Kim Jae Dong was cursed with bad genes…

Kimjaedong_20080313_popseoul

Some families are blessed with good genes while some are not. Kim Jae Dong and his sister are examples of the latter. To make matters worse, his sister looks exactly like him.

At least we know now that they are both natural.

    PS, you are saying this just to get on people nerves, right?if not, I feel sorry for you and sad that you think this way.

    What type of news is this? That’s harsh.

  6. 6 Hannah March 18, 2008 at 11:16 am

    Seriously, that’s so mean. This isn’t even news.

  7. 7 E March 18, 2008 at 11:27 am

    i love kim jae dong…he’s so cute!

  8. 8 Pepe March 18, 2008 at 11:28 am

    That’s really mean of you guys! He and his sister look fine to me. Gosh popsoul, your getting very cynical

  9. 9 seri March 18, 2008 at 11:38 am

    lol, wht i dont get is that you hate on people who were plastisized, but here you are, making fun of a perfectly normal man in the entertainment business who has more talent the most of them put together.

    so he isnt pretty. at least he’s not on stage making a fool of himself. he’s genuinely funny and hilarious and his sister seems like a nice person to be with.

  10. 10 ziziebrown March 18, 2008 at 11:40 am

    eh… don’t say that to him…! I like him..!

  11. 11 hwanheeholic March 18, 2008 at 11:55 am

    aww, i love kim jae dong!
    he’s so cute!! :)

  12. 12 Kiki March 18, 2008 at 12:04 pm

    I have to say this, I agreed with coldfeetwarmheart.
    Average Korean might not be the best looking group of people in the world but they do have culture and manners, unlike most people! AKA Popseoul! And they also produce a very good entertainment business, I know a couple of Korean, and I should know how they really are inside.

  13. 13 Ann*e March 18, 2008 at 12:29 pm

    aww! that guy is so funny though!

  14. 14 Anna March 18, 2008 at 12:41 pm

    Yet he probably makes more money than you and she certainly wont do bad herself… and all you have is a website that writes about stories that are days or weeks old.

    yea… poor them.

  15. 15 daoud March 18, 2008 at 1:09 pm

    Misplaced anger. The writers behind Popseoul are so ugly, they need someone to take their anger out on. They can’t do that in public since they’re too ugly, thus they resort to this site. =/

  16. 16 randomo March 18, 2008 at 1:16 pm

    wow, I’m not going to lie.. that was mad rude

  17. 17 jejuisboy March 18, 2008 at 1:41 pm

    LOL I visit the comments page for this article and I read about people putting down a popseoul writer and calling her ugly AND at the same time says it was wrong for her to call the two siblings ugly. I stand amused :) .. so priceless~

  18. 18 yohoo March 18, 2008 at 1:49 pm

    what is in the face?
    psh
    he have a good life
    he has his sisters that love him
    and he is good at his work
    i like him, so funny and sweet
    go jaedong oppa!
    fighting!!!
    he’s cute!

  19. 19 yow March 18, 2008 at 2:11 pm

    so what if they’re cursed with what you so called “bad genes”?!… that statement of yours was really mean. but anyways, it was just yer opinion w/c is obviously true. but still it’s was really mean. haha. :D

  20. 20 jaejinlover09 March 18, 2008 at 2:41 pm

    i think that was a little too harsh….

  21. 21 yearight March 18, 2008 at 2:47 pm

    How dare you popseoul, I cannot stand your posts nowadays.

  22. 22 penguin_x3 March 18, 2008 at 2:49 pm

    even though he’s not good looking at least he’s extremely funny and smart. Looks don’t always mean anything. All the good looking people will probably get old and wrinkly soon. I mean looks only last for so long

  23. 23 penguin_x3 March 18, 2008 at 2:53 pm

    ps…he’s not even that bad looking though it you look at him, his personality really shines and i think that makes him cute

  24. 24 OKL March 18, 2008 at 3:24 pm

    OMG..Taking the appearance of someone as a joke? That was seriously too mean. The writer for this particular article, an advice for you – PLEASE REFLECT – Put yourself in their shoes.What if someone take your appearance as a joke too? how would you feel?

