Can Min Hyorin and Woori become Korean Olsen twins?

20071119_minhyorin4

Luxury nose Min Hyorin and Shinbi (mysterious) girl Woori want to become the Korean equivalent of Hollywood’s Olsen twins. It’s painful to see these two unrelated stars trying so hard to look like identical twins, but surprisingly, some are buying their twin act. At the disgraceful Mnet KM Music Festival event, comedian Shin Dong Yup could not hide his surprise when he saw these two together.

Min Hyorin and Woori will travel to 10 different cities in 7 different countries to film a show titled Korean Olsen Twins, which features fashions and trends of each city. Korean Olsen Twins will air on Mnet January 2008.

Does anybody else smell a high profile lawsuit? And who the hell is going to watch Olsen twins wannabes?

    They… have got to be kidding me. -o-

  2. 2 Eve November 20, 2007 at 9:05 pm

    Who thought of that idea? Please kill them.

  3. 3 yala November 20, 2007 at 9:09 pm

    yeah kill them

    why on Earth???!!..why the Olsens??..druggies over-drive..!!!.

    A. The olsen twins are not identical, so if they were attempting to be them, they wouldnt be acting like “Identical” twins.
    Identical twins are 100% the same DNA. We can leave a hair at a crime scene and no one would be able to tell which one did it. Even our saliva is 100% the same saliva (Unless Ive just drank a soda, etc)
    Dont compare those stupid FRATERNAL twins to IDENTICAL twins, fraternals are just like sister and sister they just came out at the same time.

    These chicks are cute, though. Are you sure its more like those two hilton people? Those seem more what they are like.

    Both are >…..<

    Uhhhhhhh…??

  8. 8 Monziii November 20, 2007 at 10:28 pm

    This is hilarious…why are they trying act like twins when they have no relation what so ever??? Bad idea…sooo bad!

  9. 9 eli November 20, 2007 at 10:37 pm

    the idea is off.. really off.
    well… good luck. -_-

  10. 10 minjoo November 20, 2007 at 11:04 pm

    LMAO… I’m not mad at the fact that they’re trying to be something like the Olsen twins… but more mad at the fact that they actually stated it in the title. LMAO

    I guess they wanted to make it crystal clear to us that they were trying hard ’so-please-notice-them’ to be like the Olsen twins.

  11. 11 nileey November 20, 2007 at 11:19 pm

    that’s quite sad, really…don’t they have their own identity? Why bother calling themselves Korean Olsen Twins??

  12. 12 anonymous-y November 20, 2007 at 11:40 pm

    haha.
    “we’re so manufactured” in yo’ face~!

  13. 13 korean-do November 20, 2007 at 11:58 pm

    lol.
    stupid

  14. 14 Jason November 21, 2007 at 12:31 am

    Seems more like they’re copying the Hong Kong pop group Twins, also comprised of two unrelated young women who look almost nothing alike. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twins_%28band%29

  15. 15 Chantelle November 21, 2007 at 12:48 am

    This is…so sad…
    When you strive to be like the Olsen Twins you have serious issues.

  16. 16 hope November 21, 2007 at 1:09 am

    lol, mnet.

    that’s such a stupid idea.

  17. 17 Meru November 21, 2007 at 1:09 am

    ^Agree with Jason.

    This came out of blue… if they’re desperate for attention, they should add five more girls and make another girl band, gasp!.

  18. 18 wannie November 21, 2007 at 1:19 am

    ony word… why?

  19. 19 Vanessaly November 21, 2007 at 1:21 am

    Uhm yeah their not even RELATED!

  20. 20 KyuMin November 21, 2007 at 1:31 am

    not gonna happen they may almost look the same but they aren’t going to be able to pull it off people must be crazy to think they’re the next tv twins

  21. 21 Jo November 21, 2007 at 2:34 am

    they dont even look the same…

  22. 22 Arie November 21, 2007 at 3:13 am

    OK.. so, which one is going to become anorectic?
    Bah ¬¬’

  23. 23 p November 21, 2007 at 3:20 am

  24. 24 Cutie November 21, 2007 at 3:26 am

    . . .

  25. 25 marmar November 21, 2007 at 3:29 am

    Is there really a show that’s gonna happen called “Korean Olsen Twins”?
    Are they asking for a lawsuit?

    This has to be one of the most stupidest ideas that Korea can come up with. What is up with Korea trying to copy Hollywood these days?

