In the last few years, Korean culture has influenced not only in America but also in many Asian countries. I wasn't surprised that Korean culture had crossed over to Vietnam but I was really shocked at the degree of influence. I traveled to Vietnam a few times in the last 10 years and each time Korean influence becomes more and more dominate. Many of the young and wealthy adults were dressing in Korean fashion, make-up, plastic surgery, and etc. Vietnam, being a communist country was really closed-off to other countries for a long time but now it has changed 180 degrees. I take this as a change in the times for Vietnam and I believe it's for the better.
