Do (south) Koreans like or Dislike Freckles?

Question

Obviously I have freckles, I have blonde/red hair and blue/green eyes. I'm going to Korea soon and I would like to know the beauty standards.

You're not Korean so you won't be judged on exactly the same beauty standard. If you're considered pretty in the country you're from most likely you'll be considered pretty by Koreans as well. If freckles are your biggest concern/insecurity then you have nothing to worry about. There are plenty of Korean men out there who will be attracted to you. I'm half Korean and many Koreans think I'm beautiful but I don't have clear milky white skin. You don't have to have white skin, super skinny body, big eyes, to be considered attractive by Koreans...I wish people would stop saying stuff like that because usually they're some misinformed kpop obsessed person that never even been to Korea.

I have red hair and freckles and went to a korean going away party for my friend and I and one other girl was not korean. They all gathered around me guessing my heritage and guys kept hitting on me and my boyfriend had to keep intervening.  The freckles might not be as popular since they usually try to avoid that but the rest yes! They also went crazy over my boyfriend who is half Chinese. lol Here my boyfriend is probably average looking but my friend pointed out who they think the hottest korean is and then people kept saying my boyfriend looked like that and they said he was super hot. So here he and I are average there apparently we're super hot. Have fun! ;D

I know lots of Asian people (I'm Californian) and they tend to marvel at white people, especially with different hair and eye colors. I'm blond with hazelish eyes and freckles. My first roommate in college was Asian and we spent like an hour trying to guess what ethnicity the other one was. We both lost because we're both mixed.

At any rate, you will be a spectacle. You're pretty so you'll probably get a lot of positive attention.

And North Koreans aren't allowed to like anything, so the south in parenthesis was slightly unnecessary. :P

You are going to be a novelty in Korea. You obviously aren't going to fit the "normal" standard of beauty there, and there will be plenty of guys who won't be attracted to you because you are so different, but a sizable minority of guys are going to be blown away and super-attracted to you because you ARE so different than all the other girls there.

Koreans really like people who have clear white skin, are tall, and have bright colored hair (many Koreans like to dye their hair bright brunette, blond, red, etc.). Asians believe that Westerners are the preetiest people. They won't find you ugly! They'll think you look interesting (not in a bad way of course!) and I'll bet they'll love your eyes and hair. How do I know this? I live there.
