First Model!

Aug 19, 2006 Author: FMS | Filed under: Models, Street Runway

Wednesday was one of the most interesting days I’ve ever had here so far.

I was going to lunch by myself and having a good time taking a break from work, sitting reading a book, and wasn’t even out to follow girls and snap pictures. Bank It was hot as hell – as I’m sure we all know, yet thankfully one of the last really hot days, since the heat spell seems to be officially broken as of today – and I was just wandering into the bank to get some cash and some cool air. I had the camera out and was snapping a few shots here and there, but wasn’t coming up with much. And then I saw her. She was young, had on some killer heels that accentuated her plain-but-shapely legs, and seemed to have that cute and clean-cut look that marks so many younger Korean ladies as particularly Korean. Only here can you wear 4-inch heels and a mini, yet look totally innocent in a studious-looking top and schoolbooks. I snapped away – somewhat obviously – and I had the very strong feeling she knew I was snapping her, but she didn’t say anything.

Still, I had my shots, and they were spectacular! Cute and neat feet, smooth pale skin, and a good length of leg that tapered up into a plain-but-perty package. Bank EnterShe’s not a stunner, but had a certain sexiness about her that obviously came from the fact that she had on that pair of heels. As I looked at the pics, I decided that I had to try my pitch, even expecting full well that she might yell at me or even get nasty. So there I waited, for around 10 minutes. When she came out, to my great surprise, she was quite receptive and very, very friendly. I even admitted I had taken her picture and surmised that she already knew, which she confirmed. We were talking and had already agreed to exchange numbers, but we were already vibing ok, so I suggested that we sit down and have a cup of coffee. She was eager to get to know me more, and even took it in stride me when I snapped a few pictures under the table. She said that she had never gotten a pedicure, and simply took care of herself with a pair of clippers. I thought her toes were clipped a bit short, so I’ll have her leave them alone and only have them dealt with in the pedicure place.

First Meeting

She said that she always had random guys snapping her picture on the subway, but she kind of understood why, as she always got compliments for her “cute feet” and legs. And she actually mentioned that she would be “really into” doing stuff related to feet and leg modeling. We were both in little-piggy-went-to-market heaven.

Then we decided to meet again on Thursday, get her a pedicure, and hang out. She actually ended up coming to my place that day, where we took more pictures and got to know each other. I’ll post the post-pedicure results in the next post, but each person who registers with the site gets an exclusive picture from the home shoot sent to them by email!

“She’s Got Legs…”

Aug 17, 2006 Author: FMS | Filed under: Ghetto Fab, Glamorous, Street Runway

“…and knows how to uuuuuse them!”

Dang, girl! ZZ Top was definitely on my mental playlist that day.

This set of pictures is hard to categorize, but let me tell you that it was a classic case of “Napoleonic compensation”, which you see for people showing off their best feature. I’m not blaming anyone or looking gift horses in their mouths, but I’m just saying don’t continue to feel like you’re missing out on something because we don’t have faces here. Stairs Extend Trust me. I think some of the best, most photoworthy pairs of legs and feet often don’t have much to do with the beauty of their owners, and are, much more than you’d think, standalone items.Stairs Shy More than just that, a good portion of people who put the most energy into strutting around on higher heels and with extreme hemlines seem to be compensating for something. It’s sort of like those short guys who walk around with tight shirts and tank tops – you know the type – who make an extra effort to look ripped and manly. Personally, I think the energy is better spent on being a funny guy or telling interesting stories, but some guys put that energy into having “big guns” instead of arms. Hey, thass cool, thass cool. But it’s pretty obvious.

So that’s the situation we got here. If you were to see some face shots – and I’ve shown a few shots including faces to a few people in person – they all say that the whole effect gets ruined if faces are there. Slip StandI know you all don’t believe me yet – but try to imagine from this particular set of photos what I’m trying to tell you, but can’t show you directly (but if I did, you’d nod and say, “Yeah, you’re kinda right. Seeing the face doesn’t really add to much) – but you ain’t missing anything here. I’m trying to be nice, see? To say it much simpler – the face don’t match the view from behind. The great Sir Mix-a-Lot once talked about “an LA face with an Oakland boodie.” Can I just say that we’re talking about some “Kangnam legs”, a country face, and…umm…let’s just leave boodie out of it, shall we? Slip ShowThere are certain great aspects to be found in the Korean female form, but we all know that when it comes to boodie, we’re talking gluteus minimus, right? With some exceptions. Anyway, for defenders of Korean honor-through-beauty, don’t take this too seriously. If we didn’t think Korean girls were slammin’ in some way, this website wouldn’t be here, right?

Long and Leggy!

Aug 13, 2006 Author: FMS | Filed under: Models, Site Stuff

C’mon, my people!

I’m hoping to see a community of enthusiasts and appreciators spring up around this site – I know you’re coming, so how about that feedback?

Just register yourself in the site under any name you want to start commenting. Trust me – I’ll make every effort to respond to your feedback and try to create content that you all like.

And just for your information – the model from the previous post – “Short and Sweet” – has agreed to come back for a future shoot to be decided shortly; the model from this picture below – “Long and Leggy” – is now in the hopper after having been photographed by me. I’m gonna “pop the question” about being a regular model here soon. Here’s a preview below. More after I get feedback from her.

Long Leggy

Judging from the extreme shapeliness of her entire package – you really, really can’t imagine how shapely, guys – I really hope she agrees to come on board.

Monthly Roundup

Aug 13, 2006 Author: FMS | Filed under: Site Stuff

We’ve been online for the better half of nearly a month, enough time to have built up some interesting stats. So I was playing around with the site stats report on my site when I came across the top 20 search engine terms that bring up this site:

  1. radish legs
  2. high heels
  3. lick feet man
  4. korean foot binding
  5. young ladies
  6. feetmanseoul.com
  7. gam leg bone toe popping
  8. korean calves legs
  9. seoul feet
  10. foot binding korea
  11. female foot fetish
  12. sexiest shaped male feet
  13. red mango seoul korea
  14. toe parting male feet
  15. feetmanseoul
  16. online shopping: korean hanboks
  17. female feet
  18. female cute feet
  19. http://www.feetmanseoul.com/
  20. ghetto feet

Wow – tells you what people out there are looking for. This eclectic collection of terms also tells you that this site is very young. Out of the the few thousand hits we’ve gotten so far (mostly from the two big links in from major blogs and being indexed on blog search engines), each of those search strings was responsible for only a few hits each.

But I thought you’d find them funny. I did!

What is TALENT?

"내가 연기할 수 없을 때, 난 연기를 해야 했고, 노래할 수 없을 때, 난 '익살스런 얼굴'을 노래해야 했다. 또, 난 Fred Astaire와 함께 춤을 춰야 했었는데, 그때는 춤을 출 수 있는 상황이 아니었다. 그러니까 내가 준비되지 않았을 때 난 이 모든것을 해야 했던 것이다. 그때 난 정말 미친듯이 이 난국을 타개하기 위해 노력했다."

"I was asked to act when I couldn't act. I was asked to sing 'Funny Face' when I couldn't sing, and dance with Fred Astaire when I couldn't dance - and do all kinds of things I wasn't prepared for. Then I tried like mad to cope with it.”

---Audrey Hepburn (1929-1993)
