yes. im korean and i have heard that some parents actually DO start a fund for plastic surgery. my parents think thats stupid because they are scared of surgery going wrong. koreans are OBESSESD with double eyelid surgery and nose surgery..its become normal and praised for if you get surgery [to look better] because asain culture is more shallow then american culture. at least americans teach thier kids its inner beauty that counts...im sure many asain parents teach this as well but its just not in the culture; women are pretty on the surface for the men.

I'm not sure about saving up "funds" for their children's plastic surgery, but what I do know is out of all the Asian nationalities they are extremely obsessed with "double-eyelid surgery". Why? because they are very self conscious about their looks I guess.
I know at least half the people in other Asian countries have natural double eyelids, but for the Koreans, about 75% of them don't have double eyelids, and it's not that they are trying to look like White folks or anything, they seem to gravitate on wanting to have "double Asian eyelids" instead.
No I am not prejudice, I'm telling the truth. A lot of other Asians will also know that Koreans do in fact have the smallest eyes compared to everyone else in the continent of Asia. Besides, I'm Asian too, and I want people to hear the FACTS from an actual Asian person, I'm not Korean though.

I havn't heard anything like that myself (i am korean with korean parents) lol they are so against plastic surgery and changing looks etc. It all depends on parents. Nobody says korean parents prepare a plastic surgery fund for their childeren, nobody says its not americans that do or dont. Its just personal preference alhtough i find it really dumb to prepare a plastic surgery fund? lmao i ve never heard of it

of direction this is real. The Korean peninsula turn into nuked interior the 50's and the only people left died out. In an dazzling attempt to hide those info from an unsuspecting public the united statesA. and China employed actors to "play" the korean people. yet lots of the actors have been white, black, no longer asian, so they instituted a application of cosmetic surgical technique, each baby born there now has a series of operations over the 1st 15 years to be certain they "look korean". i wish that solutions your question.

It's completely preposterous! Hell no! Whoever told you this is an idiot.
Now, on the same subject, I must tell you that a lot of actresses in Korea do get plastic surgery.
I think someone exaggerated it a little.

Why would they be doing that, so I asked a Korean professor in the language lab, he says no. I go with his expertise.

Where did you hear that one? a crack party? or a rubber room reunion? Most Korean families have all they can do to just get by.
