Yeah. It's their life, but I still think it's sick for people to spend thousands of dollars just to look more accepted and more western at that.

On a different note, this is probably because most South Koreans are pretty infatuated with the west and their cultures. Can't say it's a wrong thing, but I still think it's strange.

If you asked any Korean why they wanted surgery I'm sure you won't find one who says, "I wanted to look more Western." Every story of PS I've read (that has come out of SK) was that they wanted to look more like their idols. They wanted those Double Eyelids because their idols had them, or they wanted that V-Line Jaw because their favorite K-Drama Idol had one, or that they just wanted to "fit in."

I've never seen one person say they wanted to be more Western. I doubt any of them see it that way.

Yeah it's a giant mass of conformism and media.
