I moved to Korea and every year June, July and August I'm incapable to be outside because of the humidity. On the way to the convenience shop my underwear is already sweaty.

So I stay either in the office or at home running the AC all the time which doesn't help with fighting the climate change.

Now that it's the 21 century, you can identify as a different race. This gives immediate respite.

Seriously though. Just enjoy it. You're not going to be the only one in that situation and no-one is that interested in you, they're more worried about their own issues. Over time you'll find ways to adjust your clothing as your body itself adjusts to the environment.

My skin turns to pizza in heat and I hate it but I can either be miserable and hide or enjoy my opportunity. Eventually my skin calmed down and I found that I made sure I drank much more and changed my diet a little.
