The entire world prefers white skin, except a small portion of western white people.

White people are the whitest skinned, and have the most soft power, everyone watches western white media.

But all the people in white media are tanned and brown as fuck because it's their beauty standard to be tanned.

So white people portrayed in media isnt ideal




The 2nd lightest people are... North East asians, like Koreans
1728574013140

They have soft power + their media portrays the whitest skinned ones of their people

So they're peak appeal globally ngl



Korea has 0 softpower in west europe and north america tbh. It's just eastern europe and latam and south asia, cos they're the ones who like white skin

No one gives af about it in west europe cos they dont like white skin and got their own media




Tldr: White peoples media is looksmaxxed to appeal to white people. Korean media is looksmaxxed to appeal to the rest of the entire globe. Putting them as the highest smv globally(not to whites tho), even tho they're not actually like that in person.
 
their softpower in eastern europe, latam, south asia is high for being an asian country but it's still very far from US/europe media

in latam #1 foreigners are US/western europe white people
the % of girls that have koreans as #1 is not that high

in person, euros mog the fuck out of everyone

but in their heads, the most handsome celebrities which fit their beauty standards will be korean

they wont think about the most handsome euro celebrities cos they all paint themselves brown

but most girls dont give a fuck about korean media
it's a lot more "niche" than people think, however the girls that love korean media are so loud and obssessed about it

while of them are 100% exposed to US and europe
latam has lots of exposure to spain for example, and europe in general through that
same for brasil
 
I pretty much agree with this. Pop culture soft power shapes people's SMV substantially. Obviously, white people got the most out of this due to decades if not centuries of positive soft power projection, like Hollywood.

Korea is an interesting case because of how rapidly they managed to improve their perception. Go back 30 years ago and people would have a very different opinion. You can also see this generationally; it's mostly gen-z women who are into the Koreans.

Only thing I would add is that Japan is more or less equal in terms of SMV for men. For women, it's even higher.

but this is what im saying. whites didnt get anything out of it. cos all white chads paint themselves brown so nobody in the world is attracted to them except other whites

keep in mind the entire globe except western europeans, prefer white skin on men. and are physically NOT attracted to tanned skin.

SO LITERALLY NO WHITE ACTOR IS HOT TO THE ENTIRE GLOBE, THEY'RE ONLY HOT TO US WESTERN EUROPEANS

100%
Korea is unique because their media was created to be appealing to the west, hypersexualized
it's literally a strategy designed to gain soft power
it's also the most extreme looksmaxxing society, the average korean is quite ugly if it was not for the gym, fashion, surgery, skincare...

while Japan is basically japanese anime, videogames that got famous, without them trying to make it that way
so japan has a shit ton of soft power but girls arent attracted to japanese men

I agree with what you're saying, the tanned beauty standard in the West ("tall and dark") doesn't apply to places like Asia so it helps the pale skin crowd stand out.

That being said there are still plenty of light-featured men featured in media:

1728602097813172860216193317286022094081728602532653

I guess they may have some kind of a tan but it's probably not going to hurt them much if at all.

BTW, what you're saying can also apply to beards. Asian girls don't like em

its not about having light hair.

you literally posted super tanned guys. and yes being tanned hurts them A LOT.

you are massively underestimating skin colour


brother there is a reason every east asian girl edits her photos to be PAPER white PALE white GHOST white

because its EXTREMELY important. like the no.1 thing.


im just 10 years ahead of everyone here in this type of knowledge so idk why i even bother explaining cos youll never understand

The difference is smaller than you might think. Sure K-Pop and K-dramas have more normie appeal than anime and video games, but not by much.

I think a lot of J-appeal is funneled towards other Asian countries, whereas K-appeal is focused on a global audience including the West.

in real life nobody looks like in filters and girls wont measure your skin colour
excluding extremes, most girls will consider europeans as white, not as brown (unless they are heavily tanned)

most of the examples you are showing arent even that brown and would be considered white pretty much anywhere in the world, including most asian girls
just slightly tan, makeup or even the lightning

yeah but we're talking about handsome celebrities. theres no white guys for ethnic girls to worship, cos they all tan so hard.

Japan has more soft power in general, but never heard of any friend that wants to date japanese, even if they are into anime, japanese culture, food....
many times its a bit of the opposite effect, they end up seeing japanese as creeps and weird guys

while the ones that watch korean media is the opposite, all of them want to date a korean chad

It may not be the topic of the thread but having light-colored hair and light-colored eyes are extremely beneficial in Asia the same way light skin is.

