Miss A Best face Ranking


Oh the girls of Miss A
So much promise in the beginning, so many expectations
The best debut song from any Korean girl group I have ever seen. 
But it all was shortly lived as song after song after their successful debut, never lived up to the success of their first single "Bad girl Good girl". 
When it was evident that neither Min, Jia, or Fei had what it takes to at least make it into variety shows, it was evident that the group as a whole wasn't going to be the big 'it' group people had been expecting them to be.





Yet, I still created this list as Miss A is still a very popular group and some of their members are relevant AF.



So here we go~












4th place goes to (Last place :[ )

Min 
(Little minion)

Why? Sorry for being blunt but she is just too short and wide
and she is just not proportionate.
Her height wouldn't be so obvious if her face was small but mmmm if you've seen her you can tell that isn't the case. Her face is way too round like a full moon and her legs are too short and chunky.

When I first saw her in the team I thought she would at least be the really cool dancer
but Fei is wayyyy better than her at it, so I thought ok then maybe she can rap but nope that wasn't it either and she is definitely not the lead singer in the group.

I am really at a loss as to why JYP was so adamant on making her debut. 
I keep thinking that maybe it had something to do with the fact she had been a trainee for so long and felt bad.

Still, she is not ugly but when compared to soooo many other girl group members she is definitely lacking in the looks department.

So I'm sorry girl, 4th place it is.











3rd place goes to (First Guess please)

Fei
(Awkward/Talented Chinese kid)


Why? I know I know everyone is always saying she is second prettiest in Miss A,
but although she is talented and I'm sure a nice girl she isn't that interesting or beautiful. She is pretty and has a really nice body but she is just very plain looking.

Her lips for some reason bother me. They are kind of stretched out and full but not in a nice way, and the orange-blond hair color choice is not my favorite for her.
I think she looks better with darker hair.
Maybe a dark mahogany brown would suit her better.
Definitely no orange or brass color for her. 

A lot of people  say if JYP gave her the support they give Suzy, she would be as famous as her but I really doubt it. Believe me I love a tan beauty but there is not much coming from within to help her stand out. She is very awkward and whenever I see her on an interview
I feel like she would rather be anywhere but there.
It might be the language barrier but I think she is really shy and her smile makes me feel bad for her because it really feels like she is always uncomfortable.

So yeah that's why I couldn't honestly put her as second place.
I don't just go with what everyone else say ;)














2nd place place already (Lovinggggg it)

Jia
(Cool Chinese Kid)

Why? She is unique and cool but although not beautiful. Due to her unique look, I would say I'm more drawn to her than I am drawn to Min or Fei. Jia is a cool Chinese chick and her style is more up my alley than the other 3.

I think her biggest physical flaw to me is her nose. It's flat and wide and that makes for difficult beauty shots so as expected she has very few of those. Also her body type is cool for some girls because it seems like the type to fit clothes easily since she is so skinny BUT me no likey.

She is way too flat from both ends and sides. Literally an 8 year-old boy type of body.

But still can't deny she has a very awesome personal style which is cool in my book and enough to put her in a very impressive second place.















1st place (Easiest 1st place to guess)

Suzy
(Queen of Queens)

Why? I mean c'mon the girl could have oily dirty hair, a booger coming out of her nose, and a huge zit on her forehead and she would still be 
one of the greatest Korean beauties of today. 

Haters say she is "plain" (WTH :O) but if she is plain then please God make me plain.
To me she will leave an iconic image after her for decades to come.
And I'm not even going to get on her personality because the girl is an angel.

But even if she was a bitch I would still have to recognize her beauty because
she is seriously a queen.

Keep slaying queen and make that dough because you are one of he few celebrities who seems completely sincere with everything she says or does in front and behind he camera.

KoreaBoos. Korea’s lovers. Wannabe Koreans.

There are many names one can give to this phenomenon
koreaboos, korealovers, oppa gangman style, nerds, koreancrazed, other weeaboo. 
But  "rose by any other name would smell as sweet" and whatever you want to call it, one thing is for sure Koreaboos are on the rise.

If you’ve been following the Korean entertainment industry, it’s 99% likely you’ve come across some of these specimens. So...

What is a Koreaboo and what's wrong with being one?



Koreaboo – Someone with usually very high and delusional images/perceptions of Korea. They tend to
  
  • Be really involved in K-Pop, K-dramas, K-Varieties, pretty much K-everything!!
  • Have very little social interactions in the real world. No friends that they can actually high five :/
  • Idolize Korea and anything to do with it (ohhh Koreans don’t poop, they release rose petals when they go to the toilet)
  • Be very immature and usually in their teen years (Not always, but in most cases)
  • Deny they are Korea’s boos (Me? No, I’m not Koreaboo oppa-ya)
  • Say in more than one instance they wish they were Korean (Why can’t I be in Korean and stalk oppa in peace?)
  • Always make excuses to argue that Korea and Koreans are better than other countries/places  J (Even their own! This is what makes them more detestable to me -_- have some love for your country you little shits)
  • Want to move to Korea and marry oppa/unnie/ ANY Korean!! (Ohh my dream is to be in Korea, marry a Korean, and have Korean babies, and of course go to the toilet and release rose petals as a true Korean would) ;)
  • Hate on their own countries/people because compared to Korea, they are total low-class and not cute at all compared to all the Koreans who happen to be perfect.

So now that you’ve been able to identify a Koreaboo let’s go into the next question

What leads to someone to become a Koreaboo?

  •  First of all there can be many and unique reasons for this to happen. Many have to do with the fact that many of koreaboos are still kids (<18). So it should come as no surprise that they are easily impressed, and can over-generalize any new trend they discover on the Internet. Age definitely plays a factor on becoming a Koreaboo from what I’ve seen before. After all, tween and teen year are a very susceptible and impressible age to be in.I’m pretty sure there are adults in the Koreaboos bandwagon (If you are one, what are you doing with your life?!), but most of them are just immature kids who still need to grow up and get out a little more.
  • Second, a lot of these kids are socially lacking meaning that they might be more of the introvert/nerdy/lonely type. That is why when they find a new sub-culture, they become so attached to it. This can be seen with many other subcultures such anime lovers, star-wars nerds, etc. I find it that a lot of these people burying their entire lives into a fandom are people with very few/zero real-life friends that can take them out of their trance. This is why when they find a ‘new world’ online, they completely immerse in it.
  • Third, they have had a hard time immersing in the society that they are in. Even if they have friends, they feel like they don’t fit in, or feel a constant uncomfortable feeling inside regarding their social skills. Most Koreaboos have no life outside the internet and live very secluded lives. Perhaps they go to school, and say hi to some people, but most of their free time is spent in their room alone with their computers as their only friend. Koreaboos tend to spend all their weekends in their rooms watching Korean dramas, variety, MV’s etc. Dreaming away to the day they are finally found by their fav K-Pop star

Again, factors vary person to person, but after days of research and years of reading koreaboos testimonials and of course my own brief experience as a koreaboo I can tell you that most of these are at least partially correct.

So are you a koreaboo? If you are, what are the reasons that made you one? Let’s gather some data here for future generations ;)