    Even though it was just pure comment but is far too much.
    “Think before you do even though its just for an entertainment – you may just hurt someone.”

  25. 25 ... March 18, 2008 at 3:48 pm

    honestly i don’t see how Kim Jae Dong is unatractive at all…i wouldn’t call him hot or anything but i don’t see how he is ugly in anyway…

  26. 26 pop-low March 18, 2008 at 4:28 pm

    you should make a new poll: how low can popseoul go?

    cos as some already said, this is new record low. bashing ppl based on their looks and even call it cursed! that is plain low, rude, mean, stupidly foolish statement from a fellow countrymen. you’re korean aren’t you? and bashing your own ppl like that?

    tactic to get numbers of visit? perhaps. but still, stupidly foolish statement :) perhaps it is popseoul who is cursed with bad genes.. bad genes which caused popseoul to have bad mouth and bad manner

  27. 27 lyd March 18, 2008 at 4:55 pm

    you are so evil.

  28. 28 zinrokh March 18, 2008 at 5:11 pm

    Wow, this is a new low.

    Kim Jae Dong is not ugly, he’s average looking.
    Articles like this are what drive people to plastic surgery. Its hypocritical how you criticize someone’s look, then when they go for plastic surgery to fix it, you blast them too.

    I really don’t know what to say. This was beyond low. This article should not have been up here.

  29. 29 anonym March 18, 2008 at 5:28 pm

    that’s mean! to the writer –> have u look into the mirror recently? u know…u might look like him or worse!

  30. 30 All Korean's have the Ugly Gene B4 Surgery March 18, 2008 at 5:35 pm

    He he.

  31. 31 ayoe March 18, 2008 at 6:25 pm

    I LOVE KIM JAE DONG!!
    He’s a funny man… I more respect him and his sister rather than beautiful actor/actresses but PLASTIC!!

    …. How do you go from bashing Kim Tae Hee for perpetuating the “small 12 cm face” then in the VERY NEXT POST completely bring down a very well-respected, intelligent MC and his non-celebrity sister for not fulfilling the same ridiculous standards of beauty?

    A gossip site still needs to maintain a level of credibility and unbiased reporting I’m all for INTELLIGENT social criticism but the level of schizophrenic UNECESSARY bashing on this website is ridiculous, especially as of late. Maybe I missed the sarcasm alluding to some “deep” insight about Korean society but there is no denying that this was a pathetic attempt to generate some controversy and comments. If this blog is trying to become a witty, intelligent gossip site, it needs to amp up the clever commentary and drop the terrible grammar and hypocrisy. There’s a fine line between scathingly truthful criticism and hate mongering and you just crossed it.

    Exactly! Thank you.

    Sure, make fun of his looks, but I bet he’s much more intelligent and a whole lot funnier than these pathetic writers (if you can call them writers).

  33. 33 S March 18, 2008 at 7:42 pm

    KJD is an awesome MC and nice guy, so why pick on him just because he doesn’t look like SSH who you adore?

    Also, its one thing to critique a celeb who is the spotlight and knows they will take some flak for one thing or another, fair or not but to critique his sister who isn’t? Thats the same as going up to some random person in the street and telling them they are butt ugly.

    She and KJD are not ugly people by a long shot. They look like nice decent people of whom there should be more of in the world.

  34. 34 Raihana March 18, 2008 at 8:01 pm

    They’re just normal looking folks to me..but to say they’re ‘cursed with bad genes’..wow..it’s pretty mean..

  35. 35 aksorpa March 18, 2008 at 8:34 pm

    He is a funny and beautiful man. His sister is also beautiful. If you are trying to be funny with this post it’s not working. You ask why there are no Koreans on Korean magazine covers – because you put Koreans down.

  36. 36 anonymous-y March 18, 2008 at 9:18 pm

    hey…that’s just mean.

