TikTok has become a significant part of popular culture in the Philippines, influencing a large portion of the population. Beyond providing entertainment, it also affects people in both positive and negative ways. Many individuals tend to imitate what they see on TikTok, adopting similar behaviors, speech patterns, and hobbies. As users create and share content, they inspire others to follow suit. However, this can lead to social pressure, causing some individuals to experience identity confusion and unknowingly alter their sense of self.

Media consumption has increased more than ever due to technological advancements and the expanding possibilities within digital platforms. According to the Agenda Setting Theory, media plays a key role in shaping people's expectations, encouraging them to present an idealized version of themselves and strive for a seemingly "perfect" life. This has made individuals more conscious of their lifestyle choices, including their diet, fashion, hobbies, and careers. As a result, people are now more susceptible to external influences rather than relying on their original ways of thinking. Over time, these expectations have become societal norms, influencing how people perceive themselves and others in public.
