    I fell down the Kurhn rabbit hole around fifteen years ago and fell in love with them and I'm not even a fashion doll collector. The quality is amazing. The Night Angel and Moon Goddess are still on display with my dinosaurs and Living Dead dolls.

    What you said is most definitely not racist. It is common especially in Korea for people to lighten their skin because there's a belief that it's more attractive. Btw these dolls are so omg adorable!! Love love LOVE~!!

    I've always wanted a Kurhn, one of the traditionally dressed ones, but opted for J-dolls instead because they were similar priced at the time. I really like the picnic set. There was doll line called Smartgurlz from a few years ago that looked like Kurhn but more westernized, like they had a black doll, a doll with freckles, etc.

    • @guro-byte
      @guro-byte Рік тому +1

      I know I'm late but the Smartgurlz dolls were just kurhn dolls! The back of their heads and bodies have the kurhn copyright info on it. I'm guessing they either got the kurhn brand to make dolls for them or they bootlegged the dolls since their main focus was on teaching coding via the electric siggy/Segway thry came with.
      Either way it was awesome to be able to get kurhn in some different skin tones! I managed to get one in a lovely tan :)

    I love the Kurhn dolls. I had only one before Kewpie's blog made me extra interested.
    My favourite is the "Kurhn Style" doll. She has pretty brown shoes, exchangable hands, flat feet, a stand and nice clothes. My second favourite is the one that you got, with the sun dress and all.

    It'so sad that these cute dolls aren't available internationally, such as other doll brands with lower quality nowadays (hasbro or barbie dolls, for example...)😪
    They would have had soo much popularity towards us, both children and collectors, that they could have been a fierce competitor with Barbie, Disney store and Omgs

  • @LitBaebe
    @LitBaebe 3 роки тому +15

    In many Asian cultures, paleness is compared to beauty and wealth; those people would work outside in the farm would get tanned and get dark and it lets them know that they are in the working class/poor family. The wealthy don't have to work outside, so they stay indoors and stay pale as they can. It's sad that in southeast Asia, they still push this light skin as beautiful in their cultural norm, causing these young women to buy these toxic whitening creams and their ingredients are often not regulated and the government doesn't really care. You are not being racist saying that in the video, you're just stating facts observed from many impossible beauty standards in Asian countries.

    I had one of these years and years ago - found her cheap at a doll fair and was attracted to the lovely face, but she was on a different body which didn't have that posability. Might try her again on that great body, as she really is so very pretty...and presumably she'd be quite cheap...so it's a quick fix of dolly crack!

    If anyone wants to know, if you compare these dolls and Pedigree (Marx) Sindy dolls then you understand why Sindy was more popular (when she was produced) in Asia than Barbie. No shade on Barbie by the way, Pedigree Sindy during the 1970s and 1980s was preferred as she looked more like what they like than Barbie did.

    Yay love that you are reviewing them, K Rin is how I say it, as for the beauty of pale skin that is true that lighter skin is something of a desirable trait in Asia mainly just to say that you don't work much outside and that you are well to do if you have pale skin. It is the same idea of light vs dark skin

    It looks like the same packaging for the fashion Minnie dolls, I could be wrong. I like these, probably won't buy them. But, these are good for Asian collectors or even Asian kids who want a doll that looks like them. Clawdeena9 mentioned as a kid there weren't many Asian dolls out there.

    When I first saw Kurhn on Ebay, I saw her under the name Sonya, so I thought that was her name. I couldn't find a comment about it, sorry if I missed it :(. I love her face and I recently just got one off a Ebay. I often worry about saying "racist" things. You did not. Colorism is prevalent in Asian countries and comes from history.

  • @vaughn_erich
    @vaughn_erich 3 роки тому +2

    I've definitely heard of pale skin traditionally being thought of as "ideal" in Asian countries like South Korea, Japan, and China. I heard it became ingrained in societies due to a history of poor rural laborers working in the sun vs. wealthy people who could stay inside.
    I guess the same was true of white people at a certain point in time. Then it reversed with tanning beds and all that...now I'm not sure if most white people really care either way. Perhaps some people are more aware/concerned about sun damage, but I could also envision the crunchy hipster crowd enjoying an outdoorsy tan.

    I am really glad to see those dolls on you chanel. They are one of biggest doll brands in China. The name is read ke'er in pinyin, you are studying Chinese now, I hope you can try to read it yourself. They are awesome. I suggest you also check out Lelia and Night Lolita. Lelia is more play line, Barbie like, Night Lolita has 60 cm with ball joints all over their body, wigs, eyes that can be changed, like the super expensive bjds, female and male dolls, 30 cm child like completely ball jointed dolls and 30 cm Barbie like, very well articulated and extremely well posable dolls. Night Lolita also has this amazing TV series promoting the dolls. It is like a fairytale, fairies, magic, human children, adventures it is amazing...8 seasons, I think. I will try to search for a link and post it with a different comment later. I don't know if it is translated somewhere, but even if only in Chinese, it can help you study Chinese😉 My favourite character is the Water prince, he is so blue and cute😁 I am sorry for being so talkative, it is just I have been following your chanel for years and I have been living in China for years and I feel like two worlds that seemed so separated are finally getting together now☺️ I love Chinese dolls, the only thing that kind of bothers me about them is the ghostly paleness and the lack of any other skin tone... But, it is a cultural difference.
