Inappropriately Dressed Actors Spark Fierce Backlash Online
Recently, an online community post went viral as K-Netizens discussed the limit for actors on wearing school uniforms.
한드들아 제발
인간적으로 교복 입혀보고 아니다 싶으면 아역쓰자고
배우한테도 시청자들한테도 못할짓임 ㄹㅇ— 밤새 (@gcda_v) August 20, 2025
Korean dramas, if you style an actor in a school uniform and it doesn’t look right, use child actors. This is cruel for both the actor and the viewers…
They continued to post examples of actors that seemed too old to be wearing school uniforms.

It looks like the homeroom teacher wore a school uniform to work LOL.
나는 진짜 한드에서 이렇게 뻔뻔하게 30대 배우들이 교복입고 기세로 밀어붙이는게 너무웃김 pic.twitter.com/q1eTryJpG9

I find it so hilarious to see actors in their 30s wearing uniforms so confidently.
Korean netizens agreed that no matter how young they look, they would still stick out among the other younger actors.
- “Even though I think Jung Hae In looks young for his age, he looks different when he’s next to real students. Just use child actors, please.”
- “Looking young is just looking young. Stop putting school uniforms on adult actors!”
- “No matter how young they look, they look different around real students.”
- “No one can beat Juwon because he filmed with real young kids.”
- “No one can beat Cha Tae Hyun…”
- “Is this April Fool’s?”
- “Use CG and make them look young then…”
What are your thoughts on this?
