Whatever makes them happy.

I just hate it when girls feel like they NEED to get it, but don't want too

Can we please STOP feeding the OP. Look at his comments, posts and threads he's started since he joined 3 weeks ago. He does nothing but bash Koreans, stir the pot and has made ZERO constructive comments. He is trolling you guys.

I actually think he and about 3-4 other new posters are all the same person.


Haha. You crack me up. Warrior Eagle, or whatever you want to be. I'm a troll and actually 3 or 4 people? Yeah, ok. It says more about you than me that you'd think someone would waste their time being so crafty. I'm posting for the same reason others do. Trying to see if others have had the same experiences I have and trying to make sense of it all. Don't project your own personality and behaviour patterns on others.
And if you read my posts carefully, I did say I am grateful for my Korean friends who are loyal.

I honestly think their beef is these girls want nothing to do with them and theyre mad about it. Otherwise why else would they care about them?

Wrong. I'm dating a dirty blonde Irish-American girl and I am happy with her "natural" beauty. I've dated beautiful girls before her. I simply do not feel any attraction for Korean girls. I never had the need for them. It seems to me that many who cannot date decent looking girls from their own society bottom feed by dating Korean girls.

You guys familiar with the concept of the "uncanny valley?" I think that in some cases subtle changes to a Korean girl's natural features can actually enhance her looks, but in cases like this http://cfile3.uf.tistory.com/image/223C9C3D51EA4E6E253C07 we end up in the uncanny valley.

Totally unnatural and to me, completely repulsive.


Dude I agree. Totally freaky. It's what I mean when I say I cringe for them and cannot look at them. I wonder what will happen too at these girls in 10-20 years when the plastic surgery goes south like it did with Michael Jackson.

Like many things, it seems plastic surgery is less common down here. 75% or whatever figure someone mentioned seems really high to me, and doesn't seem right when I think of the young Korean women I know.

Is it rude to ask?

To be fair her eyes look particularly weird because of make up designed to make them look as big as possible. If that was toned down a bit she'd not look weird to me- though I'd certainly notice the nose

Boy, what a racist statement against Korean women.

Recently when I see a girl done up, I almost have the opinion it's out of style, or will be looked back on as a trend. They all starting looking one particular way and that look is becoming less rare and exotic. Perhaps they will look back in regret like anyone who got a barbwire tattoo which was cool when it was in, but is now rather comical.

Eyes, nose and boobs are done up. That said, it doesn't mean she wasn't attractive before surgery and that she wouldn't be attractive without buttering her face with countless layers of make-up.

I'd still give her a free hug.
And since some find her unattractive, I might feel obligated to give her a few extra ones, too. Wink

I like the natural look. There's nothing wrong with looking ... East Asian.

A pointy nose and big eyes is not the only standard of beauty.

I really don't favor the stretched goldfish eye look.
The forehead dome is bad too.
Fake breasts? No thanks, I'll take any size over fakes.
Pointy nose with the skinny stretched nostrils? No thanks.
Cutting and sanding away the jawbones? Don't even want to know!

Plus, all the doctors seem to be doing almost all the same modifications, and they all start to look the same. Just look at the K-pop clones.

So many girls in Seoul get surgery, it's hard to know who did and who didn't. But just go to some small towns in the country... "So THAT'S how they really look." Hmm...

That said, if not taken too far, the surgery can upgrade their looks. A fair number of them would be fairly homely or average without it. Again, just compare Seoul to the rest of the country.

Your posts make no sense, you're contradicting yourself.

"I like the natural look! Surgery?! No thanks!"

"Hey now... a little surgery doesn't hurt! Some look better with it!"

Some Korean girls look very nice with surgery; some Korean girls look too similar with surgery and some Korean girls look down right awful with surgery.

Personally, I prefer the without surgery look as I don't want to be looking around thinking "Hey! That girl over there has an identical nose to you!"
