LOL she's also friends with Danny and Teddy - as I said, longgg story but if I go to Korea - one day - I will be sure to take her with me 😆
Yea, I heard that about department stores and makeup...everything is pretty much superficial and physical...I mean even if you look at a lot of the girl/guy groups, you don't even really need to be a decent singer, just being pretty can get you really far *cough*Yoona*cough* (sorry SNSD fans). What I find interesting is male physical beauty in Korea...like I totally get females, since the beginning of time woman have been scrutinized for their physical beauty, even in the Western world, women are constantly objectified and judged by their physical appeal and this is even more heightened in Korea but the amount of importance places on male beauty and appearance is fascinating...I mean for godsake, you have a whole category for them "flower boys" - and even drama's driven by the whole concept ("boys over flowers", "shut up flower boy band", "flower boys next door"). A lot of people new to korean entertainment culture are repeatedly turned off by the female like qualities of the males and I don't blame them, I mean, heck all 5 SHINEE members have better legs than I do!
