Buzzfeed chooses G-Dragon, Won Bin and EXO as “Men’s Standards Of Beauty Around The World” for South Korea
In a recent article by Buzzfeed, the American internet news website chose G-Dragon, Won Bin and the members of EXO as the “hottest” male celebrities in South Korea.
It’s no surprise that in a research study involving twelve different countries that the beauty standards differ greatly in each country. In the case of South Korea, Buzzfeed concluded that Hallyu (Korean Wave) was in fact a major determining factor in modern day male beauty standards in the country.
With soft features, toned and muscular bodies, and bold fashion sense, Korean celebrities G-Dragon, Won Bin, and the members of EXO highlight the elite in the country. Facial features, such as large eyes, double eyelids, and a pronounced nose with a high bridge are incredibly sought-after in Korea. With the strict beauty standards in Korea, however, the website also brought up the issue of plastic surgery, which is also very prevalent among South Korean men.
