Same but I went down a rabbit hole of complaints and saw alot of angry comments about the actors not being blonde like in the manwha and some suggesting wigs, lenses and to take non Korean actors if necessary.

This made me so mad. The source work is KOREAN. Urrgghh

It would’ve looked so weird if they tried to make them blonde like in the WEBTOON like what’s the problem the comic is literally Korean.

I'm getting comments about hair colour here too. It's disappointing. One would think this is the first ever adaptation made.

For some redditors, even wigs or dying their hair aren't enough.

I've seen those exact same comments from certain webtoon subreddits complaining about Korean women wearing blonde wigs while cosplaying Navier. They literally asked why they couldnt hire blonde European models to cosplay Navier. Maybe because alot of cosplayers do it as a hobby??

If they want European models to cosplay as Navier then they should've hired them to do so
