"I like my face" is such a great sentence to hear someone say... Why do we live in a society in which you are told to "walk with confidence" but god forbid you ever show any kind of satisfaction with the way you look, unless you want to be considered 'vain' or 'shallow'. Its important to teach young girls and boys and anyone between that its good and healthy to love your body, and it is okay to talk about it.

I don't think plastic surgery is wrong but what I do find wrong is that they are getting plastic surgery to look like someone else. You should do something for you and only you not to be or try to look like someone else. I think they go overboard with this stuff. What I also don't like is the people who rudely and severely judge these people and say " You should love what God gave you" but would probably call them ugly on the other hand. But to each their own, I can't sit here and judge them for what they do to THEIR OWN FACE, its their own face.

To hear the mother talk like that about her child... i think that's the biggest indicator of how important looks are and how big surgery is. If even a mother can advocate that for her child and focus so much on looks then it's obviously deeply ingrained in the culture. a mother is supposed to think her child is beautiful no matter what... and should also support personal growth and stress the importance of that over looks...

I wasn't being racist, I was so young I didn't even associate it with a certain race, I just remember seeing the pictures of Asian women and thought their eyes were really pretty.

I don't know when this trend started happening in Korea but the young people over there really need to wake up and totally change the way they think over there. I lived there for almost 5 years and just recently came back home to the US. Korea is without a doubt the most superficial society in the world. It's all about image, how you look, what you wear, etc. It's truly sad and pretty disgusting in all honesty. Young people, especially girls really need to wake up but I don't see that happening any time soon. Their whole mindset there is pretty sick but it's the norm sadly. All the girls look the same cause they all copy each other and follow what's "popular". Now you have this disturbing doll look trend that looks absolutely terrible but to them being a pale skinned anorexic looking stick with huge alien eyes looks good. Again, the society over there really has some major issues and it seems to be getting worse. I myself am a Korean-American and it's just sad to see how young people are over there and I thought young people in the US were bad lol.

tbh, i don't think there's anything wrong with plastic surgery, it's people's ideology that's fucked up. it's completely absurd how the media talks about how important it is to love oneself and the need to be confident with your complex, but then turns around and shows you what is expected of women. like how the fuck is a woman supposed to feel comfortable in her own skin if she is constantly being told that she isn't good enough? like a woman who likes her arse and chest and meaty thighs is gonna get a complex if the people around her keeps giving her grief about not looking like frigging miranda kerr. so i say if plastic surgery makes you feel better about yourself, then get it done. but don't do it because everyone around you is doing it and you feel the "need" to change yourself. a few certain someones in my life won't stop giving me shit about my wide-ish nose and slightly crooked teeth. do i get a little self-conscious about it? hell yes. but i am my own person and ain't no flat chested bug-eyed bitch gonna change nothing about that. so i guess what i'm trying to say is that you should get to know yourself a little bit better before you make any decisions. unlike a piercing or a tattoo or a hair style, this is not something that you can back away from. be wise about your choices so you don't regret it later on in life.

Kyou_ssi Michael Jackson's own plastic surgeon has admitted MJ NEVER had Vitiligo..and it's an insult to people who REALLY have that disease to say MJ had it. MJ himself told close friends and family that he was going to lighten his skin after he discovered it is perfectly natural for Asians & Indians to do it..and he wanted the same effects. Cher was a witness to this and told Larry King this publicly in an interview after his death. Furthermore..if you want proof MJ didn't have Vitiligo..take a look at videos of LaToya back when she believed MJ was a pedophile and was molesting children and did public interviews about this. She was EXACTLY as white as MJ was..yet..they both started out the same skin color. She went to the same plastic surgeon as MJ did..hence the reason they had identical noses and looked like twins..and hence the reason her skin was just as bleached as his was. LT stopped bleaching and is now naturally darker..but when they asked her back then if she too had Vitiligo like her brother since she was now as white as he was and they both started out the same skin color..she laughed and said "No..I don't need to pretend to have a disease in order to explain my beauty treatments." And just recently Quincy Jones publicly admitted MJ told him he didn't have Vitiligo..but knew the black community would attack him if he admitted he just wanted to be lighter for aesthetics. Keep in mind I don't see anything wrong with lightening the skin..just as there is nothing wrong with Caucasians getting a tan. My Japanese and Indian (India) friends all use lightening creams as it is culturally acceptable there to lighten for beauty. It is just sad MJ had to lie about it in order not to be made fun of. Of course..the ultimate proof was all the bottles of prescription strength Hydroquinone found in his home after he died and posted on the internet by the police since they were public record due to being used in his court case against his doctor.

