Plastic Surgery Meter: Yonghwa, CNBLUE

Yonghwa has been on our list for a long time, and I have been putting him off quite simply because I didn’t know that much about CNBLUE (I like to at least have some idea of what I’m talking about, believe it or not). But now that I’ve watched a few videos and read a few blogs, we’re ready to start! As usual, we look at the nose and eyes first. You can see that in Yonghwa’s pre-debut pics, his nose looks slightly different. I don’t know if it looks different enough to be certain of a nose job, but it

Facial reshaping

Plastic Surgery Meter: Ailee

Well, I had to see a lot more of Ailee than I wanted while I was browsing her pre-debut pics (those who know about her pic scandal will know what I am talking about). The first thing you’ll notice when comparing Ailee’s pre-debut and recent photos is that she looks whiter. At least, that’s the first thing I noticed. Skin-whitening is nothing new in Korea and it doesn’t count as surgery, so we’ll move on. As far as facial features go, her nose and chin look different. She previously had a small nose with a flat tip and now she

Plastic Surgery Meter: Siwon, Super Junior

I guess it’ll be another boring post today as we cover another natural beauty, Super Junior’s Siwon. There’s quite a bit of plastic surgery within Super Junior, so the fact that their visual has managed to escape it is quite a feat. Siwon is truly an exceptionally good-looking guy, and he has always, ALWAYS been this way. Like, I would resent the guy for his beauty if he wasn’t so… beautiful. Damn you, Choi Siwon!

Plastic Surgery Meter: Doojoon, BEAST (B2ST)

We’ve been seeing a lot of natural beauties on this site recently, so get ready because here comes another! Yes, Doojoon of BEAST appears to be plastic surgery-free. Honestly, it’s kind of boring when people look the same as their pre-debut pics, it gives us nothing to talk about. But for your entertainment, check out Doojoon’s pre-debut JYP audition. Pre-debut videos are always pretty interesting!

Eye work

Plastic Surgery Meter: L, INFINITE

Compared to many groups, INFINITE seem to be relatively free of plastic surgery. Today we look at the group’s visual, L (Myungsoo), who raises suspicion purely on account of being beautiful. To be fair, his pre-debut pics show that he has always been extremely good-looking. The only thing I wonder about are his eyes. When L was younger, he had uneven eyelids which were quite pronounced in some photos. These days his eyes look even in most pics, suggesting that he may have had some corrective surgery to fix the issue. When his eyes are shut you can see a clear line

Plastic Surgery Meter: Gongchan, B1A4

Gongchan of B1A4 has been on the request list for a while, and apparently, the reason his face raises suspicion is because of his uneven eyelids. To me, if anything, this seems like evidence of no plastic surgery. Surely if you were going to pay good money to “fix” your face, you would get them to make your eyes look even. Right? So this, coupled with the fact that his uneven eyelids were also a feature in childhood photos, makes me believe that Gongchan is plastic surgery-free. His nose also looks the same as in his pre-debut photos. Before and

SNSD - Girls Generation

Plastic Surgery Meter: Hyoyeon, Girls’ Generation (SNSD)

At this point, I don’t believe any of SNSD managed to escape the plastic surgeon’s knife. Everyone we’ve covered so far has had something done. Most of the time it’s just the usual nose job / eyelid combo, but other times it’s been more invasive stuff such as forehead implants. This brings us to Hyoyeon, who appears to have had work done on her nose and eyes, aka the KPOP Combo. Her nose bridge appeared out of nowhere and so did her double eyelids. I’m pretty sure that’s the extent of her plastic surgery though. As usual, we will update if anything further comes

Nose job

Plastic Surgery Meter: Heechul, Super Junior

Today, having totally given up on request list order (sorry), we look at Heechul of Super Junior. Heechul seems a pretty honest kind of guy, and indeed he’s already admitted to getting rhinoplasty to correct his broken nose. He doesn’t seem to have drastically altered the shape of his nose in the process, which is refreshing. Many people would use a procedure like that as an excuse to do a little “retouching”. Other than the nose job, Heechul also has very deep double eyelids, but this appears to be natural. I think he would be upfront if he had had any
