1. [+7,180, -584] Does every artist need permission from a critic just to be able to create art? Please don't pay them any mind and just make what you want...
2. [+3,189, -155] There's no rule saying you have to be an art high school or art college graduate to be able to create art
3. [+1,928, -81] I much respect artists like Goo Hye Sun more than people who use ghost artists or ghost writers
4. [+1,503, -78] She's right. Art is about what you feel. Just see it for what it is. Who do critics think they are to be putting her down like this?
5. [+626, -109] I think the criticism about celebrity art work is moreso about them using their celebrity status to charge exorbitant prices for their work, which makes actual artists feel scammed. Sure, none of this would be a problem of celebrities were just creating art as a hobby, but money is at the core of the issue. Is their art work really worth tens of thousands on its own, without their celebrity status? Even critics are saying that these works are not up to par, and that it's obvious these celebrities are just in it for the money. Art? Don't make me laugh.
6. [+536, -111] The problem is that these celebrities are acting like artists not based on their skills but on their celebrity fame
7. [+266, -19] Being recognized by a critic isn't the only thing that makes you an artist. Just ignore them and do what you want to do. I think this is the realest thing Goo Hye Sun has ever said.
8. [+237, -8] Goo Hye Sun herself said that she doesn't do art to have her talents recognized by others. It's purely for self satisfaction. If you don't like that, keep it moving.
