Part of Korean celebrities daily life are the numerous shots taken of them.

While edited photos of them look regal, did these celebrities even go to the next level with these natural and unedited photos?

On September 22, a post about Korean Celebrities unedited photos/videos began trending on Teens Stories‘ community board under the title, “I think this quality makes actors look even more legendary.“

The netizen who posted said, “When actresses are in these kinds of photos, they look much more famous than in those super-high-quality, highly lightened and edited photos that make their skin tone disappear".

The netizen then added, "I'm not saying these pictures are bad, but they aren't great either, and they haven't been touched up much. But their faces stand out even more in these pictures."

The netizen then listed all the comments as the following:

Wow, Kim Hyesoo is really great.

Han Gain is really, really, really pretty.

No, but is Go Ara a doll? She's pretty as hell.

It's almost as if I'm seeing them in person.

Dior Suzyㅎㄷㄷ

Bare face, hair pulled back, third year of high school, broadcast camera, unedited, before debut, and she still looks this beautiful…

Kim Yoojung is the person I am most envious of. Her look is really well-known. I don't care about her at all, but why do her eyes look so shiny?

What are your thoughts on this?

Seo Ye Ji is facing major backlash after her surprising appearance on SNL Korea 7.

On April 12, Seo Ye Ji made her long-awaited return to variety shows by guest-starring on Coupang Play's SNL Korea Season 7.

Before the show started, she made jaws drop by joking, "I'll gaslight the SNL crew and make it fun," referencing her own past controversies.

During the "Seo Ye GPT" segment, Seo Ye Ji played an AI that helped Kim Won Hoon nail a company presentation. She then made a sharp comment, saying, "The truly embarrassing thing is sitting quietly and being talked about behind your back. I've experienced that a lot," hinting at the criticism she’s faced.

In the "Eve Hair Salon" skit, Seo Ye Ji acted as a salon director and joked about her past "Kim Ddak Ddak" scandal, where she was accused of controlling her then-boyfriend Kim Jung Hyun. When a character mentioned her stiff neck, she responded, "It's firm," making everyone laugh but also stirring mixed feelings.

Fans were shocked to see Seo Ye Ji using her past scandals as comedy material, especially since it’s been eight years since her last variety show appearance. Many pointed out that joking about serious accusations like gaslighting and academic fraud might have gone too far.

The controversy over Seo Ye Ji’s education also came back into the spotlight. She had previously claimed she studied abroad in Spain, but in 2021 it was revealed she never actually attended the university she mentioned.

Her agency explained she was accepted but didn’t attend because of her career in Korea, but many netizens weren’t convinced.

On SNL Korea, Seo Ye Ji even played a character who lied about her past to impress a boyfriend, making fans think of her real-life academic background scandal.

After the episode aired, reactions online exploded. Some comments included, "Falsifying academic background is a crime," "This was too much," "It was funny though," "Let’s forgive it since it’s black comedy," and "Why was Seo Ye Ji the first guest?"

Seo Ye Ji’s bold jokes have definitely split public opinion, with some calling it brave and others saying it only reopened old wounds.