  37. 37 jojo March 18, 2008 at 10:03 pm

    Good Genes? And I guess you have them? Please people!
    Good Genes is when you have a general rounding of all good assets – good personality, good health, intelligence, good morals and good looks. Looks isn’t the only factor. Grow up and stop bashing people so much. This guy and his sister look like ordinary people to me – where do you get off bashing them? They aren’t models walking the cat walk, so get a life.

  38. 38 coconut March 18, 2008 at 10:44 pm

    And this is news….. how???

    4 sentences total on “bad genes” and nothing else.
    Whoop-di-doo!! Couldn’t think of anything more interesting??

    FYI most people LIKE this guy.

    What a ridiculous post….

  39. 39 far March 18, 2008 at 11:12 pm

    i know you guys are doing this to get the comments but it’s getting pathetic. i really feel sorry for you guys, so here’s one. now go find real news or go play far away. pathetic.

  40. 40 Saebin March 18, 2008 at 11:36 pm

    i dont think you’re better off.

  41. 41 cafe maltese March 19, 2008 at 12:03 am

    If being a genius means you have bad genes, then the popseoul sisters must have some pretty mutated genes considering how lame this entry is. “I know you are, but what am I” thinks this entry is retarded.

  42. 42 fraulein March 19, 2008 at 12:29 am

    He may not look plastic fantastic like his showbiz peers but he’s one heck of a witty guy. I like to watch him trade barbs with han ji-min and the other co-hosts on entertainment weekly

    I’ve heard some people like him ‘cos he makes fun of his looks (or lack of it) which makes it endearing.

  43. 43 Dee March 19, 2008 at 12:34 am

    …and POPSEOUL was cursed with bad attitude,bad personality and most probbaly bad look am I right!

  44. 44 who? March 19, 2008 at 12:36 am

    hahaha watta heck! but this aint news mate

  45. 45 fraulein March 19, 2008 at 12:37 am

    He’s not a looker but he does not look ” ugly “. He looks more like the man in the street in seoul (or here in singapore), not like his plasticised showbiz peers.

    He’s used hearing comments about his face, but to include his sister in this ? I don’t know if she takes it as well as him.

    Being able to laugh at himself is cool too.

  46. 46 dB March 19, 2008 at 5:34 am

    I have this.. “low” rating where the lower number you get equals to how low you are in real life.

    I’Ve been following PS’s posts since like ages ago, and judging by the recent posts (se7en’s included), I must say that you’re

    SUB-ZERO.

    Whoa. That’s über low.

    If I include the act of deleting comments which aren’t up to your standard, what I can say is, get back to kindergarten. Learn more about moral.

    I don’t care if you live in the States or in Korea or anywhere else. If you think unnecessary bashing is “fresh entertainment & style”, I think you might need a sanity check.

  47. 47 Lulia March 19, 2008 at 6:10 am

    THATS NOT COOL! HES FREKEN HILARIOUS AND A RESPECTABLE MC. I LOVE TO WATCHING THE VARIETY SHOWS HE APPEARS ON, HE ALWAYS GIVES ME A GOOD LAUGH.

    FREEDOM OF SPEECH DOES HAVE ITS LIMITS YOU KNOW…..

    POPSEOUL! ….GO TOUCH YOURSELF!

  48. 48 plastic surgery rox March 19, 2008 at 6:37 am

    damn i am cursed with bad genes too >.<” fortunately ive still got plastic surgery as my last resort

  49. 49 aksorpa March 19, 2008 at 8:57 am

    I am happy to see so many comments bashing popseoul! It shows the readers of this site are not as shallow as the creators.

  50. 50 lOvE March 19, 2008 at 10:52 am

    100!!!!!!!!!!!!

    i love kim jae dong. he’s my favorite MC along with shin dong yup. not everything is about looks, you superficial losers. kim jae dong has a great personality, is humble, and funny. much kudos to him. besides, MC’s dont have to be handsome. it’s their personality and intelligence that count.

    moreover, there has to be “ugly” people in the world, as much as “pretty” people. If nearly everyone were “pretty”, then the few “ugly” ones would become “pretty”. ehh….does that make any sense?? it makes sense to me, lol.
