[+1,193, -13] Can we just get rid of profile pictures in job applications? These pictures are all filtered to fraud levels anyway, no? Just wait until the interview to see what someone looks like?

[+559, -15] I think what's sadder is that some people really think that this is what they look like. We're going to see more people preferring to live life through the camera lens instead of their mirror.

[+152, -6] Some of the pictures do look similar but there's always something off about them!!

[+113, -10] Most of these filters end up looking like a completely different person with maybe 0.00002% of the essence of the original person... ㅎㅎ but it is fun to try~

[+38, -0] I'm an ajumma in my forties. I paid 6,600 won out of curiosity and ended up not being able to use any of them because they came out so weird ㅋㅋ it made me look like I was in my early twenties;;

[+24, -2] What's funny is that everyone I know has this as their new profile picture but they all look completely different from the filter ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 

[+23, -1] I see so many women using this filter as their profile right now and it's actually scary because they all look alike;;

[+19, -0] You're better off just going to a photo studio and letting them photoshop you. This filter turns you into a complete stranger.

[+8, -1] I saw my friend use it and the end results... don't have her face at all. Even my friend admitted it looked like way too much photoshop... I don't think anyone would recognize you if you actually used this in your applications...
