According to the New Yorker Magazine, South Korea is the cosmetic surgery capital of the world.

Quote:
By some estimates, the country has the highest rate of plastic surgery per capita in the world. The United States has sagged to No. 6, though we still have the greatest total number of procedures. It has been estimated that between one-fifth and one-third of women in Seoul have gone under the knife, and one poll reported by the BBC puts the figure at fifty per cent or higher for women in their twenties. Men, by one account, make up fifteen per cent of the market, including a former President of the country, who underwent double-eyelid surgery while in office.


I am glad I don't live in South Korea.
