Do my eyebrows move too much when I talk? Dealing with the 'Western Face' feedback.
I did a mock zoom interview with a Korean trainer last week, and the biggest note I got was about my speaking habits.
She told me that when I speak English or try to express passion, my eyebrows jump up and down, and my hand gestures are way too big—like a Disney channel actor or a TikTok influencer. 🎭 Instruction in Korea values "Controlled Grace." They want to see your eyes and facial expressions, but if your whole face is moving constantly, it looks messy on a fixed camera lens. 📉 How do you guys practice calming your face down while still looking bright and charismatic? I feel like a statue trying not to move!
Film your face while talking about your day, then rewatch it on mute. You’ll notice your habits instantly.
