Which Celebrities Would You Like To Date Or Kiss?

If you have seen a few kdramas, you are familiar with the concept of blind dates. Korean blind dates are dates that come with references. The date can be set up by friends and be fairly casual or arranged by parents with an eye toward marriage. Those who show up on blind dates, rarely find their prospective partner is a celebrity.

But if you could have a blind date with a celebrity, who would it be? Last year the most desirable blind date was Lee Min Ho. This year he is not even in the running.

A recent survey by the marriage consulting company Duo asked participants, ages 20 to 39, if they could choose which celebrity to have a blind date with, who would that person be.

The men who responded to the survey chose actress Son Ye Jin with 33 percent of the votes over Han Hyo Joo at 24 percent and Han Hye Jin at 11 percent. The actress was chosen for her feminine qualities.

The top choice for women was Lee Seung Gi, who rated 46 percent of the votes for his perceived kind nature. He beat out Jo In Sung who scored 16 percent and Song Joong Ki at 12 percent.

Yet in another survey, when voters were asked to choose which celebrity they would like to kiss, Lee Seung Gi only got four percent of the vote. So, women would go on a blind date with Lee Seung Gi but maybe not want to kiss him? Someone should warn him. Scoring at the top of that kiss list was Song Joong Ki, who rated 30 percent, followed by Kim Soo Hyun at 24 percent.

When participants were asked which woman celebrity they most wanted to kiss, Suzy scored 42 percent. Son Ye Jin scored 17 percent, just passing Lee Min Jung at 16 percent, but poor Song Hye Kyo only got one percent. Tell that to Jo In Sung's character in "That Winter, The Wind Blows."

Other celebrities scoring well on the kiss-meter included Kim Nam Gil at 13 percent and Yoona at 10 percent.

The latter survey was taken to honor Kiss Day, June 14, which is a romantic holiday in Korea. Korean couples are usually shy about displays of public affection but on Kiss Day, they can feel more comfortable about smooching outdoors. Someone should warn the winners of the celebrity kiss contest to stay inside unless they want to be kissed.
