When I was in Japan with my father on a business trip one of the Japanese business associates there gave me a sumo wrestling shirt that he insisted I wear at this fish market we went to. I was 6’5 and 320lbs at the time, I literally had people coming up to me to take photos and talk to me. It was actually one of the coolest experiences ever. The guy who gave me the shirt knew exactly what he was doing and was laughing his ass off.
I'm a Korean woman in her 20s. My height is about 163cm, and when I weighed 60kg, there were literally no clothes that fit me. The only clothes that fit me were the ones in 'international sizes', in Zara/H&M/etc. Most of the clothes in Korea are in either s/m or so called 'free size', but the free sized ones barely fit me when I was about 55kg. In uni I was 55kg and was called chubby - people here don't even say this behind my back, they just spit it out right in my face lol - and after being anorexic for a semester I was 49kg. Only then did the 'free sized' clothes comfortably fit me. As Josh portrayed, fat shaming others in their faces sure is a horrible habit of our country, but the clothing industry also contributes a lot to 'compulsory downsizing' of people, especially women. There simply is nothing to wear if you are slightly 'chubby' by Korean standards. In my opinion our openly fat-shaming culture and ridiculous one-size-fits-all clothing industry work hand in hand to diffuse body dysmorphia throughout the society. Although our country has the second lowest obesity rate among OECD countries, most people consider themselves fat because others openly call them so. Embracing body positivity and letting it permeate the clothing industry thus forcing it to change is crucial in our country.
60kg is a good weight for someone your height, it's not even fat, it's a normal and healthy weight, sounds like everyone in Korea wants to be a walking skeleton and if they see someone who isn't anorexic they call them fat
You're a strong person I feel. I'm sorry you had to go through that, it sounds horrible. Having basically only 2 different sizes sounds insane to me. I hope Korea will relax a little with that stuff soon bc the "one weight fits all" bs is definitely not normal or healthy. Everyone is different but we definitely shouldn't go completely overboard either at any side. I hope you're feeling good & have a great day or night.
damn in my country people get skinny shamed so much. it is much more ok here to tell someone they are thin and stickfigure and skeleton and not good looking than telling a fat person mean names. i was skinny but always in the healthy bmi range. it sucks i had to get overweight and in pain before my mother would call be pretty and "healthy looking". but im sad for you issues too in your country it seems so hard. ive seen kpop girls be bullied so hard for a body that would be percieved just normal here
@@uniensemble316 no worries fam. I'm glad to hear it❤️ Thank you😊 Fr your comment was interesting & pointing out the fashion industry's part in this too👌 I know the struggle as well. :')
Josh did a good job portraying the downsides of both the cultures. Both of the cultures trivialize the actual importance of a healthy weight, which is to have a properly functioning body. One culture puts one's weight on the pedestal because they perceive weight as a medium to fit into society and gain social approval, and one culture on the other hand glorifies one being proud of having an unhealthy body weight, also for social and societal approval. Both excessively superficial in their own ways and depict the facade of body image and its commercial marketing. Even though people see him just as a funny guy, this guy is intellectually gifted as to humor or comic writing. Good job Josh 👏
@@zb1planet I don't think both are equally bad...both are bad, but the former is worse. At least the Korea one is meant to be about improving yourself...which can be misguided if your goals are not set in a proper way... but the "will do to so" can always be redirected at something better with good advice.... the American one is pretty much just giving up and saying you are perfect just the way you are...which is pure bs.
My sister was once greeted by a newly arrived Indian colleague with "oh, you've gained weight!" She explained that in the UK that was not a compliment. The Indian colleague was so embarrassed when they realised they'd just insulted my sister. I, on the other hand, thought it was hilarious. Because I'm such a supportive sibling.
No joke the girl from my school had anorexia and ate one apple a day. You could tell her brain was working a 30% compared to her past self. It felt like she was dying.. She's recovered now and is living a healthy life.
I'm so glad to hear she recovered. Anorexia kills people. We talk about it a fair bit in society passively, but it's truly a dangerous disease that erodes the mind and body. Obesity does the same, just on the other side of the coin. Only difference is that it works slower. An apple a day doesn't give you all the nutrients you need at all.