They're beautiful because of surgery - to many Western eyes because they fit our beauty standards (even if it's in the "exotic beauty" category). They aren't all born fitting into our standards. Asians first of all don't all look like Koreans, and there is no race - Asian or others - in which all its people are born conforming to any particular idea of beauty. The problem is you get mixed populations (and therefore people) where the predominate one considers the other(s) ugly because it's different. And the minority is shamed, and instead of growing up believing they are differently beautiful, believe they are ugly. So they get surgery to conform to the majority's beauty ideal, and the surgical precision renders them "perfect." Now all of the sudden, the majority - who were "naturally pretty" but not without normal so-called flaws - are competing with that, being beaten in their own competition by those who no longer bear flaws. So they up their game, too. You get a surgery, and you get a surgery - SURGERY FOR EVERTONEEE!. To use a likely fairly well-know example - Game of Thrones. Sansa looks like her Southron mother, and is considered beautiful. Arya is bullyingly called "Arya horse-face." But Arya is also said to look like the infamous Lyanna Stark, who Rhaegar considered so beautiful he chose her to run off with as his second wife (yes, yes, laughing tree, yadda yadda, but don't tell me a handsome beloved prince surrounded by gorgeous women is making it with someone he's not attracted to even for a prophecy). So obviously to Rhaegar, Lyanna's Northerner-features (Andals and First Men etc. having different body characteristics) were beautiful, but to the south-born people she may not have been considered so (the Targaryens aren't actually Southron, they're foreigners so they don't quite count). If she was truly ugly instead of differently-beautiful, I doubt Rhaegar would've chosen her. But does child-Arya ever hear that she's just as pretty as Sansa just differently, or does she hear that she's simply not pretty? (I actually don't know, I've never read the books or seen a single complete episode, but my coworker tslks so much about it that between that and the internet, I've acquired an astonishing amount of knowledge about a fandom I don't actually follow).

And since I will be in school for 7ish years, i wont have to start paying back the loans until then, so I can save up money by working and doing internships throughout college and grad school and pay off my my college debt as soon as I finish grad school and get good credit. I already have 1/3 of my college ready to be paid from saving my money since I was born (my money, the money I get from birthday, christmas, etc.), and I'm getting half from scholarships, so I basically have 5/6 paid for.

She can sing, just not as well as people like Taeyeon or Bom. But, yeah.

Sure Dara is not as good of a singer as Bom (I don't really think Bom is that great of a singer anyway) or Yoona isn't as good as Hyoyeon in dancing but Dara CAN sing and Yoona CAN dance they wouldn't be in the group if they were untalented/mediocre.

I think the biggest problem is that people lose their own individuality. Plastic surgery is basicly not a thing that is bad, if it makes you more confident about your look... but they shouldn't have to look like anybody else. For me, I'd like to look like a beautiful, esthetic kind of myself. Thats enough, I don'T want to completely change. But when someone ignores a talent because of look... that's unacceptable.

In the USA mostly female Celebs get surgeries but it's more about losing weight or lifting the butt or getting bigger boobs. It is not a norm to completely change their face. Also in the USA, most of the celebs who change are female and white. They have very distinct features that if surgery was done to their face it is obvious (like Joan Rivers).

I can spot Korean plastic surgery incredibly easily. There is a certain eyeshape that many of the Kpop stars get that is a dead give away. The bad plastic surgery you're talking about is usually when people have had A LOT done, multiple procedures over multiple years. For example, the guy in this video who had multiple procedures and has had quite a lof of botox - I think looks bad, and its' very very noticable that he has had work done, especially the botox.

im really late to this video, but i’d like to address some things as a korean myself. korea is known for having high numbers of its residents getting plastic surgery; mostly double eyelid surgery, rhinoplasty (nose job) and jaw reduction (or v line jaw surgery). this is because of the importance of beauty in korea’s society. anywhere from extensive skincare routines to expensive makeup to surgeries, korea promotes and accepts all forms of beauty, and often pressures others to change themselves to look like the ideal type. many ppl go on extreme diets as well. they will starve themselves until they are just skin and bone, bc then ppl will praise them for being so thin. beauty is so important in korean society and is often considered more important then being smart or talented. for example, say you’re applying for a job and you’re far more beautiful than any of the others applying for the same job, but aren’t as smart as them. you will most likely receive the interview and the job mainly bc of your looks bc customers are more attracted to businesses w nicer looking employees, like hooters lol. another thing korea’s will do is bleach their skin w creams, lotions, or “white tanning”, which doesn’t really whiten your skin, but instead removes any tan you have gotten and makes your skin its original color. this concept comes from dynasties a long time ago, where the upper class or the royal had fairer skin than the working class/poor bc they weren’t out in the sun as farmers. the color of you’re skin instantly told those around you how much you make, bc obviously sunscreen didn’t exist then. so the idea of whiter skin would indicate youth and wealth, and became apart of the ideal type, bc it was considered more beautiful and elegant

I don't find anything wrong with people getting surgery to look better. Some people are not born with beautiful genetic features, sometimes they look great after. Just like me, I have horrible crowded teeth so I got braces and it is helping with my confidence a lot. I think the real problem is that most people who get it have really strong self esteem issues. I don't blame them tho, with all the media showing beautiful girls they see in advertisements getting slammed down there throats. Its only a matter of time when they grow older and wiser that they will soon realize that their is more to life than looking beautiful on the outside to be happy. To accept and love oneself for who they are first is something surgery can never change.

