Artificial Perfection

so like, I was watching this mv, and its great that shinee is performing outdoors, but it kinda leaves a bad taste in my mouth. It's apparent that theyre well dressed and their hair and face are freshly done. They're clean, hot, cute, blah. It also looks artificial in the light. Their faces are whiter than normal. They look like machines that havent seen sunlight in ages. It leads me to think their lives really are that hectic. They really are that stressed out. They barely even look healthy.

I'm kinda the same way. I overdid my schedule and planned wayy too much than I could possibly do. As a result, I'd always be indoors working on this or that. I'd never be in the sunlight. Then, I started into a bad cycle. I was so tired after school that I'd take a nap first, then do all my work in the middle of the night. I didn't feel like i lacked sun, cuz I was always in the light of lightbulbs. I was though. After a few months, I felt weak. When I finally looked at myself in the mirror, I saw a pale face, with huge bags under the eyes, and mussy hair. That feeling was horrible. I thought I could fake a good exterior, but I was obviously dying inside.

Shinee looks the same way. I hate for them to be like that. They need to rest. It hurts me to see them that way. They probably didn't even bring it on themselves. It's not their decision. My tiredness was my decision, and I stopped doing that, planning time for breaks. They should do the same. I mean, I know that it's their dream to be famous singers and all, but like, they are killing their bodies. Their perfection as idols is almost fake. It's so saddening that our society has become so fake and gilded. It hurts.