Feel that. When I starve myself I can’t do anything,I feel so dumb. The other day I was out to get something,while outside I was pinching myself the whole time because I couldn’t tell if it was real or not.
I prefer brutal honesty over fake bull shit and people just saying it behind your back. I grew up experiencing both and I felt a lot less crazy having a family out right tell me something versus them whispering about it while lying to my face. 🙃
It's not honesty they just nosy lol. Their comment is not honest, it's highly exxagerated. Gaining 1 kg is not getting fat and losing 1 kg doesnt mean u like a stick n gon die of malnourishment.
Same but it sucks that it's either lying to their face or getting brutally honest comments that are borderline insults, like there's no middle ground at all. You can tell someone they gained/lost weight at a unhealthy amount without telling them they're "a fatty" or "a skeleton". It's that simple to just voice your concerns directly and give them support and solicit advice. That's what a lot of people need to get. 😅
Honestly both hurt, but I’d prefer brutal honesty too. In high school I was literally 300lbs (at 5’9) and I’d say I’m fat and my so called friend would deadass say “no you’re not.”. Like bitch do I look like a stupid or delicate person to you? I’m literally morbidly obese, I know I’m fat. You denying it doesn’t make me feel better, it’s just insulting.
Asians are pretty direct in general regarding weight. Basically it's everyone's business to comment. When I lost a ton of weight, I received loads of comments from my relatives that I am getting too skinny. Then when I put on just 5kg, my great grandaunt literally squeezed my arms and said, "Aren't you getting too fat?" I was 50kg (158cm) 😂
That's so toxic. If people care more about how thin you are instead of your well-being, it will have a lasting negative impact. I weighed more than that when I was about to be admitted to hospital for an eating disorder.
@@a.s.1737 I guess it depends on how people view. Like if some of my relatives comment on my weight then I don't think to much cuz in asia it's like a common thing. If you met your relatives after a long time they will be like "woo you got so skinny you should eat more! " Or " you are getting fat, maintain ur weight or you'll get diabetes " And honestly this comments are so common it doesn't really effect to many person. But obviously there are some people who makes actual nasty comment abt weight. So I guess outside of asia people might find ts toxic but honestly it depends on person how they are saying it. When our relatives say it, they dont tell us to become too skinny or too fat. They tell us to get healthy body.
@@whatever5695 Just because it's common doesn't mean it's okay. Abuse towards children is common worldwide. Violence against women is common worldwide. Should we accept these things because they have become normalized? Toxic cultural attitudes towards body weight and physical appearance are detrimental to one's well-being. Southeast Asians are especially vulnerable as mental illness is stigmatized in many communities, which makes it difficult to talk about or seek treatment. One's body weight or how they look to the naked eye are not accurate representations of overall physical and mental health. These are simply ways to discriminate against others under the guise of caring about them.
@@whatever5695 this is true. my relatives make comment about my weight all the time that it becomes nothing to me now. it's more like a conversation starter now, just something to get the talks going
@@a.s.1737 Yeah u r right. Many people here doesn't take seriously abt weight cmnt but some people do. And like I said most of the time our relatives say it as their concerns and they are also ignorant to this type of prblm .
I think like this too, but some people can't handle criticism, even when they ask for it themselves. They ask you if they look good just to get praise, not because they actually want your opinion.

Bruh I fr thought that asians were exaggerating with how their aunties and uncles fat-shame them but then I encountered my mom‘s chinese colleague and he casually dropped midst conversation that „You‘ve grown quite a lot horizontally since last time I saw you“ with his thicc ass accent and innocet smile☠️ I thought it was more funny than anything but dayumn I take my words about exaggerating back
Nah bruh no exaggeration. When you walk into the house or room, they literally comment about how fat or thin you've become. But the thing is they don't realize it's toxic, they just don't get the idea behind it being toxic.
