Jang Nara’s got good genes
by javabeans
I’m not sure if this has been floating around on the web or if it’s new, but it’s the first I’m seeing of actress and singer Jang Nara displaying her marked resemblance to an old photo of her mother.
The talent doesn’t fall far from the tree, it seems. Apparently Mom, aka Lee Kyung-ok, had even passed the TBC “talent exam” in the ’70s (an early audition-like process for aspiring actors). Her father got his start as a theater actor, and her older brother was invited to try his luck as an entertainer with MBC. It’s all in the genes, I suppose?

haha well that killed two birds with one stone
first jang nara shows she didnt get plastic surgery (or if she did its really minor)
and second, her mom showed she didnt get plastic surgery (cause you can sometimes tell when your daughter looks nothing like you)
they're so pretty!i never knew jang nara's family was all into the entertainment industry

wow, interesting article. though i have to say that i think jang nara's mom is prettier. originally when i read the title, i thought it was like a younger picture of her compared to her today. obviously not. lol

Her mom looks like Winnie Cooper from The Wonder Years.
From what I've seen and remember, her dad looks like the average Korean ahjuhshi and her brother is a little cute.
Not a fan of all her work, but I love Jang Nara as a person. She's the kind of person you want to root for and can't bring yourself to say anything negative about her, even if it might be true.

Her mother is much prettier than she is. Jang Nara is quite mediocre in terms of looks.

for those that follow Jang nara it been know for a long time she looks very much like her mother when she was younger, though Nara herself has often joked she looks like her father, she seem very much daddy little girl.
I think one of the things that made Nara what she is, is clearly her family, she basically grown up to be what she is, there never been any doubt that she would take up work in the entertainment industry and unlike perhaps other entertainers there never been and resistance from her family, only support. Of course how well she done and how far she gone is from her own unique personality and talents.

wow, until I read the description, I thought it was one of those before pictures to prove that she didn't have plastic surgery.. the mom picture is prettier though. Maybe I'm just used to plastic, but Jang Nara face is slightly rounder?

her brother has the same nose and mouth as his mother and sister and there a clear resemblance when he appears with Nara together. She often promotes him and her cousin, as they all belong to the same management group. Will as it family run they only have the three on the books lol.
Nara can have a round face one day then the next she can look almost elfin, part of her charm is you never know how she going to look from one moment to the next.
