In this March 11, 2014 photo, Harisu, South Korea’s most famous transsexual entertainer, poses for a photo during an interview in Seoul, South Korea. Harisu, Dr. Kim Seok-Kwun's best known patient, said in an interview that the pain she felt after her 1995 male-to-female surgery “was like a hammer hitting your genitals.” But days later, when she left the hospital, she felt reborn, comparing her transformation to the Disney film “The Little Mermaid,” where a mermaid gives up her fish tail in exchange for human legs and eventual happiness. Kim is a pioneer in slowly changing views on sexuality and gender in South Korea, where many have long considered even discussions of sexuality a taboo. (AP Photo/Ahn Young-joon)
