1. [+1,370, -67] I wish we can reach a world where everyone, fat or skinny, is free of judgment from the eyes of others...

2. [+1,213, -56] Who cares if she's fat or skinny, she's an actress and all that matters is whether she can act, and all that matters is if a singer can sing, and all that matters is if an employee works hard.

3. [+1,194, -48] It feels like our country places heavy priority on weight when it comes to 'self management'. Education, health, and even emotional balance all falls under the category of taking care of yourself. Don't take care of yourself for others but for yourself.

4. [+69, -13] She's right. I don't know why people judge laziness based on your body. Sure, you can gain weight if you're not very active, but you can also gain weight from an active lifestyle too. A lot of your weight comes from genetics as well and it's wrong to judge someone's entire lifestyle based on their weight.

5. [+65, -11] Wow, her statement is really refreshing~ very cool of her

6. [+56, -0] It's true that society prefers skinny, pretty women, and handsome, tall, men. However, none of us have the right to judge anyone else for being fat, ugly, or short. How dare you think you have the right to someone's business like that? How can everyone in the world be pretty, tall, and rich? Personal standards are up to you but those standards don't give you the right to put others down.

7. [+45, -7] Haters are always trying to beat celebrities down but they don't realize that celebrities themselves have a lot of experience out in society and are basically professionals at dealing with people like them ㅋㅋ haters can never beat a real celebrity.

8. [+22, -3] I'm so tired of people judging others for their looks and bodies. Just hearing it makes me go crazy.

9. [+22, -2] The best reply is right, I truly wish for a world like that. Jae Sook unni is a charming actress already so please don't pay them any mind and continue living with fighting ^^

10. [+21, -2] Please don't call fat people lazy. There are a ton of skinny people who are lazy... and who cares if someone's fat or lazy? Mind your own business. And this actress is right, it's not like haters ever had the intention of seeing her as beautiful to begin with.
