Ha Ji-won's ideal type: Physiognomist advises against authoritarian men

Actress Ha Ji-won received unexpected advice from physiognomist Park Seong-jun regarding the type of partner that suits her best. The analysis suggested that rather than someone with an authoritarian or dominant personality, a person who listens quietly and communicates effectively would be a better match. As questions regarding marriage and destiny continued, Ha expressed agreement with some of the assessments, candidly revealing her views on romance.

These details were shared in a video released on the 2nd through the web variety show '26th Class Ji-won.' The video featured the caption 'Men Park Seong-jun Prohibits,' and Park specifically explained which types of men would not be suitable for Ha.

Regarding Ha, Park stated, "She is not compatible with people who are authoritarian, macho, dominant, act out of place, overconfident, or constantly try to show themselves off." Ha agreed, saying, "They really are not a match."

When the production team asked, "Aren't all women incompatible with such men?" and "Are there people who are compatible with such individuals?", Park explained that preferred relationship styles can vary from person to person. He noted that some people might find masculine charm in an authoritarian attitude or perceive overconfidence as self-assurance.

However, he viewed such types as particularly unsuitable for Ha. Park noted that Ha has a personality that can sharply criticize a partner's authoritarian attitude or excessive self-display, advising that it would be better for her to meet someone who can calmly communicate their thoughts rather than someone who places themselves excessively in the spotlight.

In the process of judging connections, he mentioned compatibility (gunghap). Park suggested that while time is needed to confirm deep connections and exceptions exist, it is wise to judge the possibility and depth of a relationship after examining their compatibility.

Of course, physiognomy and compatibility are closer to the realm of traditional interpretation and personal belief rather than scientifically verified methods for predicting personality or relationships. Therefore, it is appropriate to view these remarks as a conversation and advice exchanged within the format of a web variety show, rather than an objective prediction of Ha's actual romantic possibilities.

Nevertheless, Ha's interest in such topics aligns with her actual image, having long portrayed intense female characters in her works. After making her debut in the 1996 KBS youth drama 'New Generation Report: Adults Don't Know,' Ha built an unrivaled filmography through works such as 'School 2,' 'Damo,' 'Something Happened in Bali,' 'Hwang Jin Yi,' 'Secret Garden,' and 'Empress Ki.'

In particular, she handled both action and emotional acting simultaneously in 'Damo,' and intensely portrayed a character torn between desire and love in 'Something Happened in Bali.' In 'Secret Garden,' she left behind a representative romantic comedy through a setting where her soul is swapped with a chaebol man, and in 'Empress Ki,' she took center stage in a major historical drama that reinterpreted a historical figure.

Her range was also wide on the big screen. She expanded her genre spectrum through the disaster film 'Haeundae' and the melodrama 'My Love by My Side,' and recently played the top star Nam-mi in the film 'Beegwang.' 'Beegwang' was released in theaters on the 2nd to meet audiences.

Ha was born in 1978 and is currently single. Having worked as a top-tier actress for a long time from her 20s to her 40s, she has portrayed a wide range of characters, from strong and independent women to those shaken by love. However, this conversation drew even more interest because she has not frequently disclosed specific details about her marriage or dating life to the public.

Ultimately, the most interesting part of this video is not 'what kind of man she should meet,' but rather showing what kind of relationship makes Ha feel comfortable. To borrow Park's expression, excessive authority and self-display are far from Ha; instead, a relationship where they respect each other's boundaries and can calmly share their stories is more suitable.

If one moves away from the perspective of merely consuming the marriage status of glamorous stars, the question of what kind of person and what kind of relationship Ha will choose after her long acting career is ultimately a matter of her personal life. The physiognomist's advice from this variety show cannot make that choice for her. However, it drew interest in that it allowed a glimpse into what kind of connection the actress, who has spent decades acting out the lives of others in front of the camera, now desires in her own life.
