How is beauty defined in your culture or in the Korean society?

Many Korean people think “Beauty or good-looking is a kind of the given talent.” Attractiveness is considered a top priority in some field like entertainment industry. The Korean entertainment industry is too focused on the appearance and beauty. So beauty standards in Korea are mostly influenced by celebrities. Both the face and the look they show on the media become the beauty standard. And many teenagers are interested in beauty and makeup, including plastic surgery in order to become their idols. I think this public opinion is way wrong and badly affects young generations. We must acknowledge and remember that everyone can look good in their own way.

Hi there once again Ms. [이름]!

K-Pop as well as the existing pop culture in your country as well as other countries around the world had defined beauty according to body types, skin color, make up, surgery among others. It can be tough to find someone beautiful not botched nowadays. Anyway, while we acknowledge their freedom to choose their looks, we cannot also deny the fact that there is great beauty in what is natural and God-given. After all, real confidence comes from addressing what you are and you are not and embracing the imperfections, being comfortable with them, and loving yourself no matter what people think of your appearance.

Thank you for your very meaningful answer!
