    To address the Twitter criticism, the video is titled 'Why Hoyeon is attractive to a Western Audience,' not to a Korean audience or an East Asian one. She fits Western beauty standards and the West is a melting pot of different racial groups and ethnic features. Twitter incorrectly strawmans this into suggesting that the video is fitting her to Eurocentric beauty standards which is incorrect. Eurocentric standards prefer features closer in shape and size to the Eastern Beauty standards, so that is false.
    A personal favourite comment of mine: 'She's hot because she's hot... now stop????'
    "She can't be attractive if she's not white"
    That is not the message of this video at all. There are plenty of WOC models much like her for IMG and Wilhelmina with the exact same features but of native american or south asian ancestry, we've even done an interview with one of them. The focus is not on her skin colour but her facial features, which unsurprisingly are not exclusive to a particular race. Having 'wide cheekbones' and a 'well-formed jaw' cannot be claimed by a particular race, and the message certainly isn't that shes attractive exclusively for fitting a certain beauty standard. Rather, her look is unique from what we've come to see of Korean actressess (from a Western perspective), as these facial features are rarely cast for the reasons given, and are opted for a softer, cuter looking face by directors. I'm happy that we're seeing a fresh new set of faces.
    Twitter likes to use a lot of words out of context, because it's an echo chamber of misinformation:
    🌑 Eugenics: a set of beliefs and practices that aim to improve the genetic quality of a human population, historically by excluding people and groups judged to be inferior or promoting those judged to be superior.
    No where in the video, or ever on the channel does it promote excluding less attractive people, people with disabilities, those with deformities or significant disadvantages in social and dating environments. Every video, right from the very first has highlighted the psychology behind why as humans, we discriminate based on looks, to raise awareness of the double-standards that exist in our society.
    From the very first beauty culture videos discussing ethnocentrism and its impact on beauty standards: ruclips.net/video/dzqM0e09CZc/видео.html
    To acknowledging cross-cultural similarity in beauty standards between Sengalese tribes and Scottish Immigrants: ruclips.net/video/Q2afARZAiLI/видео.html
    This channel has always been as inclusive as possible, and virtually every beauty standards video or discussion on beauty, includes as many different geographical regions and ethnicities as possible to fit in a 10 minute format.
    🌑Phrenology: Phrenology, the study of the conformation of the skull as indicative of mental faculties and traits of character.
    One of the first, the very first things you learn in first-year psychology is differentiating the outdated methods of phrenology as proposed by Franz Gall, from modern-day psychology practice. The definition of phrenology refers specifically to the attribution of mental characteristics, where originally, Gall believed that the shape of the Neuro-Cranium (the part that houses the brain) was influenced by how much you used certain aspects of your soft-tissue brain to push the skull outwards in those regions.
    This is very far from modern-day anthropometry (the science that defines physical measures of a person's size, form, and functional capacities). In other words, anthropometry is an actual branch of science you can find in your local anthropology department in your local university, whereas phrenology is an outdated practise based on in-tanglible evidence (i.e. thoughts, mental ability).
    🌑This channel is racist/fethishizing/fatphobic
    No one on our team, in the entirety of the qoves team, is a straight white male (that should not even have to matter, but twitter's facts are wrong, big surprise). From the start of the channel, as a POC myself, all we've done is focus on increasing inclusivity in discussions of beauty. In the past our company has produced AI that addresses the issue of black and brown skin tones being discriminated against by machine algorithms to improve fairness (qoves.com). We've worked on skincare that specifically caters to under-represented skin tones and ethnic groups, we've covered beauty standards from South Asia and East to show the differences in how they address beauty, we did our research exhaustively for those videos, much like any other.
    There is an element of beauty that is subjective, and a part that is objective, much like with all things in life. There are certain design elements in a car that make it more striking, or 'sporty' than a Kia Caravan, and designers call this a design language (Donut Media: ruclips.net/video/2w9Ae44iWUA/видео.html). The same can be said for faces, as plastic surgeons, anthropologists, psychologists, dentists and orthodontists have known since early antiquity. As covered on the channel, certain traits can give a face a more 'neotenous' or child-like look, compared to those that give it a sophisticated and 'high-fashion' look. You know this, I know this, Tiktok covers this extensively, so why the double-think in saying that beauty is purely subjective?
    🌑 Race Science
    What the hell is race science??? I must have taken the wrong degree.

    In Asia, her face and beaurty would be considered strong. Different Asian countries tend to prefer softer, gentler and kinder structure of faces. She's the type of face that will be cast for serious or action roles, sharp and modern couture, and rarely for those Kdrama, love centric roles.

