Whaddayaknow Song Hye Kyo who is regarded as one of Korea”s most beautiful faces is at number 99 while After School’s Nana slipped a few spots down to number 3, after topping the list consecutively in 2014 and 2015.
There’s only a handful of Chinese actresses from Angelababy (Love O2O) to Crystal Liu (Once Upon A Time) who are close to the bottom when they are almost always unanimously praised for their looks. This is why beauty is subjective though I have to admit that they all look gorgeous anyway so who’s to argue the rankings.
Nevertheless, I’m secretly hoping that Filipina actress Liza Soberano who is number 2 for the second time in a row wins next year. Followers of Korean and Chinese entertainment wouldn’t be familiar with her but she is a very popular actress in the Philippines and if the list is based on aesthetics alone, this 18-year-old has definitely got the looks and a lovely personality to boot. Here’s a look at some East Asian stars on the list though we included a few from the Philippines, which is in Southeast Asia.
