Popular means that is chosen by large group of people who live at the same age in the same region as a preference. However, sometimes, it trancend the limits of time and region like Shakespeare's works. Now, I can be aware of how pop culture influences me. The culture, sorrounded me, makes my point of view. When I think of the meaning of beauty, several beautiful celebrities' face cross in my mind. Same thing happens to me, when I think of "successful life", dream house, huge swimming pool, luxurious car, etc. Therefore, I can say that my point of view was composed by pop culture.
When I was in Korea, I thought that be a friend with different aged person is almost impossible. Korean has many kind of words when people call others depend on age. It makes us hard to be closed with dirrerent aged people. Although I still feel uncomfortable when I saw that grandchildren call their grandparents' name freely, I am getting used to becoming friend without thinking age difference.