Omg. Same with Russians. In high school my chemistry teacher said that I’m getting fat when I weighted 54kg for a 164cm girl. Later I heard similar comment from a guy friend. My only thoughts were “but I never asked for your opinion to begin with” for me 52kg is like Ideal weight. I have some muscles, so 50kg feels too skinny. When you’re short each kg makes a difference in appearance
yoo, 165cm and 54kg! can relate, every time people find out my weight, they literally have to do a double take. like -"oh, i wegh 54! ^^" -*blink blink* -"what??". although a lot of it is muscle and i know it, sometimes i still worry about it
I am 180cm female, big chested with a larger frame, wide hips, and ex military muscles that can princess carry men = 82kg. So Koreans would see me as fat, built, or "OMG" ??
Koreans have that standard for their own kind, their own women. Petite smaller women are expected to have that, I'm 179 cm and don't weigh that. They'd be stepping out of bounds with foreigners
I'm a Bengali American and I've had a couple people who were like family or family friends who hadn't seen me in years immediately comment on my weight as soon as they saw me. Like, these were at least two separate occasions but they said almost the same thing. "You got really fat!". My mom looks at my belly randomly and sighs. She has also taken to wrapping her arms around my waist out of nowhere and clings to me but acts like it's difficult I guess??? And it's really uncomfortable because actually I don't like to hug my mom at all, and this is like a hug but feels like I'm simultenously being mocked. But because I'm in America I experience that weight culture as well (well I guess I'll never know what people say behind my back but whatever). So, my personal take on these two different approaches? They suck. For me, that is. Neither has put me on track and likely never will. I am simultaneously seeking therapy to help me with my weight, my poor self-esteem, and self-defeating behavior. And my boyfriend is also really supportive, he's my constant cheer leader and he is always searching for the best way to keep my morale up. Yet, I still have not been able to make any strides in losing weight. I know for a fact it's not due to lack of knowledge about diet, or how to burn calories. It's not that I don't know how to cook for myself, I'm a good home cook. It's not that I don't have the money to afford a better diet. Can't be a lack of time, I have lots of time. I'm not disabled so there's no reason I can't get my ass to move more either. As far as I can tell, I don't have any logistical obstacles, just mental ones. Which is the exact kind of obstacle people shit on the most in this discussion. People on the internet just call that being weak. It's a reflection of how I am inferior as a person, possibly I'm even morally corrupt. I just wish people would judge others less for what they choose as their preferred motivation or environment when dealing with weight. Have you ever heard those stories about people who have been a smoker all their life and then one day have a reason a change and then they quit cold turkey, no going back? I come across those anecdotes every so often. But I ALSO come across the story where people have to hit their lowest moment before they change. What I'm trying to say is that, when it comes to issues that are created by mental obstacles, there are just so many fucking ways for that to exist within us. There isn't a cookie-cutter solution to it all. What has worked for some people will not work for me. What will eventually work for me will not suit someone else. That's normal. That's part of everything. We don't all benefit from the same medication. Not all forms of cancer are treated the same way. A feel-good story about a girl who is special and talented might light a fire in your soul, but it might make me think that I'm better off dead instead of wasting space. I am begging the universe to be gentle to me right now.
I’m so sorry you have to experience this from your own mother of all people. It really sucks when the people closest to you feel like it’s their place to criticize your body. Every body is unique, and there really is no one formula or ideal size for every one. Empathy goes such a long way.
