And.... after our visit to the Korean Culural Center and what our host had to say about how she felt entering Korea... It makes me really appreciate what these women are protesting against! It’s probably really difficult to be that not perfectly “Barbie” girl in a land that everyone is manically obsessed with becoming. I thought the perfect beauty culture was bad in the US. Wow. So the struggle against that perfectionism must be really difficult. I think Celeste is correct... the word for it is Bravery.