  26. 26 tok2006 November 21, 2007 at 4:14 am

    no!!! the world doesn´t bear other olsens….

  27. 27 Raye November 21, 2007 at 4:23 am

    What a dumbass idea.

  28. 28 Brina November 21, 2007 at 5:16 am

    LMAO I like how everyone here is talking sh*t about the Olsen Twins, when they are just normal. You can talk shit about Lindsay and Paris because thats what they want. But the Olsen Twins have been out of the spotlight for a while because they have been trying to keep out of it. They’ve been famous since they could crawl. I’m sure they didn’t have a choice then, but now they can’t get out of the spotlight. Of course their personal affairs are going to be aired all over television.
    Atleast they are doing something by TRYING to stay out of the public eye.

  29. 29 EM November 21, 2007 at 5:31 am

    jason, the HK twins are just a pop-GROUP which their company named them twins. from the beginning of their career they didn’t claim to be trying to be twins like what woori and hyorin are doing.

    stupid idea. mnet.
    like i mean seriously they’re not even related?
    EVEN IF THIS IS GONNA BE SOME WANNABE-TWIN SHOW, WHY NAME IT THAT SO EVERYBODY WOULD KNOW? omo.

  30. 30 hmmm? November 21, 2007 at 5:47 am

    Who told these girls they were pretty enough to become models? Now THAT person needs to get shot. My toes would beat them in a beauty contest.

  31. 31 Em November 21, 2007 at 5:48 am

    copycats~blah~ack! and also to the person above! From now I’m using my full name Em Kay.

  32. 32 Em Kay November 21, 2007 at 5:50 am

    they do kinda look like twins. maybe they had the same surgeon.

  33. 33 marmar November 21, 2007 at 5:58 am

    ^ LMAO they probably did, I wouldn’t put it pass them

  34. 34 DieuAn November 21, 2007 at 6:22 am

    What a shame…I mean, they sure can do better than that? Why the Olsen twins? Ew.

  35. 35 Jason November 21, 2007 at 6:40 am

    Hey Em, I know who the Twins are, and I also know their history as a group, and that Charlene and Gillian never claimed to be twins. (Duh, I included the link to their Wikipedia entry) That’s the whole reason I mentioned them in my comment on this post, which in case you didn’t read it is about “two unrelated stars trying so hard to look like identical twins.” But thanks for trying to act like you know more than me, it was kinda cute!

  36. 36 tangy November 21, 2007 at 7:21 am

    ah sa and ah gil never said they were twins
    it’s just they came up with a really retarded group name…haha

    i actually think this sounds interesting….fashions and trends in different countries…i’ll denfinitly watch it1

    i think the “twins” part is just to grab peoples attention

  37. 37 toocutedoggy November 21, 2007 at 7:34 am

    urr- Olsen is THE REAL indentical twin vs. a Wannabe Twin ? … =. =

  38. 38 janepak November 21, 2007 at 8:31 am

    Korean Olsen Twins ?!

    wtf.

    wannabe twins…LAME!

  39. 39 lazybum November 21, 2007 at 9:36 am

    lol… wth??? come up with something original damn it!!

  40. 40 Chee November 21, 2007 at 9:50 am

    Sounds interesting…I would to see what will happen to these unrelated twins. It’s stupid that they didn’t get REAL twins to do it and that they named it after the Olsen twins…keh keh…but I would like to know what will happen to them though…

  41. 41 to AYA... November 21, 2007 at 10:07 am

    uhm… olsen twins are identical twins. what are you talking about haha.. ok one died her hair brown and the other stayed blonde. that’s the only difference but they ARE identical. why else would tey both be on FULL HOUSE as one character ? no one noticed which was which.

    btw, these girls kinda resemble one another, only cuz it’s a far distant photo.. if it was more clear and closeup, i don’t know…

  42. 42 Uhm. Wait. November 21, 2007 at 10:33 am

    THE OLSENS ARE FRATERNAL TWINS.
    JUST BECAUSE THEY LOOK ALIKE DOESN’T MAKE THEM IDENTICAL.

    kthxbye.

  43. 43 hannah November 21, 2007 at 10:45 am

    right…
    its sad cuz they’re not even RELATED
    and if you’re vision is to be like the olsen twins… then i cannot have respect. haha

  44. 44 chiaye November 21, 2007 at 11:23 am

    Chantelle: This is…so sad…When you strive to be like the Olsen Twins you have serious issues.