    Her lips immediately catch my eye and her eyes look so fierce due to the positive tilt but the other neotenous features evens it out. Her skin also looks incredible. Very striking and memorable. Also agree with other comments saying that her shorter hair looks much better than the longer hair imo.

    It's amazing how people just dismiss this analysis but it's interesting. If you keep an eye on the modelling industry, you wouldn't expect her to stand out this big, at all. I knew her before squid game and if you see her on the runway, you wouldn't even take a second look at her. When I finished the show, I was more amazed in her acting skills because I knew it was her debut acting gig. Usually runway models who turned actresses don't do well. Also, as an Asian myself as well I didn't expect that much people from the West to find her attractive. That's why this video was interesting to me.

Looking at the first picture you used of her where she has long hair for example, she looks generic with no "character" to her, nothing really stands out about her in that pic.

      In Eastern beauty standards it’s common to see, and desirable, to have those lines under your eyes. Koreans know the beauty trend as “aegyo-sal” and, if you watch any makeup tutorials by both Korean men and women, you’ll see that they purposefully accentuate the feature to appear more youthful and bright. Don’t mistake the “aegyo-sal” for tired eye bags though.

      I noticed in south Korea when a girl has an "ugly" feature but is still seen as attractive, the girl usually have a babyface or The rest of their features are very delicate. They might have slanted small eyes or high cheekbones, but their nose is tiny, lips are pouty, round cheeks and relatively short face.
      There was this pop idol Sohee who has slanted monolid eyes and slightly high cheekbones, But she was an IT girl for many years. And it was not for being talented lol or entertaining but for her looks! and she has a soft baby face.
      Devon Aoiki is also a excellent example of this! She has high cheekbones and slanted eyes (ugly features in Asia) but she's still considered attractive because she has a neotenous face.

    I know she was meant to look like “death” given the nature of the circumstances they’re in throughout this show but even with the exaggerated eye bags, all I could think every time she was onscreen is “wow she’s so striking.” She still looked like a model onscreen lol at least face wise since we didn’t really see her body up close besides when she was in the bathroom picking out the shard of glass that stabbed her in the stomach. She makes eye bags look so attractive. Yes, they made her look tired, but as someone with skin nowhere near as nice as hers I would look more than just a little tired if I had eye bags like that lol.

    No mention of the lips, even though puffy lips has long been big in the west to the extent that lips are not uncommonly injected to make them puff up. And that despite the described eastern standard, per photo comparison, of a thin upper lip, this lady has a very thick upper lip, indeed thicker than her lower, which is extremely uncommon. Lips are a very sensual thing indeed. Odd how much this was skipped. Think Scarlett Johansson. Lips count for a lot in beauty.

    What I’ve noticed is she’s most popular among women. Im sure she attracts men as well but majority of the praise comes from women regardless of sexuality. In fact many straight women are dawning on how they’d “go gay” for her which I haven’t seen that hype from then since ruby rose. I think the attraction like you mentioned is the boyish masculine charm/facial structure that is complemented by the plump lips and high cheekbones.

In East Asia, having strong features is usually not wanted, they prefer softer and delicate faces. I was actually surprised how many people complimented her for her looks because I loved her character but I didn't notice her that much in Squid Game.

    I think she's one of those people who became attractive bc the movie or show. She's a gorgeous woman don't get me wrong, but we easily get attracted to a character in her situation it's her Squid Game character. She's a modell she was known before (in the fashion industry) but she played a strong woman you can easily become a fan of that fictional character. Also when you see an interview she's a sweetheart totally different person than on the show people love that you can attached to her even more because of that. From the outside she's a tall slim lady (obviously bc she's a model) SK's ideal is like that + small face. Overall I think for many people her play and her persona makes her attractive rather than her physical appearance and because she has strong facial features (which in many countries don't count as an attractive point) you can easily become captivated by her.

    Because she's in one of the most popular show ever، definitely one of the reason. People's perspective is heavily subjected.
    Edit: Some of you guys in the reply should put my comment in a context, i clearly stated "one of the reason", not "the main reason". I don't care if you think she's attractive not because the show. She IS attractive and beautiful. And im not denying that.

    Being part Asian myself, I really love my wide cheekbones. They give me a striking, serious, angular appearance, yet my eyes are soft enough that I can still be warm and inviting. Results in a very mysterious look. This really helps in me get along with people in conversation, and then hitting them with new ideas they'd never considered before.
