Hello!



Welcome to our blog: Ssangapul! So, you ask, who are we?
We are a group of Parsons students conducting a study for Laboratory class.


For our project, we are trying to create an awareness about a specific reality in our reality.
We are hoping to create an awareness about Ssangapul surgery in Korean society.
For those who don't know what Ssangapul surgery is, it is a form of plastic surgery.

Ssangapul: n. an upper eyelid with a crease (i.e. "double eyelid")

Ssangapul surgery, or Epicanthoplasty: a procedure in which the skin around the eye is removed and the eyelid reshaped. It is also known as a double-eyelid surgery because the purpose of the procedure is to create a crease on the upper eyelid.
(If it's still not unclear what a ssanggapul is, please refer to the picture above.)

Do you have a ssangapul (double eyelid)?

Did you have ssangapul surgery?

Are you thinking of getting it done?

Have you ever tried ssangapul tape?

If you had the surgery, would you tell people you had it?

Do you know anyone who has had the surgery?

What do you think about the surgery?

Would you mind if your future spouse has had the surgery?

Do you think that someone with a ssangapul is more beautiful than someone who doesn't?

Are you Korean?
