WHAT YOU SAY

[This page is closed to new input. --Ed.]

Hapas look just as good as caucasian or asian. do kelly Hu or Tia Carrera look better than, say, Natalie Portman or Leelee Sobieski.or zhangziyi, gong li, ming na wen? some have a preference for hapas. actually they have the exotic look, i mean, asian and caucasian beauty in the same time, isn't it cool? It's something strange to people. But all in all, they just look as good as asian, not better nor worse.

chinese in singapore are not really good looking although they are mixed w/ white and indian.In evry poll taken in Singapore, the most beautiful people in their opinions are from China, Hong Kong, or Japan. a singaporian hardly makes it to the list. It makes me wonder why even though a lot of entertainers in Singapore are hapas.

Michelle saram is chindian and she's not among the most beautiful people in Hong Kong cinema industry.

to eurasians r hot:
yes. eurasians ARE hot, but i think so are all other races. yep, and don't forget that it's really a personal thing. Maybe korean guy an du just don't have the same taste. as for myself, i believe in equal oppurtunity like anonymous. race is barely a factor.

to angelique: whoa, i always assumed there weren't many asians in indiana. am i correct? i live in So. CA, land of the Asian.
Half-Chyna Doll Sunday, May 12, 2002 at 23:05:58 (PDT)

an asian face can be as pure as water which i find very refreshing to look at. that's why i prefer asian look. usually, if caucasian traits appear on an asian face, the features look more rough.
kimheesun Sunday, May 12, 2002 at 22:09:03 (PDT)

I"m sure most korean gasoos and actors are 100 % korean and they are not mixed.
A few HK stars are mixed but most chinese actors in China and HK i know are 100 & chinese. the only mixed chinese guy i know is Takeshi Kaneshiro(half taiwanese half japanese).

asian girls are very attractive: Check out Kim HEE sUN.:) SHE'S gorgeous (more beautiful than kristen kreuk...:))
KIm Hee Sun Sunday, May 12, 2002 at 22:06:11 (PDT)

Hyori Lee is 100 % korean and she's so beautiful. she's one of the most beautiful girls i've seen in my whole life!!!!!!!
E Sunday, May 12, 2002 at 22:01:58 (PDT)

Cecilia Cheung is 100% chinese.
Kyoko fukada is 100% japanese.
Hsu chi is 100% chinese (btw, she's from Taiwan).
Christy chung is viet/chinese. but mixed asian is just like 100%asian by the way. i don't see the difference. then again, asians have been mixed together for thousands years. So are caucasians. I've seen w/ my own eyes and the most beautiful asian girls come from China and Hong Kong. anyone know some korean and japanese beauties plz provide me some links!

. "Often models and actors in Asia aren't only one type of Asian, but often a mix of Asian ethnicities or Eurasian."

*shake head* you obviouly don't know a lot of them.

korean guy Sunday, May 12, 2002 at 21:44:16 (PDT)

A mix of 2 or more asian ethnicities? that mean they are full asian. i don't see a difference btw a korean or a korean chinese or a chinese. all asians look pretty much the same. and no, not a lot of them are mixed. The korean stars listed above are 100 % korean (not mixed w/ chinese or japanese,..except jang dong gun, i heard he has thai blood but i'm not sure). Hk stars are mostly from shanghai or beijing and they are not mixed. the same w/ japanese stars. you don't know a lot of asian stars, right?
KHS Sunday, May 12, 2002 at 21:36:43 (PDT)

Eurasians are hot: you are not impressed w/ the asian look and that's fine. A lot of other people would have a different opinion concerning this matter. as for me, i'mvery oimpressed w/ asian beauties.

The most beautiful Koreans I've seen so far are 100% korean: Finkl, SES (korean girlbands), Lee Young Ae, Kim Hee Seon ( you know what, She's just got most votes in mostbeautifulwoman.com, ahead of kristebn kreuk, anna kornikva, N.Portman . What does it say?? a good number of people began to aPPRECIATE ASIAN BEAUTIES. and asians can be certainly considered more beautiful than hapas and whites), JUn Ji Hyun (this girl is freaking hot and she's perkycute), Chae Rim,etc...SOme korean male stars look so hot: Won Bin(you must check this guy out! He's really really hot), Ryu WOn, jang dong gun,etc...

chinese stars are the bestlooking of chinese race: cecilia cheung, faye wong, zhao wei,etc...
KHS Sunday, May 12, 2002 at 21:31:19 (PDT)

trend can change. just like how in the past black were seen as ugly. now we see things differently.

i always think hapas look better than full asians until i saw Song Hye Gyo, Hyori Lee, Sung Yuri, Kwan Boa. Most of the girls i've dated so far are white or hapas. But now i really am attracted to asians.They have something that eurasiand don't have. thhe angelic look, intriguing eyes,...it's so aPPEALING. Check out thos site!. as for hapas, the ones i like are those who have dominant asian features (Jaymee Ong, Kelly Hu).
Korean guy http://www.bjunkyard.com/page_korean/index.shtml Sunday, May 12, 2002 at 21:16:12 (PDT)

asian beauty is truly appealing to me. when you look at an eurasian or white guy, they come off as striking. thaT'S ALL YOU SEE. the next time you see her she just appears the same. with an asian woman, it seems everytime i see her she becomes more beautiful than the last time. asian women are the most beautiful women in the world!
from a WM's point of view. Sunday, May 12, 2002 at 21:09:12 (PDT)

To eurasians:

Not that i have full of pride.The most attractive koreans are full koreans. man just look at song hye kyo, kim Hee Sun, Lee Hyolee, Sung Yuri, Shin EUn Ha, Lee Young Ae... and you know what i mean. the more an asian beauty has caucasian triats, the less beautiful she becomes. Her features become tougher. an asian face has more smoothness which makes asian women so feminine and charismatic. that's why i like asian beauty so much...tasian women exude charisma and mystery...
korean guy Sunday, May 12, 2002 at 21:05:46 (PDT)

i agree with malaysian-eurasian gal 18 personality is still the most important thing. but, i still love beautiful babes.
hakka guy Sunday, May 12, 2002 at 15:22:17 (PDT)

I don't have rich parents unlike many of my male Asian friends. My car isn't as flashy, most of them do better in school than me (esp. the FOBs), and I don't kiss Asian girl's a**es nearly as much as they do. Yet more Asian, Hispanic, and White girls are interested in me than any of them.
