Summary THE PEOPLE'S POPE?All eyes have been on the Vatican for the election of the new Pope, but where has Pope Francis come from and what can the world expect from him? On Tuesday's Dateline, Aaron Lewis gets an insider's view of the new Holy Father by speaking to colleagues, family and friends in Argentina. Aaron also joins worshippers in the Buenos Aires churches where he was formerly Archbishop to shed more light on the 76-year-old behind the robes. As Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, he eschewed the luxurious trappings due to him as archbishop... taking the bus to work, cooking his own meals and reaching out to the city's poor. And the contrasts with his Papal predecessors are many... the first Latin American, the first from the Jesuit order of Catholicism and he's already turning to Italian rather than the traditional Latin. But with so many controversial issues now on his shoulders, where do the people who know him best think he will take the Catholic Church?THE K-POP EFFECTIn South Korea, the global phenomenon of K-Pop is literally reshaping the country's youth.The country has the highest rate of cosmetic procedures undertaken globally, with South Koreans going under the knife more frequently than anywhere else in the world. Surgical treatments designed to 'westernise' facial features, such as nose and chin reshaping and the most popular treatment of eyelid surgery - where skin from the upper eyelid is removed to make eyes rounder - have become more common. Increasingly, it's young people undergoing procedures as they try and look more like the pretty K-Pop stars they idolise, many of whom have had work done themselves because of the pressure to look a certain way. In her first report for Dateline, Jeanette Francis meets young women and teenagers who have had plastic surgery, and others who are preparing for procedures, and considers if the K-Pop phenomenon is creating a generation of beauty-obsessed Koreans.WITCH HUNTIt sounds like something from the distant past, but witch hunts are alive and well in parts of India. Tuesday's Dateline gets inside the communities of West Bengal, where violent justice is being meted out to people accused of casting spells and curses on their villages. Innocent families describe being attacked because the tribal traditions of superstition are so strong. Some alleged witches have even been murdered. Dateline also follows a group of activists trying to reason with them and reunite the communities, but can they win against the power of witchcraft? Dateline is hosted by award-winning journalist Anjali Rao. Join the conversation each week on Twitter #DatelineSBS
