Rumors Regarding Plastic Surgery
Plastic surgery is a common practice in South Korea. It is embedded in their society as a quick way to achieve the physical attributes people desire. The most common of these procedures are eyelid and nose bridge surgery along with jaw shaving and fat grafting. These are a few of the procedures included in a wide variety of options, and supposedly, Jung Il-woo has become a part of this culture. The pictures above pioneered this plastic surgery rumor when they surfaced in early 2012. They are pictures from Jung Il-woo’s yearbook taken in middle school and high school, and there are slight differences from how he looks now. In the first two pictures, it seems that his eyes were smaller and more slanted while his nose has always been prominent but seems sharper than before.