    Arie: OK.. so, which one is going to become anorectic? Bah ¬¬’

    As much as i like the original olsen twins in their younger years, these two comments were ironic and hilarious at the same time.

    lawsuit here it comes~

  45. 45 Annie November 21, 2007 at 11:35 am

    This is ridiculous.

  46. 46 anonymous November 21, 2007 at 11:48 am

    olsen twins

  47. 47 suga November 21, 2007 at 12:01 pm

    lol whos Woori anyways? perhaps she should get a nose job to if they want to look so much alike -.-

  48. 48 babycakes November 21, 2007 at 12:20 pm

    haha they’re both ugly and i don’t know who either of them are. if they want to get their 15 sec of fame i think they would have had better luck streaking across the stage.

  49. 49 Hairclips November 21, 2007 at 12:26 pm

    huh. lets just keep all the bad comments away and see what turns out first.

  50. 50 sasuke November 21, 2007 at 12:33 pm

    They are so much prettier than the Olsen twins! Why bother trying to look like anorexic frizzy bums who can’t even act?

  51. 51 uhuh November 21, 2007 at 1:27 pm

    wuhahahha kinda pathetic!

  52. 52 Ann*e November 21, 2007 at 1:55 pm

    oh my gosh. that’s really weird.
    i’ll probably never watch that.
    >.<

  53. 53 shanny November 21, 2007 at 6:39 pm

    LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Who got put in charge here?

    “Youre in big trouble mister!”

  54. 54 Saebin November 21, 2007 at 7:47 pm

    why follow olsen twins? they’re not like great or anything. lol

  55. 55 Cat November 21, 2007 at 8:42 pm

    Lmfao. Since they haven’t lived together all their lives and learned to deal with one another… THEY’RE GOING TO GET SO SICK OF ONE ANOTHER!!

    The Olsen twins cannot be replaced… unless suddenly they become multimillionaires with their own clothing line and a billion badly acted films. :D Oh yeah, and a history of Full House. (hahaha, it’d be funny if they’re in Full House 2)

  56. 56 junsufan November 21, 2007 at 9:56 pm

    LMAO..whatever..
    they’re cute..especially hyorin . :p

  57. 57 mawee November 21, 2007 at 10:51 pm

    ohemgee~ that’s just a frikkin stupid idea !!!
    okay theyre not even on the same level with the olsen twins’ fashion sense ! and if U wannabe like the olsen twins then sniff some coke up yo head..! this is just too pathertic.

  58. 58 redbraces November 22, 2007 at 12:07 am

    that is so pathetic. gimme a break. i’m korean and i still think that kind of attempt at globalization is retarded. wow. so desperate for fame…

  59. 59 rofl November 22, 2007 at 2:38 am

    someone, please shoot them in e head…

    twins?? like wtf?

    if they were 2 be wannabes of hilton and her richie friend, they might pull it off with some scandals…

    but as twins? hell, NO!! they arent even related.
    who came up with e damn idea?

  60. 60 Dovey November 22, 2007 at 7:00 pm

    My god…can’t they find something better to do? For one, they are not actual twins so why bother trying? And secondly, I feel they are trying to gain popularity by doing this, without any regards to the real Olsen twins in AMERICA.

  61. 61 hk November 22, 2007 at 7:08 pm

    Poor girls…

  62. 62 kellz November 23, 2007 at 1:04 am

    lordy..

    are they serious???

    someone stop the show!!it’s gonna friggin embarrass Asia.

    *screams*

    shows like these are totally pushing back Korean stars that are trying to make it in the USA.With shows like Korean Olsen Twins, people would think twice about stars like J.Lim, G Soul, Min,Rain,Se7en.

    please don’t tell me there will be a show called “The Korean Simple Life”.

    *shoots self*

  63. 63 Hana May 11, 2008 at 3:34 pm

    This is sort of like China’s celebrity actresses/singers The Twins: Charlene and Gillian, who are not at all related. They don’t even look alike, at least not to me. They almost always do everything together, albums, movies, etc. And they’re pretty successful in China.

  64. 64 koreanfanatic November 23, 2008 at 9:38 pm

    Yeah, they almost look like twins or sisters. Correction, the girl w/ Woori is not Min Hyo Rin, she first debuted w/ that name but now she changed her name into Min Hyo Lyn. Anyway, she still is gorgeous!
