This is literally colorism

How tho? doesn't seem to be like it

Because of the manwha's beauty standards, being tan and having freckles are considered ugly

The freckles isn't really racist people only judged their freckles because it seems ugly for them just like before they only want fair skin and beautiful faces

Ah yes I agree, I wish that they could've think of another thing rather than tan being considered as ugly

well it's the only way ig cuz no mater how much freckles or how many things you put in the face just to alter her appearance it can still be covered by makeup and her body will still be pretty plus I bet some guys there only cares about the body I mean who knows

so yeah maybe tanning is the only solution

I have no clue why it's a thing but if the comic is Korean perhaps they're following the beauty standards that exist there to define who's beautiful or not? As far as I remember the whiter and paler someone is, the better they fit the standard as pale skin is preferable there. Probably the same reason I saw so many Chinese make-up tutorials with girls using some cream to make their skin A LOT LOT LOT paler.

not just because of the Korea's beauty standards and since it's an historical manhwa ofc it's like from the old days in France or British idk where there are royals , monarchies and nobles. Racism is common in that kind of time

It's now only been accepted that freckles and tans skin are consider beautiful.. It's the idea of not have a flawless skin.. It my be in fantasy but the era inspiration kinda match

Ngl I just thought that the reason she was considered ugly was because she chose a foundation different from the rest of her skin so the two toned didn’t match lol

You’re right and you should say it. Everyone else is just dancing around the point.

Now that I think about it your right, I don't know why I had to explain sht when it's literally shown there and thank you for pointing that out ATLEAST some people will know that I'm not really talking bad about the manwha but I'm just stating the fact that it's kinda racist cause they could've portrayed the ugly in some other way like a scar or something and idgaf about the the past that it's "normal" to be racist like it's 2023 the author is in the future, they know what they we're doing since it's their story but at the same time we don't really support them cause it's not like this website is illegal lol and that's all I wanted to say all of you that wanna disagree just keep it to your self it's annoying to see "your topic updated" like I thought that was a new chapters like idc if you dislike my comment or anything

Yeah~ They were gaslighting you. In some manhwa the racism is less obvious, like playing stereotypes, but this one was pretty obvious. While the comment section was down I got my comic information from social media and the difference of what’s acceptable is stark. There’s an extra layer of anonymity here.

It definitely is not kinda.

LMFAOO your right about that

Colorism might be a better term

Sorry meant to dislike
