Just plain silly Asian navel-gazing

"Oh, my face is too big; I want to cut some of it off."

"I'm too tall. I wish I could chop my legs short."

"How is it all our ugliest girls go to Europe and they're suddenly popular?"

"I know you think Europeans have bigger cocks than {South Korean} men."

To counter these four quotes (my own translations) that stand out in this film (the first two from female characters, the latter pair from men), I'd like to pose a query of my own: why is it American flicks often feature actors in their late twenties playing high school kids, while Asian fare such as WOMAN ON THE BEACH focuses on people behaving (and sort of looking) like middle-schoolers pretending to be grown people with jobs???
