TLDR; Masculine faces appeal most to women in countries where disease is rife. Which means that prettyboi copers and kpop maxxers in third world countries are FUCKED. Same goes for masculine copers in first world countries.
This explains the k-pop phenomenon too.
Simple explanation of this theory: women basically prefer stronger genes in the reigon where the healthcare system is shit.

Participants were presented with 20 pairs of male faces, each pair consisting of a masculinized and feminized version of the same individual. The order of pairs and the side of the screen on which a given image was shown were both randomized across participants. Participants were instructed to choose which face they thought was more attractive for each pair.
average masculinity preference was negatively correlated with the NHI (r = −0.619, n = 30, p < 0.001, electronic supplementary material, figure S2), demonstrating that average masculinity preference increased as national health decreased.
We found that cross-cultural variation in women's average masculinity preference was predicted by a NHI derived from eight World Health Organization statistics for mortality rates, life expectancies and the impact of communicable disease
