I personally have a hard time with the ex p lady K culture of needing to be famous and popular.

I had a Chinese neighbor next door in his 90’s. On a very slippery, icy morning I was trying to drag out the trash can out unsuccessfully and he offered to do it for me! Of course I would not let him. He was a very quiet, not ‘famous’ or ‘popular’ type of person who spoke almost no English. He would not have gotten many ‘likes’ on his posts.
Not to disappoint but reputation and forums seriously predates Facebook. And yes, EVERYTHING Facebook does is to make money off people.
