Yet, she looks completely different on her YouTube show 차린건 쥐뿔도 없지만 (No Prepare). Although she interviews the hottest Korean celebrities each episode, as the title suggests, she is “unprepared.”

So, Lee Young Ji appears bare-faced and in stay-at-home clothes in her apartment or at an outdoor “home.”

And even in public interviews, such as for BuzzFeed in the U.S., she has appeared with little to no makeup.

So, fans have been curious about her choice to go sans makeup on broadcasts considering it’s something celebrities rarely do. Lee Young Ji had a Q&A via Instagram Stories, and a fan asked her, “I’m curious about why you don’t wear makeup on broadcasts!!”

In typical Lee Young Ji fashion, she responded with a joke before giving her serious answer. She teased, “So you guys can rage about it ㅎㅎ I’m joking.”

Lee Young Ji revealed shockingly that she does not consider there to be an actual reason. Initially, she just did it for convenience because she would sweat while living in Thailand.

Honestly, I don’t really have a reason. I don’t really pay attention to it. I had to run around Thailand, being sweaty, so I did it for my convenience.

Yet, when it comes to the choice to go without makeup, even on broadcasts, there are actually a couple of reasons. She believes that it helps to make her guests more comfortable.

I didn’t [wear makeup] before because I wanted to create a comfortable and composed atmosphere for the guests on [my YouTube Channel].

Now, she also feels like putting on makeup is a chore. And at this point, she is more recognized as bare-faced.

[Putting on makeup] is honestly a hassle too. People don’t recognize this clown if I walk around with makeup on.

We love that she is comfortable just being herself, and confidence is what makes someone most attractive! Especially considering how the idol industry pressures one to appear unattainably perfect all the time, we love that Lee Young Ji is breaking the norm.
