1. [+362, -19] Reminds me of what Henry said... that plastic surgery is a personal choice and it's not anything bad but that plastic surgery ads should not be allowed....

2. [+302, -33] Our society has been lookism based for a long time already...

3. [+291, -12] I really do hate all the plastic surgery ads spammed around the streets and subways... All of my foreign friends commented on it when they visited Seoul, about how surprised they were by it

4. [+23, -11] Society promotes it as well. You have to admit that the handsome or pretty have a better chance when it comes to job interviews.

5. [+20, -3] I do think plastic surgery ads should be banned. It's no different from ads promoting cryptocurrency

6. [+18, -2] Why do these articles always make it seem like it's only a problem in Korea? ㅋㅋㅋ What about Japan? China? Or even America and Europe? People are obsessed with looks everywhere. And you think men aren't victims of that? People always prefer handsome men with great bodies too. It can't be helped. It's just how humans are wired.

7. [+15, -1] As a woman, I understand why looks are important. I got double eyelid surgery after graduating college and took care of my looks and body more and life got so much easier... the way people treat you just changes. It's helped my personality become a lot more flexible too...

8. [+9, -5] It's true, being pretty is all that matters. Doesn't matter if you have rocks for brains, if you're pitifully poor... if you're pretty, someone is going to marry you. Waste all that time studying only for no one to bother with you if you're ugly or fat.

9. [+8, -1] Natural beauties are more popular lately but the key word here is 'beauty'... not only do you have to be natural but beautiful too ㅋㅋ so yeah, basically being pretty is the best thing. You can talk down about plastic surgery all you want in the comments but you can't break the wall that lookism has created in society.
