Beauty standards in both Korea and Japan are very different from here. In Korea the beauty standard is to look like a k-pop idol or someone who had or has fame. Unlike k-pop idols they break beauty standards and have some features that are considered to be unique. The standard in Korea is to have a slim figure, small face, v-shaped jaw, pale skin, straight kg are 12 eyebrows, flawless skin, and larger eyes.  A Lot of these beauty are influenced by tv shows, k-pop idols, actors.  Something that changed was that being curvy was being overweight, but along the months a k-pop idol named Ahn Hye-jin stage name Hwasa, Was known to have a curvy body.  For Korea being overweight as a woman is being more than 50kg, 50kg are 110 pounds The ideal weight is 47kg, 47kg are about 103 pounds.  Studies show that About 4% of the adult population is obese in Korea, and about 30% are overweight (including obese).
