We live in a society that constantly tells us to chase after beauty. Koreans tend to be excessively concerned about their physical appearances, and this largely contributed to the ever-growing number of plastic surgery clinics in the country.
And thanks to the growing popularity of Korean culture, foreigners now make up a large portion of clients ― many come to Korea for this purpose only.
The Korea Times had a chance to meet Oli London, who flew all the way from the U.K. to go under the knife at a plastic surgery clinic here in Korea. He introduced himself as a huge fan of BTS' Jimin. He then agreed he was slightly past the point of being just an avid fan of Jimin, buying BTS merchandise and concert tickets ― he now wants to look as much as possible like his idol.
