Looks quite scary. Like the first time I saw a middle school girl staring up at me with those black contact lenses  |

poor kid, shell get stigmatied for sure.
its funny, that ive been here since the 90s, and now that Korea has become rich, the ones with money do their damndest to look white. I was watching running man in a restaurant, and I swear a few of those guys are looking like white americans. |

I wouldn't know. I've never met Satan before. |

Whatever you've seen in the movies I guess is comparable. |

| That's one creepy looking sprog. Were I in the house with that thing I'd definitely be sleeping with the door locked - that's for sure. |

Don't say that. She is as cute as any child can be.
The young mother and her baby girl have become a research object. It�s now obvious that the eye color phenotype is not confined to a specific racial group(s). It�s a good example of genetic epistasis - a phenomenon in which the expression of one gene depends on the presence of one or more "modifier genes." A gene whose phenotype is expressed is called epistatic, while one whose phenotype is altered or suppressed is called hypostatic. So the gene responsible for �blue� eye phenotype is hypostatic for all Koreans. But some interactions between the modifier genes or mutations in the genes triggered the hypostatic gene (s) to express the hidden phenotype as seen in the baby girl. It�s extremely rare though. <- Wikipedia |

Actually, that's not why she has blue eyes. The doctor says it's a melanin disorder. Violet-blue eyes are common with people who have a melanin disorder. |

| If the daughter got it with only her mom having blue eyes, I imagine it's a dominant gene... |
