1. [+227, -7] Koreans care too much about what others think

2. [+125, -51] I live abroad and it's not like that at all. In American pools, you can wear t-shirts and shorts inside the pools so people with bodies like Lee Guk Joo wear t-shirts and cover themselves. Even foreigners won't view you positively if you're of Lee Guk Joo's size but wearing a bikini;;;

3. [+98, -25] It's always the celebrities who've been on a few vacations overseas who act like know it alls and talk on TV about how "foreigners don't care what others think", "fat people wear swimsuits", etc. Oh please. Try living abroad longer than for a vacation. Fat people in swimsuits are only the 10% and people all stare just like Koreans do. Do you think they're staring because they're impressed by their confidence? Nononononono, because they're fat. The only difference between foreign countries and Korea is that foreigners keep those thoughts to themselves while Koreans say it to your face. Foreigner or not, everyone looks at a fat person in a swimsuit and thinks the same thing.

4. [+10, -1] I went abroad last year and a women 1.5 times the size of Lee Guk Joo were sun tanning in a bikini ㅋㅋㅋ It's so mentally healthy to not care about what others think

5. [+7, -0] It's a difference in confidence levels. Thanks to my parents who praised me for the littlest things growing up, I don't care much about what others think.
