Article: Being pretty and handsome isn't enough lately, even celebrities need 'education specs'

1. [+3,036, -136] It's true, I'm tired of seeing airheaded celebrities

2. [+2,627, -154] I'd rather celebrities have a certain level of education

3. [+305, -26] I think it's funny that people are expecting celebrities to have super education stats. It's like requiring a professor to be pretty or handsome. In the end, it should be about whether you have the talent or skill required of the job... I think it's because our society forces people to be above average in everything. I'd much rather prefer a dumb celebrity over an untalented one unfit for her job.

4. [+297, -25] Not necessarily true, Won Bin has been living off of his face alone for his entire life

5. [+252, -35] Have you noticed that celebrities with good education backgrounds tend to be untalented... Kim Tae Hee, Kim Jung Hoon...

6. [+235, -19] Being talented in your field of work is more important. Who cares if you're smart or went to a good college if it isn't applicable to your job? Sure it can help create a certain type of image for you but an actor should be recognized for his acting talents and the same for singers.

7. [+213, -20] Education stats don't matter to celebrities. Jung Woo Sung is a junior high school graduate and Yoo Jae Suk dropped out of college and look how well they're doing. For celebrities, it's skills and character that matters.

8. [+190, -11] As if education would even matter to someone with a face like Won Bin.

9. [+192, -19] Kim Tae Hee's career definitely benefit from her being a Seoul University student ㅋㅋㅋ Back when she debuted, it was a big deal that a Seoul University woman was becoming a celebrity..

10. [+170, -11] Ehh, come on. Talents and looks matter more to a celebrity... if they happen to have supplemental stats like a good education, then sure it can add to their image but it's not necessary.

11. [+132, -21] Being a celebrity must be so tiring.. have to look good, be talented, be educated..

12. [+160, -51] 'agg' Suzy probably hates this article
