LOL. Am I making sense =.=

    Your composite of a perfect Korean man is okay, but not quite perfect. To me to qualify as a perfect Korean man, he must look very masculine, must have good skin texture, must be tall & must have manly voice. I’m not a Jang Dong Gun’s fan, but I think he’s the handsomest on your list, but not very tall. The rest in your list are okay, but not really handsome especially Bi rain & Eric( I don’t consider them handsome at all). Some of the Korean stars that were not in your list who I think are handsome are Jo Han Seon, Lee Jin Wook, Lee Ji Hoon, Jo In Sung, Song Seung Hun & some other ones that’s not as popular as those in your list ( could not remember their names). Jo Han Seon (6′2) & Lee Jin Wook (6′1). Ofcourse, we are only picking thru the movie/drama stars, how about the ones not in the movie industry? They should hold a Mr. Korea contest, then you’ll find your perfect Korean man. By the way, Daniel Henney is handsome, but he’s not pure Korean, he’s part American.

    I think the perfect Korean man looks like Song Seung Hun (ofcourse with less eyebrows. But I noticed Song Seung Hun is not even in your list. The lips of the perfect Korean man looks like Jang Dong Gun. JDG was voted or chosen as one of the men (in general) to have kissable lips (read it in the internet). To be the perfect man, he should be taller than Song Seung Hun. Maybe the height of KSW, JHS or LJW (they are all 6 feet & above).

    you can not say that this man looks average. he certainly does not. to me he has a perfect face, his cheekbones, mouth, eyes and everything else. i would not say no to have babies (in the future) with a guy looking like this. and yes i am aware that he is computermade, just saying that i dont understand the ones finding him ugly or average-looking.

    koool lol wazzzzzzzzzz upppppppppp man you sooo hot check out my email victoria_chev123@hotmail.com
    and youpp

  29. 31 imonflux May 10, 2009 at 12:59 am

    haha, u guys, i think what the blogger is trying to imply by the word “average” is not the “ugly average” kind of meaning. i think that an “average” guy is not the plain-joe type that’s boring, yet he’s also not too overly macho, that makes him an impossible ambition. he’s perfectly in the middle, with the “boy next door” quality that mostly everyone can relate to, yet passes the qualification of an “eye candy”. i think, that’s the type of guy that GURLS n GAYS usually adore. LOL.
