I’m hoping for a potential new site, which will be an ongoing scavenger hunt with lots of photos. I’m still working on it though…

@BigT42 – playful scolding is a good alternate explanation She is a bit angry in that photo
@bobbydee – alright, I think victory is the most popular explanation at this point
@Mattias – voting will happen eventually, just wait a bit

Damn, couldnt believe there are SO many poses that these korean cuties can come up with… Question: Who do you think is the “BEST” or most creative with thoses poses? New poll Steve?

hrm… V sign.. in asia I thought it was for Victory!

I’m thinking it was that way in America until the hippies stole the sign >_<

#6 looks to me like playful scolding. Something like “I’m going to get you!” or “You’re in big trouble, mister!”

@Aadx – she’s doing a very cute STFU
@affi – my bad, I lost the index finger in that perspective. Thanks for the correction!
@SomeDude, SlickDog – nyan nyan is much better
@Matt – a lot of models have that same hand gesture while smiling, is there something to describe that hand motion? (it’s sort of resting face on hands)
@Locutis – thanks for the confirmations and photos
@NovemberRain – perfect illustration for #7! Thanks! #15 does look like a thinking pose
@jay – Ah, so it’s different for Koreans? I guess it’ll have to be victory then. I’ll merge salute and look ahead.

Thanks for everyone’s feedback! If I could find a nice facepalm photo, that would describe what I’m feeling right now XD

Pose #7 – puppy eyes

Pose #15 – the ‘hmm’ (+ the pout) pose (thinking pose)
or at least that’s what I think it is
xD

I have to agree with SOmeDude and SlickDog that #4 is a Nyan~ or Meow~, if you want to keep things in english, pose (I would call something crying if the models face was a bit scrunched up and her hands were up by her eyes). #20 is pouting (like matt said) and #24 is a “bang” pose (like affi) said.

A better illustration of thumbs up would be http://reallycuteasians.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/seo-you-jin-sms-09-cat-01.jpg

#20 Sad seems more like she’s pouting.

@SomeDude: Yes, #4 is the classic neko pose. I suppose if she had a sad face it would be “crying,” or a sad cat.

“Pose #4: Crying – two closed fists near the eyes is usually the crying motion isn’t it?”

Isnt that more like a “nyan nyan” pose, like a kitty pose?

affi — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 22:31:09 +0000

the last picture (#24) doesn’t seem to be a thumbs up, since her index finger is extended. seems more like a “bang” pose to me~

V SIGN!!

Steve — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 20:24:46 +0000

I always thought it was the peace sign, but Wiki says v sign http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_gestures#V_sign

But the Vince sign? Hmmm XD

For the V Sign, I thought it was Vince
