    god the point Ashley was making about everyone wearing the same stuff is so true. it's super irritating when people call their faves a "fashionista" or "fashion icon" just because they look good in their outfits. most of the outfits are literally just what ashley described, that long coat, t shirt/button up, nice pants and dress shoes. literally anyone can look good in that outfit, especially if they have good proportions and they're already good looking like most korean celebs.
    a fashion icon is someone who dresses differently from other people and has the confidence to experiment with outfits that no one else is wearing. they set trends for other people to follow and they're not afraid to look "weird" because they would rather look "weird" and different than everyone else than just look good in an outfit that everyone else is wearing.

      It’s really annoying when someone gets called a fashion icon when they’ve got good proportions and are skinny but if someone wears the same outfit and is bigger they don’t get the same praise
      Also I think an example of a fashion icon would be Chaeyoung from Twice because she isn’t afraid to experiment with her fashion and wears different outfits to others

    I think growing up in America really helped out these guys' mental health/self esteem during that critical period of teen-young adult years. I know in many Asian countries, including Korea, the beauty standards are imposed at such a young age, around the pre-teen years, and things like weight, complexion and facial features are discussed about kids whether they like it or not. It must be so much worse for young idol trainees that have to meet the high standards successful idols have already set, it can take a serious toll on a person's mental health and self esteem. Growing up outside of that pressure in a country (and an age) where beauty is less constricted for the larger parts of 'growing up' years can be much healthier. That's probably not as relevant with this current generation (seriously, the pressures of social media, especially tiktok, on kids is crazy)

    • @Frau_Zett
      @Frau_Zett 3 года назад +88

      That was such a good comment, I 100% agree. A bit of peer pressure to look good would be normal in any society, however South Korea is taking it to the next level which is basically "lookism". Being so overly competetive in literally every aspect of life (education, income, appearance etc) is extremely detrimental to a person's mental health, because it's a simple fact that not everybody can achieve the same things in life no matter how hard they try. Some people aren't born that pretty, some people aren't born that smart, and that's perfectly fine. They should be supported and feel valued for who they are and what they are able to achieve, not shamed for who they can't be. I wasn't surprised to learn SK has the second highest suicide rate among OECD countries, this is a homemade problem.

      I totally feel you, though. It used to bug me when I was younger when I was made to feel lesser than what I was just because I was Asian. But once you grab a good hold of your individuality, those kinds of things don't seem to matter as much anymore.

      ​@@jasonpham8554I think people will find a reason to make you feel insecure, it's a power play. I'm a white, blue eye girl and live in England- so in theory I should fit in. But I was heavily bullied about my appearance that I ended up having such low self esteem that I became anorexic. Industries like the fitness, diet and beauty make money from our insecurities, white patriarchy, raises us to make us feel insecure about things like race and gender. There is obviously nothing wrong with being an Asian guy, but they don't want you to know your beauty and power because you can't they can't control people who truly know their worth and they can't make money off you

      @@colonthree9874 It's still not a 100% clear where any fetish comes from. Most scientists think that they are not hereditary, BUT from my personal experience, and I've talked about this with a bunch of other people who got a kink or fetish, I've had that thing since early childhood, so much so that I don't remember ever not having it.
      Btw, feet are more like a kink for me, rather then a fetish. There is a fine line between the two, but a fetish is something that's absolutely necessary for you to get off.
      Anyway, my main kink so to speak is actually tickling, haha. Feet are more like a combo thing with that for me.
      Btw, some people have argued that, because the parts of the brain responsible for feet and some sexual stuff are close to each other, sometimes neuron connections can be built that weren't supposed to be there. So that might have something to do with the reason why the foot fetish is one of the most common ones.

    I COMPLETELY agree with Ashley!! Even for me, being American, as soon as I started absorbing South Korean culture online, I've become so much more self conscious than ever about the TINIEST things that don't matter in the states. And that's just from consuming South Korean media for over 10 years of my life!
    What's even crazier is that MY KNEES were one of the things I became insecure about, too!!! I heard someone say it on a show and I realized I had "ugly knees" too. I also recently become insecure about my neckline! The trend now is to have an 'L' shape line from your neck to your shoulder, but I have a raised trap muscle.

People can look totally different and still be beautiful, we are not clones for christ's sake. Ironically I have always been drawn to the idols that were considered "ugly" because they captured my eye amongst all the polished uniformity that is going on in Kpop. Like RM and J-Hope are the hottest guys on earth imo and boy have they been given shit for their looks.

That's you RESPECTING YOURSELF, but we should still dress up when we're meeting other people/new people, cause that's one way of showing that we respect them, that's US RESPECTING OTHERS. He asked me to think bout it, "don't you feel good when you found out that s/he dressed up nicely just to meet you?" He also said, "it's a different story when you're with closer friend, when s/he tone down that means s/he finds you comfortable, and that's an awesome thing to happen too."
    So yea, all in all.. It made me think that every look is okay.. Every style is okay.. Cause the important thing to do is being considerate..about whom we are meeting, about the time, about the events/occasions, ya know.. just dress up accordingly.. :D

    Shaving down your face is not a minor procedure. And criticizing how your neck or knees look... what the hell is wrong with these agencies 😤 These trainees are young impressionable kids having to deal with all this unnecessary criticism and pressure to be perfect just to fulfill their dreams.

    I started watching podcasts for Matthew and ended up loving Peniel and Ashley. I love their personalities and how they complement each other.
    Matthew is sincere but without hurting others, he says what he thinks without caring about being judged, I discovered that he is a big boy with a sweet personality and that he can fall madly in love with someone. He prefers a person who follows his own style over someone who follows appearances (like Peniel) he is the type of person who tries to integrate and make everyone feel comfortable and is somewhat shy but when he comes into confidence he is super joker. And what I love is that he is a great person who tries to help EVERYONE.
    Peniel is the best friend that every woman wants, he is great to tell her your secrets because he knows how to keep them, he is very nice, he tries to follow his own rules and he does not care about the appearance of others, for him personality is more important. It is very sincere. He is a person who would ask you for advice. I always discover new things about him and I like them more. He is the type of person who would help a stranger and if someone had a bad day, they would come to make you smile. He seems to have a calm personality but he always radiates joy to those around him and does not like to tell his problems to others and prefers to be in a good mood.
    Ashley is the sweet girl who likes to make everyone feel comfortable, she would be the cutest little sister. She is very respectful and tries to see the positive in people, she is faithful. she takes care of her friends. And it would be great to do girls' night with her. She’s a beautiful girl, but she doesn’t flaunt it. She’s the shy girl who loves her friends and seems to always try to be with her friends when they need her. She doesn’t know how great she is. I hope no one turns off the smile she has and don’t forget that she’s perfect just the way she is, she doesn’t need to adjust to what others think.
    The three of them have different but similar personalities at the same time, I love that they seem not to be influenced by being famous. It seems that being famous does not make them think that others are better, they are humble boys with whom you could sit and talk without noticing that they are idols. I hope you don't change, guys. I love your podcasts, your advice and knowing more about your way of thinking that makes me realize that you and I are no different. I think you are the perfect friends because you are not interested in the race, religion, country or appearance of other people, the only important thing is personality and that is great because there are more people like you in the world.

And that's very hideous and disgusting) so the way I look at it is if someone who is "dirty or unattractive or weird looking" is a good person, has a great personality just the way they carry themselfs, that's what I consider beautiful or having beauty because it's something that is precious and has value

    I would say the beauty standards in Korea is ridiculous. It really makes you feel insecure. When a celebrity weight more than 50kg, it's embarassing for them.
    It's different than western entertainment industry, where celebrities try to be fit not skinny.
