I don't think we have any young could be korean guys in the game huh...
I mean theres dennis but he is bit old to dress up like school boy maybe :sweat_smile:
I feel like they should have perhaps went with more standard hanbok for guys but it is what it is

I do feel like these were maybe more with romantic historical dramas in mind than wedding wear though
maybe the female attire goes for guests to weddings though hmm

Looks great, yeah I often feel that the outfits in the game are often not very "standard" they often feel very over the top.

I'm not sure what pre-made sims we have that are korean, there is Vanessa Yong I suppose, and I never made the connection that Liberty Lee might be korean. But I guess it's up to the player to decide as well.

Well Lee is common surname in korea so I sort of figured that she could be mixed or have korean heritage but born in ''willow creek''
there isn't really any info on her parents or anything either so I just ran with it :lol:

That's good, personally, I think that's how one should play the sims. It's tricky though when Maxis are focusing on representation I feel that I need to use some clothes right, I wonder how people might feel if I'm posting a picture of a sim wearing this outfit who is much more likely to be japanese (like Miko Ojo for example). Korea and Japan have a complicated history.

This is exactly why I prefer not to have real-world cultural items, people, or places in the game. All of my sims have their own "pretend" cultures, which follow whatever looks and customs I tell them to do. I think the game does try to stylize real-world inspirations somewhat, but I think many players take them too literally. And that's why it doesn't matter what we do; someone somewhere is going to be offended by it. So I just play my own way with no intent to step on any toes. But if people do have a problem with that, well it's... their problem with that.

I don't mind real-world cultural items, as long as I know what culture that they are from... I was considering giving Miko Ojo this outfit but reading this thread I feel that it's not appropriate. And I had to go to the forums to find that out.

Anyway, I think you are right, somewhere, someone is going to feel offended and there is not much we can do about it.
