    In Japan they mostly use white models for their magazine cover and everything
    in Hong Kong and in South Korea, but Koreans don’t usually use white models

    Because they are generally too short for modeling.

    Because they don’t represent “America”. What I mean is that when people think about America it is normally white people that they think of, next comes black people and then “others”. High fashion doesn’t represent but white people. I was watching a documentary where there was a black model and the guy said that they are looking for a white girl (meaning white features) that are covered in chocolate. And there are so many stereotypes about Asians.The men are short, either computer geek or kung fu master. They are unattractive (which is untrue) and they are lacking in genital department. Because they are perceived as being unattractive, people don’t want them modeling their clothes.
