Sometimes I feel about a 100 years old

dangermousiePeople on soompi are complaining that they cannot buy the romance of Oh My Lady because Chae Rim looks like a 'really old woman who sells things at a market,' 'in her 40s at least.' (So, presumably, how could the hero want her).
Leaving aside the whole issue of 40s as clearly being so decrepit as to be fit for a nursing home (seriously, the posters have GOT to be in their early teens), are they telling me this is what a 40-something looks like?
Chae Rim is barely 30 and even with the hair from hell they gave her to 'age' her up to 35, she does not look much older than someone in her early 30s. A very very pretty someone in her early 30s.
To claim this is what a 'very old' 40-something looks like who is so hideous that no attractive man would ever look at her?
Ooooo-kay.
That's kinda insane.
