Plastic Surgery?

Well, it seems like he has not received any procedures at all! In 2013 on an episode of KBS’s One Night of TV Entertainment, the host asked if he has always been so good looking and asked if he had received any plastic surgery, to which he replied playfully by saying “I did receive surgery a few days ago…”, but later, he revealed that the surgery was getting his wisdom tooth pulled out. A few years later in 2015 when he appeared as a guest on SBS Power FM’s radio show Kim Young Chul′s Fun Fun Today on July 10, he talked honestly about his appearance and said that sometimes he does get envious of handsome men, but eventually he became confident with his looks. He also said that he did consider getting plastic surgery, but he did not do it because he was too scared and he just wanted to be natural.
