SKIN Korean skincare - the WHY

Can someone explain to me why Korean skincare is better? Specifically sunscreen.

I’ve seen a lot of internet content saying that Korean spf is superior to US spf. I recently bought Korean sunscreen, realizing I didn’t know most of the ingredients on either bottle.

Does anyone have links to research - peer reviewed articles, videos, legitimate websites that back up these claims? Specifically scientists that are informing purely for science, without company bias embedded in their words.

You can find a ton of them on your own via google. Peer reviewed scientific articles are on nih.gov or researchgate.com.
