Article: Lee Guk Joo "Having a beautiful body doesn't guarantee happiness" (Love Challenge)
Source: Newsen via Nate
A female concert goer of MBC's 'Love Challenge' concert asked what they thought made up a beautiful woman and Lee Guk Joo said, "A woman with a beautiful heart. Just because Honey Lee-ssi is this thin and pretty doesn't mean she's always happy. I'm currently happy. Do you see the weight on me? This is happiness."

1. [+1,418, -152] But I'm sure those with prettier bodies are happier than those with not-so-pretty bodies..
- I honestly feel bad for Lee Guk Joo. Imagine how hurt she gets comparing her body to Honey Lee's. Just let her think she won mentally like this...
- It's because the standards of happiness with Koreans is messed up. You can only be happy if you have a pretty body, if you went to a good college, if you have a good job, if you have lots of money. Happiness comes from the heart, not your conditions or environment.
- True
- Well obesity contributes to all sorts of physical illnesses and an early death. You may be happy now but you should get tested by a doctor and be told to lose weight. How can you be happy if you're diseased and sick?
- Obese -> early illnesses -> sick but still happy?
2. [+1,220, -161] Shouldn't she be saying these things after having achieved a pretty body at least once and then comparing what it's like between the two;;;
3. [+989, -232] Well I'm sure anyone with a pretty body is way happier just based on how differently people treat them.. I hate that she's always trying to justify her weight.
4. [+83, -9] Nope, having a pretty body is happiness... looks are a form of talent and skill in itself.
5. [+81, -3] The reason I don't agree with her is that... Lee Guk Joo is a celebrity who is doing well for herself career-wise so she gets treated differently. A normal non-celebrity woman who is fat could never be able to say that she's happy when she suffers harassment and is always put down by others for it.
6. [+73, -5] That's such a lazy statement. Stop justifying your obesity.
7. [+66, -1] It's not like the overly obese are happy either
8. [+42, -1] No, I think I'd be unhappy in that body
9. [+32, -3] Being able to wear pretty things is happiness
10. [+31, -4] I have a hard time agreeing with Lee Guk Joo, not even 1%. I'd understand if someone more known for strict personal management and living under a constant diet like Han Go Eun said that after suddenly gaining weight and being fat, then people would try to get rid of their 'looks focused' bias but someone like Lee Guk Joo saying it just makes it seem like she's trying to justify herself being overweight. It just sounds like excuses.
