For a whole month, 21-year-old Pei Lina did not dare to go out and did not dare to go online.
Originally, she was just an ordinary Korean beauty blogger, sending some makeup videos, cats, dogs and dogs videos, which was very lucky.
But suddenly one day, she received tens of thousands of bullying messages. Some even threatened to kill her.
Just because she posted a video on YouTube. A video that says he doesn't want to wear makeup anymore.
"I know I'm not pretty. I know it myself, and others keep reminding me. ”
He is 163cm tall and weighs 192 pounds.
I have to admit that Pei Lina really does not meet the aesthetic requirements of most East Asians for women, especially in South Korea, where even Brother A Bing has to wear a beauty mask.
But Pei Lina did not suffer from all kinds of criticism from childhood.
When she was a child, she was also a cute little public figure, because she was cute and spoiled in various ways.
While in school, she unfortunately developed a tumor, and surgery and a large number of hormone drugs made her acutely obese.
The world was cold, and those classmates who used to praise her cuteness not only did not comfort her, but began to laugh at her fatness.
The boy no longer wants to be at the same table with her, saying that she is a fat woman all day long, and even viciously reprimanding: "Fat woman, why don't you die?" ”
Even strangers unleashed malice toward her. On the street, she would be stopped by strangers: "Your dignified face makes my eyes rotten!" ”
When I went to the gym, someone came and chased her: "Why don't you come out and shame people, just stay at home!" ”
The huge psychological gap has caused Lina to have a strong self-doubt, she is anorexia, afraid to socialize, and even wants to commit suicide.
"No, I'm really ugly, I have to be pretty, so that I can be popular, and only then will someone like me!"
Lina, who developed this emotion, desperately lost weight, put on makeup, and even opened a channel on YouTube to teach the same fat girls to make up.
It has to be said that this really makes Lina start to be welcomed by some people with the same disease again.
In order to win the hearts of more people, she also tried to transform into a funny person.
But YouTube allowed her to expose herself to more people and accept more harsh rebukes.
Vicious remarks surrounded Lina:
"Dead fat woman", "ugly bastard", "so ugly makeup is useless", "big pie face"...
How many times has she tried so hard to cater to the eyes of the public, hoping to be more or less affirmed.
Knowing that she would be scolded, she still hardened her scalp and introduced her new makeup in a different way, hoping that someone would understand and affirm her.
But she was greeted with more and more cold eyes and ridicule.
Little Pin didn't know what kind of twisted hearts these people were, and would actually leave vicious words under the video of a stranger.
Probably because there is no cost to post a message online, they swear, and no one will punish him by following the network cable.
Lina felt herself, more and more unable to hold on.
Finally, one day, a message made Lina explode completely.
A girl who also suffers from obesity and is only a little thinner than her, not only does not cheer with her, but sneers under her video:
"Great, thank you, oh, your dignity dares to come out and shoot a video to shame people, I feel that I should pick up the courage to live." 」
Lina was blinded. She looked at her makeup tray and froze, not knowing what the point of being a beauty blogger again was.
Emotions of self-doubt hung over her. She was full of a few words: "I'm not pretty." ”
"I'm not pretty, so I don't deserve love?"
"I'm not pretty, so I don't deserve to be treated well?"
……
"Why?"
Lina began to question all this.
"I'm not pretty, so I have to wear makeup to hide my characteristics and please others?" I don't. ”
After a long period of consideration, Lina uploaded another video called "I'm not pretty, but it's okay."
At the beginning of the video, she is plain-faced, with freckles on her face and uneven skin tone. Bad reviews drift through the video:
"Pigs also wear makeup?" "Men don't like this makeup."
Lina didn't react at all to this and put on her full makeup as usual.
Then she removed her makeup clean.
In the video, Lina announces that she has since given up her makeup:
"I'm not pretty, but it's okay."
"I decided to let people see who they really are!"
Anyway, whether it is makeup or not, it will be dissed, then it is also a bird? Lina exclaimed:
"It's not good looking and shouldn't be blamed. The garbage concept of looking at people should be diss! ”
With a moment's hesitation, Lina sent out this makeup removal video. Sure enough, the bad comments were overwhelming.
Thousands of bad reviews poured into her mailbox, some calling her ugly, and others threatening to find her and kill her.
The frightened Lina even hid at home for a month, but she did not regret it:
"I thought about it for a long time before doing this, and I wasn't afraid of any result!"
It is this boldness that has won her support.
If Lina's target audience before was some little fat girls, then this video touched almost all the girls.
7.46 million people watched the video, and after the bad reviews, countless encouragement flew into Lina's private message, and a thousand words converged into one sentence:
The people of the world, suffering from appearance for a long time!
BBC, CNN, The New York Times... The international media have reported on Pei Lina.
This little fat girl who was humiliated because she had no makeup and no p-picture unveiled the unspeakable pain of countless Korean girls.
According to BBC, the Size of South Korea's beauty industry is among the largest in the world, with annual sales of about $13 billion.
Korean girls have to wear makeup when they go out, and if they don't wear makeup, it's as if they don't have any clothes.
South Korean public opinion is extremely demanding on the appearance and appearance of girls, for example:
All female news anchors in South Korea can not wear framed glasses on the show, can only wear invisible, no other reason, the leader figure is good.
In order to support Lina, MBC anchor Ren Hyun-joo wore glasses on the show, and the result became a sensational big news, and he was also criticized by the leadership.
In an interview with BBC, Lina said:
"I think Korean women are wearing body-shaping clothes, forced to live according to the requirements of public opinion, and can't even decide whether they wear makeup or not."
"I'm not against makeup, but I want everyone to have the freedom to wear makeup or not."
This was the beginning of the "escape the corset" movement.
More and more oppressed women joined the movement and began to challenge the stereotypes and restrictions on women in Korean society, saying no to forced makeup.
Someone destroyed their own makeup, cut off their long hair, and showed their true selves to the society (the two pictures below are the same person
Many plmm said that they obviously did not want to wear makeup but were forced to wear makeup to work, getting up one hour early every day, troublesome and expensive.
After understanding that they were wrapped up in a single aesthetic, they withdrew in time and became more authentic themselves.
"Spending the time and money forced to wear makeup on food, drink, study, and drag is the right thing to do!"
Lina began publishing books, giving interviews, and sharing sessions.
She no longer feels inferior to her looks, but uses her personal experience to encourage those who are also bullied because of their appearance.
"I'm not pretty, but it doesn't matter if I'm not pretty. You don't need to abuse yourself because of the sight of others. ”
"You can not be pretty, you can be slim, but no one can hurt you because of it."
"You don't need to compare yourself to others, you're a special being."
More and more netizens, celebrities, and opinion leaders have chosen to support Lina.
Like Goose Boy, Lina's courage touched him, and the two talked happily, even dancing happily.
The make-up campaign has become a storm for South Korean women to fight for their rights.
As anchor Ren Hyun-joo said:
"We are not against makeup, but rather demand that women should enjoy the freedom to wear makeup:
There is both the freedom to wear makeup and the freedom not to wear makeup; there is the freedom to make this kind of makeup, and there is also the freedom to make that kind of makeup;
There is the freedom to wear makeup without makeup in the past, and there is also the freedom to wear makeup in the past and not to wear makeup now.
The only reason to decide on a woman's makeup should be to see if I am willing. ”
