Volume is More Important Than Cup Size

You’ve got to love those crazy Asians. Of course, to be fair, when they look at American culture, it’s quite likely they think we’re just as crazy. But in how many countries is it OK to hold a contest to determine which girl is the best “bagel face?”

In Korea, a girl who is a bagel face is described as having the best combination of baby face and hot body. And actress Shin Se Kyung, with her “innocent” yet “curvy in all the right places” figure has scored the top spot.

Currently, Shin Se Kyung can be seen in a series of commercials and print ads for lingerie brand Vivien. And the commercials, which broke February 21, are just as crazy as the whole bagel face thing.

In the ads, we see models representing cup sized from A to D; each one bigger than the one before. And then we see Kyung holding a glass. A voiceover intones, “the more important thing than the cup is volume” as the glass breaks. We are then, of course, treated to Kyng’s voluminous cleavage, courtesy of Vivien’s uplifting qualities.

But Shin Se Kyung’s “voluminous cleavage” can’t hold a candle to Asia’s cleavage queen, Hitomi Tanaka. Go ahead. Look her up. But be forewarned. You’ll likely find a lot of nudity. And cleavage. Lots and lots of cleavage.
