There has long been a culture of striving for "perfection" in the Korean entertainment industry, which has put tremendous pressure on artists.
Appearance is the minimum threshold in the entertainment industry, and it is even better in the Korean entertainment industry.
Artists must not only maintain a perfect figure, but also pay attention to their makeup and clothing at all times.
This extreme emphasis on appearance has led to the prevalence of plastic surgery culture, and it has also brought huge psychological pressure to artists.