I don't think plastic surgery is wrong. I see it as a more permanent way of doing make up. But I think it should be used to boost confidence or enhance your own personal beauty. Not used to make most woman look the same. I honestly can't tell the difference between so many female singers/actresses anymore. They look the same. But the thing is you see predebut pics and they are still beautiful but have their own beauty. They are not made up to look like one ideal girl. I think that even if you do get surgery, they need to do it for themselves not for others. Many girls get it so guys will want them and vise versa, But guy's/girl's that will only look at you if you look like that disgust me. But you see male idols who are asked their ideal type and they always say a snsd member or a cute, small faced, bagel girl type (usually). Makes me really sad because they are the ones feeding into all the girls wanting to change and look better so they can appeal to the opposite sex.

Of course all of those ladies who have gotten plastic surgery are very beautiful but they all look the exact same. They have taken away their uniqueness of their culture and turned into carbon copies. I've always thought that Asian eyes are so beautiful. I've watched alot of Geisha documentaries and all of the Geishas are so very beautiful with their natural face and their vivid makeup. I think that it's sad how the young korean people think bechase of the k-pop influence.

The boy at 9:18 had such a handsome face, so defined with character and chiseled and now he looks fucked up. I'm guessing he's probably gay, which is awesome, but anyone would love his before plastic face than the face he has now. Not only did the procedures effect him physically, but he has a skewed look on reality. I hope he will realize that down the road. Feel sad when he begins to age.

I dont judge people who get this done. I use to want my nose done, but then I realized I am fine. I may not be the prettiest, but if I dont accept me for who I am, then who would. I would not date a guy who had lots of plastic surgery done, because its obviously he hated his features and how he looked, if we have a child it will have both of our features and I wonder will he think his own child is ugly...

To all who are saying this isn't sad, this is completely sad and crazy. Most of the people that wanted surgery looked great to me. They are so easily influenced by one another especially that one group of friends around that guy who has had $30,000 worth of procedures done to him. They all looked wonderful yet they wanted extensive procedures like jaw shaving and cheek bone surgery done. Yes other places do plastic surgery but the obsession to look good and the nonchalant approach to PS in South Korea is unrivaled anywhere else in the world.

Well i don't like pointing fingers but everybody wanted to become prettier or wished that they were born with these and that but like what the owner of the exhibition of Body Factory, people are starting to treat themselves as a product the are starting to lose their individuality remember that just because you looked better doesn't mean that you've become a better person, "once you step into the plastic surgery clinic you've become a monster"- 200 Pounds Beauty(2006), this video should also mention the aftermath of having plastic surgery, almost half of them who had gone under the knife wanted to 'undo' the whole procedure they REGRET the whole thing, because in my opinion i rather be accepted as a person who can laugh and expressed myself, besides who are they to judge how your face should be fixed and retouched ? humans are born with imperfections and that's what makes you YOU

Because the difference between 'beautiful' and 'ugly' is not such huge. A little difference can make you look different. But I think many people don't know what their problems are. Like that girl have double eye-lids surgery. Her problem is her jaw and cheekbone not her eyes.

I notice it's not korean's denying it or getting upset about it. It's always some foreigner in love with korea or korean idols. Because they don't want to admit korean's natural genetics don't produce people who have those characteristics that often. I'm sure it happens but it's not prevalent. Korean genetics only present smaller eyes squarish flattish faces. And no one here is calling it ugly or unattractive. It's just fact. Korean's admit it korean's like to change it and regular koreans will rarely deny that isn't so. So I don't know why foreigners take it upon themselves to make a fuss and call it a lie. Get over it your idol is most likely surgery made. Or had Photoshop on their face by a surgeon. Let it go. If you don't want to believe it fine, but don't get mad at people who've accepted it. And before those panties choke you to death, I don't think all koreans have surgery or idols for that matter. But I'd say most idols, and many koreans.

It's sad to me the focus here is so much on plastic surgery making them "prettier" with even that one mother telling her daughter she'll be prettier once she has surgery. I'm all for people doing what they want to do, but I'm also for people realizing their self esteem is important; if it's low, no amount of surgery will make them feel better. They'll have this unfulfilled hole in them that won't go away until they learn to like and accept themselves. They're so quick to say they're not pretty or someone else isn't pretty and claim surgery is the cure all. Its not and never will be. If anything, the high will be very temporary. These kids are so young, I wish they had more people helping them to learn the tools to gain esteem and confidence just as they are. They're just being suffocated with the superficial and no one is reminding them of what's actually important and what's going to really make them see their beauty. I wish they could like themselves because they seem like lovely people.

Those same people who bitch about their lives and country, but won't lift a finger to help it for the reasons of, being a chicken shit, or a sissy, or having a small penis or what ever may have you. I love the bashers that talk the most shit, and when asked, did you serve, scream fuck no... What does that tell you about them? They cry about shit they won't chance to help fix and they are cry babies at best. Probably wouldn't make it a day in Boot without sectioning out. Sorry for the rant Maam.
