Best Answer

East Asians, including Koreans came from the lineage of Caucasians; they inherited straight hair and fair skin from them. They're not trying to be 'white'... a lot of them are 'white' as they inherited fair skin from Caucasians.

Also, i'm a Korean myself ansd the answer is really simple: Koreans just simply prefer and strongly think that 'white skin' is really nice-looking and much prettier than dark skin, while white people in Europe and the United States prefer tanned skin.

Why are Filipinos so obsessed with being white?

If you have white skin in the Philippines, you will be considered as attractive. Unfair, I know, but this type of thinking goes way back. During the Spanish era, Filipinos were being put down for their skin color, and generally, it affected the way of thinking right now. Also, it's typical, because atleast 3/4 of the country's population is brown-skinned, and everyone wants to have what they can't have. Why do you think white people are obsessed with spray tans? Kind of like that.
