Why is being extremely slim so emphasized in South Korean beauty culture?

I can’t imagine myself with a slim, petite build—what if my breasts were tiny? Oh my God, that would be absolutely terrible! When I was 16, I had a very small frame (a size zero), but I’ve gained weight since then—and I have no regrets about it at all. I wish I could go to Korea for a day and walk down the streets showing off my breasts; yes, that’s my dream. But what if they ostracize me just because I’m overweight? Actually, I think I might be making that up entirely; it’s not really likely to happen—but what if it does?
