본문
Suddenly most people in Korea are starting to concentrate on their good looks. To be exact, it is not a sudden phenomenon for a certain of people. In the past, Some of them especially women concerned their looks. Nowadays, not only women but also men are crazy about their appearances.
This trend has been triggered by our cyber culture. In our cyber community, the easiest way to know each other is their images such as their appearances and bodies for one or two second. I am wondering what would be happened if most young men are crazy about their image, Through this social trend, I hope men are able to realize that it is unfair to evaluate them according to how they look and start changing their attitude to ugly women as well as plump women . ^^
Many Koreans today are putting extra effort into improving their appearances... in light of a new social phenomenon of admiring good looks. While some are welcoming the trend for helping promote healthy life styles... others voice concerns that people are falling prey to idealized images of beauty.
An unprecedented trend is sweeping across this country... to become an "eoljjang" or a "momjjang"... the two shortened Korean slang words for "pretty face"... and "knockout body". Since the words began to spread like wildfire in cyberspace earlier this year...
Many young Koreans are turning to shaping up their appearances... in hopes of acquiring the tag that reads "good-looking."
At the center of this social phenomenon... is an ordinary woman in her late 30s... who posted her story of becoming a "momjjang" herself on the Internet. A mother of two kids... the woman's unbelievable appearance triggered an explosive response.
But there are others who express concerns that the trend has gone too far. They argue the idea of standardized beauty... with many trying to gain acceptance through copycatting the perfect image... is not right.
They also stress... that good looks aren't always the shortcut to popularity.... social status... and money. "I think the media has played the biggest role in triggering this latest craze. You see so many stars with good appearances on TV... and that's what drives people to visualize those images and hit the gym."
Maximizing fitness... could be the goal without falling prey to the latest craze. So say many observers... who also point to the fact that after all... "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."
"Is it just a shallow obsession over looks or an aspect of the well-being trend?
Whatever the answer, experts warn against agonizing over that perfect figure, stressing that what should come first... is learning to appreciate our natural shapes.
