People often joke that “Ha made a significant contribution to the advancement of medical technology.” Currently there are about 500 members in the association. The buttocks-shaped silicone models that nursing students use were also modeled after me.” Ha, who is 1.65 meters tall (5 feet 5 inches) and weighs 45 kilograms (99.2 pounds), has modeled many different medical simulation mannequins. The human body shown during the introduction of KBS’s health television show “Mysteries of the Human Body” (2002-) is actually me. A member of our association modeled for the human body chart of a famous local medical book. There are nude models for basically anything that requires the human body, like fashion, medicine, videos and games. Comments like ‘beautiful’ or ‘glamorous,’ and even a change in facial expression can be offensive to the models, which is why we are strict with these issues.”Ī sketch of a nude model Ha reveals in her book that there are far more nude models in society than people realize and their jobs are much more varied than just standing in front of an artist to be painted on canvas. “People tend to make imprudent choices when they see someone else’s body. One rule, when it comes to nude modeling, is that the photographers or painters are not allowed to engage in any physical contact with the model’s body. They said they received a report about a ‘suspicious group.’ We were under surveillance for three months.” Even nowadays, there are times when the members of the association become victims of sexual harassment. “About a year after I founded the association, we got a visit from the Agency for National Security Planning. She wanted to break the stereotype that a nude model “takes part in covert activities,” or that the “purpose is to seduce others.” “It wasn’t easy to break prejudices,” said Ha. Two months before establishing the association, Ha hosted a public nude life drawing performance at an art center. It’s better to be part of a team than to be alone when unfair things happen to us.” “I’ve just always wanted people to respect my job. However, it was these reactions that led Ha to establish the Korea Nude Model Association in 1996, in order to set straight some of the misconceptions related to nude modeling. It’s an amazing feeling to be able to inspire others.” People used to rip up Ha’s business cards when she gave them out, concerned about how they would be perceived by others for merely possessing one. I realized that I needed to come up with better model poses and maintain a model physique, and have confidence about my career. I started openly telling people that I was a nude model in 1995, when I decided to model full-time. “I was a normal office worker during the weekdays and a nude model on the weekends. “I started nude modeling in 1988 but I couldn’t tell my friends and family what I did for a living,” said Ha.
The restaurant, being in Jongno, central Seoul, had many photographers as customers as there are many photo galleries in the area.

One day, after finishing work, she remembered a professional photographer asking her if she had any thoughts on being a nude model. She took a part-time job at a restaurant to try and earn back the money that had been stolen. She felt helpless as she was living with her sister and her brother-in-law in a single bedroom house at the time, and she had been saving up money to move out.

Her father was patriarchal, which she says was one of the things that caused her distress throughout her childhood. My job requires me to keep my body healthy and loved.” Ha grew up in a small town as the second youngest among seven children. “It’s not about whether or not I lost weight, but if there are any new scars or scratches on my body. “I check to see how my body has changed overnight,” said Ha. She recently published her first book, “I Am A Nude Model” in June. The body in the mirror is like my closest friend it’s been with me in the same place for a very long time.” Ha Young-eun is the first Korean nude model to open up about her job and the founder of the Korea Nude Model Association. I see a body that is similar but in a way, also a little bit different from yesterday.
It’s a morning routine of mine that I’ve been doing for 30 years.