Hey, I know these are empty words from a stranger on the internet but I wish you all the best and hope that you find the ways that work for you to overcome your mental blocks! I hope you have a wonderful day and life, thank you for taking the time to share your experience
This probably won't do much but I personally started accepting my body when I started studying pre-medicine/medicine. You realize that only uneducated and illiterate people have so much to say on how much a person weighs and should weigh. When you start studying topics like nutrition, physiology and basically everything related to human body, you come to realize that every body has a purpose of it's existence. I would workout for at least 2 hours a day with intervals in between, would eat healthy and also walk my gsd but still couldn't see any change in appearance even after 2 years of consistency. I gave up but then I realized that although there was no change on the outside, I had certainly had a huge change on the inside. I could do hold a plank for 5 minutes instead of 30s. I could do a bridge and I could stretch and touch my palm on the floor (I couldn't do either before I started.) So I got more invested in this topic and did more research. Our bodies especially a woman's body experiences changes due to aging, lifestyle and hormonal changes. Your body is protecting your organs and giving you the required support to undergo labour (in case of women). It helps you during menstruation to help you take those cramps like a real champ. It's not entirely bad to think of your body as "flawed." But when you do point out those flaws, ask yourself: 1. What is the reason for this specific flaw? 2. Do I control it or completely eliminate it? 3. CAN I control or eliminate the flaw? You work accordingly and you'll know then that not every hate statement needs to be taken to the heart and some statements are just entirely ignorant and uneducated opinions. There are cases where women gain weight because of hormonal changes and aging whether it's because of menstruation, menopause, child birth etc. You cannot eliminate that. You can only 'control' it but to very little extent so no big expectations and your only expectation should be to be healthy. People gain weight because of thyroid disorders, mental disorders which also includes EDs etc so you work on treating that issue instead of worrying about your weight because again your only expectation should be to be healthy. People gain weight because of unhealthy lifestyle including not working out and not being educated on nutritional values. I can't do anything to make you enjoy working out and eating healthy. That's literally impossible. Only you can do it. Find your kind of workouts. Workout doesn't always have to consist of crunches and pushups. You could literally dance dance dance with your hands hands hands or just walk or even just some loser ass bed workouts including leg lifts and idk maybe bicycles because it's all about getting your body to move. Little by little. Personally speaking, I don't healthy at all. I just can't get myself to do that and as a med student, I don't have time to prepare myself good food so I make up for it by working out, I don't have time for that even but walking my dog is enough. I do short cardios on the weekend but some people do the opposite like if they don't like working out, they'll just eat healthy instead. So you find your pace. Just know that your weight isn't harming anyone! If people can accept smokers who are literally portrayed as "cool and aesthetic" in movies and TV shows even though we all know passive smoking is far more dangerous than active smoking, then these people have no right to comment on someone's weight but if they still feel the need to then who are we to stop them? After all free speech. But you can feel better about yourself knowing you're not hypocritical, you're educating yourself, you're trying to live a healthy life, you're going physically and mentally stronger AND you're minding your own business! You don't have to beg the universe to be gentle to you. You'll have to be gentle to yourself! You'll have to accept that you do not owe people an aesthetic look
Well, as you said, what workes for you does not need to work for someone else, neither does my stuff need to work for you, but maybe it will, even though I am a man and you are a woman but that does not need to mean anything necessarily, so I give it a shot: Run. At first 3 times a week. Start with like 500m to 1KM?...and end up about 10-14km mark. And then add in muscle training and flexibility training in order to boost your progress.... Never give up. Stay consistent. During the times that you feel like not working out...during those times you will especially get your ass up and work out, cause what awaits you in the end is not just the apperiance(which needs to become a side goal to you, not your main goal), but speed, endurance, flexibility and power! Aim to be stronger and stronger in whatever you do, if there is a 10KM run in your town or area, then train for it, aim for the top spot, make that your goal, enjoy the healthy competition with those others that all aim for the same: the number 1, the first place, the undisputed VICTORY! And regardless of that, awaken your curiosity towards your own body, so for yourself how far you can go, how strong you can get, what is the apex of your body's abilities, that should motivate you, cause all of that is power and motivation from within yourself, its an endless loop that gets only greater the more time passes by....what other people think, say, believe, you give a crap, cause you are not doing it for them, you are not doing it to be liked, you are doing it for yourself, your bloodline, your abilities, your power, your victories and your health. Thats how it is for me, but I hope that it can help you as well.
@@photographychannel3875 I understand conceptually that me working my body out would mean I would likely lose weight and definitely gain power. As I said, it's a mental thing that compels me to eat more, and definitely a deep deep DEEP dislike for working out that I trying to figure out how to change. I literally cried the last time I worked out. Which is why prescribing me to work out more is pointless. I'm not at the stage of figuring out how to work out. I'm trying to figure out how to even begin to make myself make the right choices for my body. I don't think that is a stage that everyone can actually relate to experiencing.
