"Asian males had never been portrayed as having a sexy appeal on U.S. TV or cinema screens." I really love how @JeeLee06767883 choose "seismograph" to illustrate the socio-cultural shift

When Jungkook selected as “Sexiest International Man” by @people I discuss with my friend on Asian-pivot in beauty standards. As journalists, we used to cover Western male artists and raised with that image on media. THIS "hierarchies of attraction" #BTSLecture_KMOOC
The "hierarchies of attraction" reminds me of the Sociology course "Catch the Korean Wave" by Dr. Sam Richards at The Pennsylvania State University. He discussed @BTS_twt as the future of masculinity all over the world

In Indonesia, toxic masculinity men mock BTS as "plastic men". I found fascinating insights from Plastic Surgeon Anthony Youn, MD that Asian men and women have not been considered as "sex symbols" for decades. #BTSLecture_KMOOC
Dr. Youn discussed the most popular eye crease surgery in South Korea was introduce by a US surgeon. Dr. Youn also highlights for people to accept that looking Asian is beautiful like JHope, not necessarily Asian look beautiful just because of plastic surgery. #BTSLecture_KMOOC
On performance, Jimin shows gender-bending attractiveness in terms of style. Jimin redefines the "hierarchies of attraction" which the sexy look mentioned as the "Jimin Effect" which interests men and women, also the LGBTQ+ community. #BTSLecture_KMOOC
"We can say that the power of this dominant culture is held by Caucasians, North Americans, and the English language." @JeeLee06767883 bold statement on @BTS_twt challenging the power structure in the music industry, charts to visual. #BTSLecture_KMOOC http://www.kmooc.kr/courses/course-v1:SejonguniversityK+SJKMOOC17k+2020_05SJ17/course/

Interesting thread on Southeast Asian culture attraction to androgynous men, like Kpop idol. This reminds me of Sulawesi's La Galigo, Bissu the half god is non-binary who connects the underworld and the sky
