Hello,

Thank you for your post! I really enjoyed reading your topic. As someone who has a few Korean friends and follow some Korean influencers on Youtube, I can relate to some of the beauty standards that you mentioned, specifically the desire for “porcelain skin” and double eyelids. I agree that with the rise of Korean pop culture, plastic surgery is becoming normative. Especially since many Korean celebrities endorse and are praised for their appearances, the stigma surrounding cosmetic surgery is significantly reduced in Korea and has become an ordinary aspect of daily life.

A suggestion would be to explain Korean Beauty from an intersectional perspective - describe beauty standards from other countries and compare how beauty standards are different depending on different social relations and experiences. Overall, great page!
