whats the appeal for south korea

i like some of the new jeans songs but wtf do they know abt ghosts ? theres such a odd community on tiktok where they rp as korean and chinese ppl and its literally 100% girls pretending to be some sort of asian even tho theyre white , they even catfish as men but ik damn well a nga named "jayden yang" does not have the username "stardust4evaa" and only listens to kpop and only watches kdramas and ngas rlly think theyre so different for saying ts 😭 what even goes on in korean media for shit like this to happen why do ppl think theyre so special compared to like laos or timor leste . never in my life have i looked at a korean and said "wow i wnna be korean" like tf
