The list of the world’s 100 most beautiful faces in 2022, announced by TC Candler, did not have many surprises, especially in the top 10. Nana, a former member of the girl group After School, secured the 9th position this year. The beauty has consistently appeared in the rankings for two consecutive years, 2014 and 2015, often being recognized in various beauty rankings.
Many fans believe that Nana is not as well-known compared to other names in the top 10. However, her stunning beauty is undeniable. Nana expressed pride in receiving the title of “Most Beautiful Face in the World,” and she even printed standees featuring her image while participating in television game shows.
Standing at 1.71 meters tall, she has been praised for her beauty, often compared to a Barbie doll. South Korean media describes Nana as having striking beauty, captivating eyes, and a height that meets international standards.
Before entering the entertainment industry, she won 4th place in the Asia Pacific Super Model Contest. After that, Nana became a member of the girl group After School. She is also known for her participation in the sub-unit Orange Caramel, with popular songs like Aing, Bangkok City, and Catallena.
Transitioning from her successful career as a singer to an acting career, Nana has showcased her talent in several works such as The Good Wife (2016), Justice, Vòng xoáy lừa đảo, Kill it, and Into the Ring. Although her performances are not overly prominent, they have been recognized for their effort and adaptability.
Not only successful in her acting career, but Nana is also a highly sought-after model for well-known brands. Nevertheless, the name of this beauty born in 1991 remains quite popular.
The title of “Most Beautiful Face in the World” has brought Nana significant attention, both positive and negative. Many opinions suggest that her beauty is not inferior to that of other renowned South Korean actresses like Kim Tae Hee, Son Ye Jin, or Song Hye Kyo. Recently, Nana underwent surgery for her nose. Many images of her before the surgery have left fans surprised due to her transformation.
Nana shared in an interview with Newsen that she often cried when discussing negative comments on social media. The actress insists she did not seek out the title, but it came naturally to her, and she does not understand why she became the target of scrutiny.
In 2022, Nana made a significant change to her appearance by revealing a tattoo on her body. At the press conference for the film Confession, she displayed a long tattoo that extends from her arm down to her ankle. The tattoo features intricate designs, flowers, and leaves.
This action has caused Nana to face criticism once again. Some fans believe that Nana’s tattooed body image does not comply with the broadcasting standards in South Korea, which may limit her future roles.
Despite the controversies, Nana has confirmed that the tattoos on her body are real. She has shared that she has carefully considered the designs and chose the tattoos herself. “These are the tattoos I have wanted for a long time. In the future, if I have the opportunity, I want to share why I chose them with those who are interested. But I’m not sure if there will be a chance,” Nana expressed.
