May be all of you already knew this, but i just came through this today. I never knew about this . I saw a post in Crunchyroll about plastic surgery which had pics of japanese celebs who had gone through plastic surgery/surgeries. Due to curiosity I checked for Korean celebs and Chinese celebs who had done this and many of them had gone through plastic surgery.

It's not like this is going to make any difference to their acting/singing. I know many people do this now but I was disappointed (?)coz I thought some stars are naturally gorgeous >_<... Cyndy Wang, Ariel Lin, Rainie Yang (knew that already) , BOA, Jay Chou, Selina (from SHE) even Jackie Chan had done it...You can find lots of videos on youtube. I don't know how to upload a video in my post, so I will just post the sites.
Some other articles :-

BBC reported that 50 percent of Korean women in their 20s have had some form of plastic surgery http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/programmes...
American talk show queen Oprah Winfrey described Korea as the "Republic of Plastic Surgery" on TV

Wowww really? Its disappointing for sure! But, the youtube pictures.. most of them look merely like pictures of the stars with and without make-up.. 😳 I don't know about surgery..

I know what you mean....I was thinking the same...but I have seen another video of Cyndi with a different nose...I think its on youtube...I will dig it out.
Song Hye Kyo - I never ever thought she did it....oh well it's not like her acting is gonna change due to some sort of surgery but I can't get over it for some reason (coz i thought she is a natural beauty >_<)

I think lots of Asian celebrities have had some sort of surgery even if its something little.. maybe its normal there to have surgery, atleast thats what I thought while watching a few kdramas from the way they talk about it

Aww wow.. I really didn't see that one coming, this girl looks like a natural beauty to me as well! I guess its nothing to be surprised about.. i see it happening everyday..Hollywood is much worse! Have you seen Madonna before her surgeries!?
Regaurding the pictures you just showed me.. half those pictures don't look like her 😆 But, again.. not surprised. I've heard Mike He also has done surgery.. and THAT makes me sad! 😆😆

It's so common that I was shocked! But I can see why they do it...but certain surgeries get on my nerves...i just read on a blog that a child had something done to her tongue so she could pronounce 's' better in English >.<...Do read it...very interesting.
I'm not researching anymore 😆...

yeh i heard that on Tyra banks show, where the lady said that she went for plastic surgery because she had to otherwise her eye lids would droop too much and will effect her sight.
I can understand what they mean. some people dnt have sugery for cosmetic reasons they have it for medical reasons too.
But im sorta shocked too at the stats, will see the vids too thanks for those 😊