A minor tan is definitely not going to "hurt them a lot". To people in these countries it's still a very light skin tone.

both of those statements are wrong, but cba to to discuss it anymore.

enjoy going to asia with ur tanned skin thinking it wont massively negatively affect ur results

I have paper-white skin that gets a little darker in the summer and I haven't personally noticed any difference in how I'm perceived nor have any of the people I've met. I'm more worried about turning pink.

It may be more important for Asian guys to keep their skin light.
 
yeah but we're talking about handsome celebrities. theres no white guys for ethnic girls to worship, cos they all tan so hard.
yeah but i dont think asian girls see them as brown and you as light, as clear as you think it is

there's no white guy tan vs white guy paper skin celebrities

they see many of them the same, especially cause when it comes to white celebrities, for asian girls there's a lot more than just skin tone, it's just one aspect of many
beard, style, hair, facial features, culture... we are so different from them, they have to like your for many other reasons than a slightly lighter skin tone

i have seen so many guys, white as the snow that dont have do well in korea because they dress terribly and have no sense of style, slightly overweight, average height

coping. skin colour is no.1 most important thing

yeah but i dont think asian girls see them as brown and you as light, as clear as you think it is
it is like that, you just dont see it because you dont understand it like i do due to lower iq and possibly autism

yeah ok go fire up 2 dating profiles

a white guy like the ones you say that are brown/tan, tall, fit, beard and with a good style
vs a white guy that has the whitest possible skin but being slightly overweight, bad fashion, shaved and average height

the 1st profile is gonna have much better results, because skin colour is only one aspect
they want you to be white yes, that matters a lot, they dont like indian brown but its kinda ridiculous to think you need to be white as the snow vs other aspects of what they see in a foreigner
 
Well regardless of whether it matters that much, the applicable looksmaxxing point is to stay out of the sun and use sunscreen. We can agree that it's unwise to follow the Western tanning trend.

is there anything else you can do besides not tanning and using filters?
unless you want to go the makeup route i guess?

Makeup is an underrated form of looksmaxxing that unfortunately gets looked down on in the West for being feminine, or something like that.

I probably wouldn't ever powder my face to make my skin lighter even if I needed to, though in Japan, models/hosts/celebrities and even random nightlife workers like bartenders often do it.

Everyone can benefit from using foundation or concealer to cover scars, acne, discoloration.

lol whats happening, you've spent your entire post history trying to claim that Koreans have pajeet tier smv and now they are high smv? time are changing

k slop has been a saving grace for gooks but to be honest I feel like it only benefits the certain "look".

It's insane tbh ever since I started vampiremaxxing. I look at the sheer number of people around me looksminning their skin with sun exposure and I look back in disbelief at how I used to think being tan even looked good. Paper white looks regal

I definitely wouldnt say this, Gen Z guys openly like anime and alot of women are into it too. In terms of the K drama stuff I think the youngest cohort of white girls who are online like it but turbo normie stacies probably dont

I dont think I have ever seen a korean irl that actually looks like that lol. Maybe in Korea but all the ones near me are taller than other asians but still have the glasses dorky look to them of just look like regular changs not super feminine kpop maxxed

It's funny, I've actually thought of this, the male beauty standard in Japan can basically be summed up as "vampire" in many ways

Yeah I've only ever been at a long layover @ ICN and they almost all had the classic glasses+bowl cut, lol. But I'm sure at club areas and whatnot they start kpopmaxxing hard

pale is a failo in the west
 
yeah as someone with caspar ghost maxxed skin I have been sent my own way to Asia in hopes of women finding my skin attractive
The people who haven't geomaxed may not understand how openly asian girls will lookspill you unprompted on how important white skin is (+ blue eyes). It's not a meme at all; in China basically the majority of people walk around with umbrellas in the summer. They're obsessed and I think being there for just a few weeks permanently altered my brain structure to despise the sun

yeah I experienced it in thailand a bit lol. I used to think jbw was a little bit of a cope and exaggerated by Rehab Room before going there. I maybe a manlet but I thank god I was born with white skin and blue eye lol

Same in Japan. When asked the girls will say "oh I don't want to get skin cancer, oh the sun will damage my eyes" LOL yeah right


Literally every host looks like this, and women pay good money to see the hosts. Reality is stranger than fiction
