how much do I hate this headline? "Unable to afford Gangnam-style plastic surgery, Korean teens deploy DIY methods": http://www.globalpost.com/dispatch/news/regions/asia-pacific/south-korea/131203/korean-teens-deploy-diy-cheap-alternative-gang …

@sarahjeong@nicolecallahan All of it is written by non-Koreans too, as far as I can tell.
@arissaoh @nicolecallahan oh totally, otherwise we'd get maybe a more nuanced and less "let's gawk at these people" approach (GOD FORBID)

@sarahjeong@arissaoh right, and we need a piece like that, bc the whole trend is troubling--but I'm so sick of the endless crappy articles -
@nicolecallahan@sarahjeong I've been collecting biblio so I can write something up but, you know: there's the ? of time. -
@arissaoh@nicolecallahan I want to read something on this but I also do not envy anyone the gross task of writing it up -
@sarahjeong@nicolecallahan I *cringe* even now thinking abt that Jezebel article. And the This American Life piece. -
@arissaoh@nicolecallahan I haven't heard the TAL piece. I googled it. I can't. I just can't -
@sarahjeong@arissaoh it was new to me too. The one that's all "I'm an American in Korea giving a lesson on 'beauty' to my students"?

@sarahjeong@arissaoh that amount to little more than white journalists being like OMG CAN YOU BELIEVE THOSE FUCKED UP PEOPLE -
@nicolecallahan@arissaoh do you remember when Jezebel covered it? It was so bad and none of my white feminist friends were uncomfortable -
.
@sarahjeong@arissaoh yes, I DO remember that.@graceishuman warned me not to read it, BUT I DID
