I teach about 200 different students and I've noticed a disproportionate number of kids who are cross-eyed in Korea. Anyone else get this? What's the deal?

I have my own little theory, although it might be completely nonsense: I noticed that many of the K-pop stars are cross eyed, and I also heard about the surgery to make your eyes look bigger. I figured they had made their eyes look bigger on the outside, but not compensated enough on the inside making the pupils look like they are facing inwards.

This is just a wild guess, and I have never heard anyone else mentioning it, so I am most likely wrong.

I haven't really noticed it much. to be honest i've taught hundreds of kids here and don't even seem to remember a kid having that problem
