Much different from the Russian teenage girls we’ve seen yesterday in Olya Ivanova’s series Weirdo are the Korean girls in these outstanding portraits by photographer Hein-Kuhn Oh from the series Cosmetic Girls.
With tidier haircuts, more understated but no less heavy make-up and no tattoos, these girls seem to strive to look older than they actually are; but what strikes the most are their stiff poses and near lifelessness. More than adolescents, these teenage girls look like dolls, or even worse, robots.
Keep looking...