I was hanging out with a group of Japanese students who were here (NZ) for a conference. They were real friendly, we were having a good time, when suddenly one of them poked my belly and they all commented on how fat I was. I knew that asians countries had that cultural difference so I didn't mind that much, but it was definitely odd to suddenly turn from what I'd normally interpret as nice to bullying and back.
I’m a “gentle giant” fatty who’s naturally pretty strong for someone who does zero weight lifting. It kind of amuses me when petite people roast fat people to our faces. Like, don’t you know what happens to people who pick fights with hippos? A lot of us fat people simply wake up and *don’t* choose violence.
You are most likely only strong due to having more muscle mass alongside increased fat, which is normal. That doesnt make you relatively strong for your weight class. Being petite isnt good either… Either case. Whether youre normal, skinny, fat or whatever. I will roast everyone equally
Its okay if you're a bit fat, but if you're too fat (25% body fat or above) i'd recommend losing some weight. Its kinda cringe that skinny people roast fat people, because being skinny is almost equally as dangerous as being fat. Weight lifting is fun though, you should give it a try! try going with a friend or something though :)
Honestly... 45.5 kg was my goal. I got there, I'm now 46 and I'm really proud of myself because before, I was 41-43 and nothing I could do was getting me where I needed to be. For context, I'm 5'1 and 45.5 kg is the weight I needed to get to in order to be Not Underweight.
bruh im 5'1" too. and im currently 54. And im told that i dont need to lose more weight just build muscle mass. I was 52 when i was a teen and then everyone said i was normal. noone even called me chubby. I think 43kg-52.5 kg is normal. But if you are very active, you might have muscle mass and weigh more. Like female atheletes weigh 45.5kg to 55.5 kg at the same height of 5'1". So dont solely depend on your weight of BMI. because you can be 42 kgs and have a high fat % and less muscle % which is VERY unhealthy.
I should siriously try more to lose weight. I would like to be 30-40kg but atm it's really far fetched to even think about. My current goal is 68kg, then 60, then 52 and then finally 40kg. For context I'm 5'6, female and weigh 72 kilos.
@@holger_p i wouldn't say be supportive if you really be fake about it (e.g. your opinion on someone's outfit. but even so you should tell them honestly but in a nicer way). but for things like fat shaming, we're kind of trained from a young image to see having bigger bodies as a bad thing; in cases like these we should try to change our judgement and accept it as beautiful too.
@@phenomcnon7864 Comforting somebody like "everything will be OK" is always a lie, a fake, if you have an scientific approach. But people need this emotional support sometimes. I't shouldn't be permanent. Somebody might be an idiot, but permanently telling him this, is bullying. So you choose words like "you do the best you can do". Pinpointing facts, telling the rude truth, should only be done, when you think it's new to the person,. In matter of beeing fat, we should be sure the person does already know. Mentioning not necessary. Helpful would be invitation for a hike, or "let's cook something together". Help to change lifestyle.
Was trying to figure out which culture is worse because in these scenarios they both seemed equally horrible ☠️ Upon consideration tho, I’d choose to stay in America because I’m 172 cm, so in order to fit the female kg weight limit I’d need to be clinically underweight…..😆 I’d rather be 65kg so gonna stick with the men’s range
I agree - I would be over 15 kg underweight! But they don't have many tall women in Korea. Chances are they shake their head and say - it's too bad you are taller than so many of the men.
Are those weight categories for real or just made up in this video, like 67kg max for men? I'm ridiculously thin here in the West (26 inch waist) and I'm just about 67k last time I checked (which was at kickboxing training with my sweaty gym clothes on as I don't own a scales at home, but still)
Lol this was me. I'm like 172-173 cm and weigh like 65 kg. But I got this~ I'll just dress extra gender neutral if I go to a very conservative part of asia 😂. Joking, anyway my body tends to look on the leaner side so I genuinely wonder if they would see me as overweight. Either way I wouldn't care I'll just be like ahuh good for you worrying about someone else's weight. Are you underweight and suffering yourself yet? Doesn't seem like a healthy path, your eyes are as dead as a skeleton's ^_^. They say eyes are the window to the soul ya know?
