    South Korea might have more surgeons per capita, but it’s a small country. There are around 7500 cosmetic surgeons in the US and only around 2500 in South Korea. And again, you’re probably going to have a higher chance of being wealthy doing finance or working for one of the chaebols. Fellowships for something like cosmetic surgery are extremely competitive.
