"Unnecessarily dragging Indians when it is Indonesians v/s South Korean. And this coming from a SK is laughable. SK is d plastic surgery capital of the world ur beauty standards are plastic surgery nothing natural just fake. And u dont even have double eyelids. @deqirol No one wants thick masculine Indian-style double eyelids like you. East Asians prefer thin double eyelids in the east Asian style. Also know your noses are very low flat and ugly which is why your people get so much nose plastic surgery and skin color surgery 😭 @deqirol No one wants thick masculine Indian-style double eyelids"