It's kinda the opposite in my Mexican culture. Although being curvy is a recent beauty trend in the US, it's always been a standard in my culture. So you can imagine all the skinny jokes thrown my way even though I'm at a healthy weight.
Body shaming is so toxic period. Even if someone is at an unhealthy weight and needs help in gaining or losing and medically isn't doing well, how the F is shaming someone supposed to help? It just makes them feel bad, especially if they are in fact healthy and energetic at the weight they're at. If someone is under/over (medically, not a societal standard), they likely are struggling with something. How is that worth making fun of or shaming? We don't shame people for having cancer or breaking their leg. It doesn't make sense. We do shame people for having mental issues though and I think that's because society thinks anything mental and weight wise is a choice. It's not, anymore than having cancer or getting a broken limb would be.
Koreans are very blunt about weight, it’s not always a good thing since the expectations that are put could not match everybody’s body type even though your heathy but if you don’t “look” slim then your still considered fat. But Americans also have clear obesity problems, I think they really need to start taking it more seriously..
America doesn’t have an obesity problem lmao. Eating disorders are running rampant among young girls including “obese” people. Once yall start seeing peoples bodies as a “problem” that needs to be solved you’ll get nothing but an influx of eating disorders. That is a very dangerous way to view weight especially since no one ever sees it the same way when it is reversed.

As a Chinese born in Southeast Asia, I don't think it's _as_ bad as the 3 (Korea, Japan, China) when it comes to body weights. I made friends with a bunch of Chinese friends from mainland China and through different fandoms, I've just heard consistent goals of 110斤 (55kg/121lbs)... Like, I'm 25 and 60kg/132lbs. I wasn't self-conscious about it until they kept talking about it.
Yeah, I’ve noticed that with SE Asia there isn’t the set weight / feature beauty standards that you see in East Asia. It might have to do with the ethnic diversity found there that you don’t see in East Asia, so beauty standards can’t be as universal.
I feel S.Korea is just the outlier because of how focused their society is on outward image: from your weight, to your height and skin complexion, to your fashion. I mean, they had this trend once of measuring skull size to determine success or beauty or idk
if youre an average height then the reason you didn't feel self conscious is bc 60 is a perfectly reasonable weight. id try to avoid that kind of online height, the place you live in is in the right for finding normal weights to be beautiful, so why trouble yourself with smbd elses standards?
Thank you for making this video, actually 'this kind of issue' is trending on twitter (accidentally saw it), but actually i dont mind the 'korean jokes' 🤡 i wont take it personally (even the strangers, friends or family said that to me) , maybe im just laughing my a** off, but keep doing healthy basis and gonna say 'thank you for reminding me to eat veggies and do exercises'
Let me clear things up: Both of them are bad. It's just that the American one was slightly worse as it's coming from a person who you believe could do no wrong towards you, someone that you trust to be there for you. At least with the Korean one, you know that the parents are harsh so you'd expect something like that from them and the betrayal would be less painful. To be honest, the misunderstanding was my fault, I probably phrased my comment very badly. Both of them are equally as bad. It's just that the Korean one was the bad that was slightly less painful to face. Now, I won't try to solve every misunderstanding here as I know that not everyone will agree and that's fine. If you still disagree with me, it's ok, it's just your opinion.
In India a little chubby is considered the gold beauty standard. I always felt so bad for being too skinny. My goal is 53 kgs (I'm 5'2) . Whenever I'm 53kgs I feel great, I lose a little and ppl say I look sick. Also I have "bone weight" so ppl who look chubbier than me often weigh lesser than me.. Just realizing it's unhealthy to maintain weight by looks and now concentrating on just eating well :)

I think instead telling people fat or skinny they can use some medical term like underweight or overweight and can mention what are the risk and understanding that if he or she is even interested for gaining or loosing weight. Body Shaming especially at young age can loose someone's self confidence and self esteem which can drag in their life for a long time.
