major international attention in the late 90s. so what's the story behind the so-called korean wave, also known as halue? the influence of celebrities on cosmetic. surgery is not limited to individuals, now we're talking about cultural waves, like the korean cultural wave known as hulleyu. haliu is south korea's cultural influence in the world. the wave that started in the late 90s with a change in the approach of policy makers of this country. at that time, koreans decided to prove themselves. to the people of the world both economically and culturally. it was for this reason that korean products such as home appliances, cars and other products gradually found their way in the life of people in the world. the quality of
3:12 pm
these products could convince global customers to buy them, but there was still one more step left. corea. americans had decided to export their culture by removing combersome obstacles. the mass production of movies. theories and even computer games was the result of this big decision, high quality cultural works that could captivate the audience on the same televisions made in korea. along with the popularity of these works, korean artists also gained international fame. of course, the scope of haliyu is not limited to movies and series.
3:13 pm
korean pop music or k-pop has now become one the most popular styles in the world, artists of this style such as bts have become so famous that they're invited to the united nations and to the most... television programs in the us, today, thank you so much for doing the uh, the the the fortnite dances uh, this morning, that was so fun, thank you, thank you for being involved in that sketch, of course, the fame of these singers has a dark side, these artists have a strange appearance, recognizing their gender identity is not an easy task, and in some cases, they look like japanese anime characters. of course, the root of this exaggerated and
3:14 pm
artificial appearance lies behind the scenes the korean music industry. these famous faces go through a difficult path to reach their position. korean music companies have set their own rules for making a star from multi-year exploitative contracts to dieting. from forced stay in the camp and hard sports training to numerous plastic surgeries on the face. the aim of these companies is to turn these young people into exotic models, models that become showpieces with cosmetic surgery for more profit. k-pop celebrities are the idols of their fans. idols that are worshiped and fans try to be like them in every way.
3:15 pm
some say that these hundreds of millions of fans are like an army, an army that obeys their superiors unquestioningly. being member of this invisible army has also found interesting aspects. for you to enjoy a song, it doesn't matter if it's not sung in english, well i used to think that, but now i cuz that's all i here now, so i'm sort of understanding what they're saying a little bit, so it's not too bad, she's getting there, you got to listen to it lot for you to understand it, but it's not too bad, maybe some people watching this will be like, but the songs are in korean, does that matter to you, it shouldn't matter, like people listen to spanish and stuff like that, so korean shouldn't be any different to be honest.

foreign fans of these singers now travel to south korea more than before, both for attending concerts and visiting beauty clinics. the cost of cosmetic surgery in south korea is about a third of the cost of cosmetic surgery in the united states. for this reason, a strange phen phenomenon called surgical tourism has arisen in south korea. for several years now, korean surgeons have been advertising in other languages on the internet so that this industry becomes more prosperous with foreign travelers. surgical tourists have taken up almost half of this industry in korea. tourists who watch bts music videos on their return flight.
