She screencapped a comment saying 'I'd believe it if you told me she was a Mongolian model' and wrote in response, "If you think I'm ugly, then just call me ugly. I can ignore comments like that like I've done so all along but seeing backhanded comments like this makes me feel uncomfortable. Everyone has their own individual beauty and it seems a lot of people aren't able to see that."

1. [+1,160, -82] It sounds more like she's putting down the beauty of Mongolians

2. [+1,064, -63] Well the concept/vibe of the picture makes her look like a Mongolian model... what's her problem? Just because someone said she looks Mongolian, she's assuming they're calling her ugly?

3. [+1,019, -49] Isn't it because the hair, the clothes are all giving off Mongolian vibes? Why is she assuming that the commenter is calling her ugly just because they said she looks Mongolian? If anyone's hating, it's her for assuming Mongolians are ugly

4. [+124, -7] No but you really are ugly... I have no idea how you ever became an actress

5. [+123, -0] Since when is "you look Mongolian" a hate comment???? The whole concept of this picture looks Mongolian from the clothes to the hair..

6. [+117, -7] You can barely call that a hate comment ㅋㅋㅋ

7. [+85, -1] So what's she trying to say? That Mongolian models are ugly?

8. [+66, -1] I love how she stayed quiet whenever the media kept saying she looked like that Japanese actress Aoi Yuu but now she's up in arms over someone saying she looks like a Mongolian model... She's ridiculous.

9. [+62, -1] Please don't put down Mongolians

10. [+39, -2] Mongolians would be offended if they heard this. There are a ton of beautiful Mongolian women. Actually, the ancestry between Mongolians and Koreans isn't even that far apart so what is she going on about? Doesn't she realize that as a model, her looks are at the forefront of her career? So of course people are going to judge and comment on her looks. A model getting mad over criticism for her looks is about the same ridiculousness as an actor getting mad over criticism for his acting.

11. [+38, -2] So grateful that SNS is always exposing people like her...

12. [+37, -0] And why does it bother you that someone said you look Mongolian?? Are Mongolian models beneath you???
