Kim A-joong is the new face for ETN channel

20071228_kimajoong

After her hit movie 200lb Beauty, endorsements for Pantene Shampoo and hitting the red carpet at major award shows, Kim A-joong has taken another step to represent the face for ETN (Entertainment Television Network) in Korea. Now that’s a huge step in her career.

Is she another celeb so desperate for exposure that she has to resort to being the face of a celebrity TV channel? Are there no other celebrities to report on?

The plastic fantastic contender’s mug will be seen on the ETN channel and ETN internet site (in Korean) in 2008 January.

    that’s a ridiculous photo with the “fluff” pushing her hair forward ….

    I always thought is was an entertainer’s duty to get exposure… isnt part of their job to be ‘known’? I’m not really surprised when a celeb does something for ‘attention’… I mean, isnt that how they get fans and become more popular?

    LOL!! With her white attire she looks even more like the white flying dragon thingy from Neverending Story!!!!!! ROFL

    she looked really, really, really pretty in 200 pound beauty. so pretty in fact that i was jealous of her. because she could sing and act as well. but recently, she’s looking too plastic. i guess she paid a couple visits to her plastic surgeon after the movie. *sigh.

    @Candycane:

    I thought she looked insanely plastic in that movie. I kept trying to figure it out but everything about her face looked non..asian? or something. Especially the scene when she just got the makeover, and she’s trying clothes on in the mirror. She looked just like Rachel Mcadams to me..

    i think that kim ah-joong’s a good role model…
    sorta….
    sometimes she looks plastic.
    that’s true…

  13. 13 nx512 December 29, 2007 at 1:56 pm

    sell out.

    she still looks pretty though :)

  14. 14 eugene December 29, 2007 at 2:37 pm

    someone has a good plastic surgeon…

  15. 15 HATEJJH December 29, 2007 at 2:42 pm

    that someone is definitely not her LOL

    joking aside, she still looks fine in a plastic way in this pic, but in other pics, she looked horridly freakish, I’ll be looking forward to seeing her face melt in like 10 years

  16. 16 for real December 29, 2007 at 2:56 pm

    someone commented that she looks “nonasian.” I don’t know what you mean by that.
    I think you meant she looks “unnatural.”
    She looks 110% asian and also very natural for an unnatural.

    Stupid ppl like to imply that to be beautiful is to be western or “nonasian” as if asians altogether are ugly ppl.

  17. 17 yea uh huh December 29, 2007 at 3:25 pm

    hahah good role model….okay.

    I know a lot about the korean entertainment business because a few of my friends are celebrities or daughters of directers, etc.

    Let’s just say that Kim Ajoong is a very, very bad girl. No one will believe me if I tell you so I’ll just leave it at that.

  18. 18 Brina December 29, 2007 at 3:29 pm

    ^ I never meant to imply that, I was actually looking for the correct word to use. “Unnatural” is much better. Thanks.
    I didn’t mean to come off like that. I think all women are beautiful. I just used the wrong word. =)

  19. 19 yetaz December 29, 2007 at 3:38 pm

    Rachel McAdams..that’s a no-no..she’s way to gorgeous to be compared to this plastic junkie.

  20. 20 angie December 29, 2007 at 3:58 pm

    Most of the time i was swoooning over Ju JinMo in ‘200 Pounds Beauty’ . I never find her pretty..but it was a fun movie.

  23. 23 Bubblez December 29, 2007 at 7:33 pm

    I loved 200 lbs. beauty and i didnt even know Kim Ah Joong before. Well actually she did look familiar and it took quite a few min. to remember she was in some of the movies i had previously watched before. Anyways… i think she’s gorgeous and she CAN sing! Envious already. Btw, what’s up with the outfit and her hair like that? *rolls eyes* Looks pretty decent, okay-ish i guess.

  24. 24 xxx December 29, 2007 at 10:11 pm

    yeah, me too. i like her movie.. and lol, she has a nice voice.. haha!~ she gained a lot from that movie.. it was a hit.. haha..

  25. 25 Yin December 30, 2007 at 12:49 am

    Wow, it seems as though her eye makeup isn’t that great, Her eyes are kinda bloodshot. Or maybe its those circle lens..

  30. 30 Shanny December 30, 2007 at 6:40 am

    yeah pantene is great–if you want your hair to fall out from the perfume they pound into it

  31. 31 lalala December 30, 2007 at 7:02 am

    i like pantence actually, i use it everyday and my hair doesn’t really fall out that much. i like the smell of it too lol. anyway but if i use tresume, now that’s different. my hair fall out so much that it scarce me. so it’s depend on the people i guess.

    gross. why can’t the korean media ever pick naturally pretty celebs who don’t visit the plastic surgeon every 5 seconds? why can’t the korean media pick someone of TALENT, for god’s sake?! jeez.
