The British "Daily Mail" reported on April 25th that young Koreans obsessed with celebrity culture wanted to look more "westernized", so they chose plastic surgery. And this obsession is being criticized by some people.
Recently, after a group of photos of South Korea's miss congeniality were made public, it was found that plastic surgery made these beautiful women who were vying for the title of "Miss Korea 20 13" "bump their faces". They all have black curly hair, which is casually draped over their shoulders or rolled up high. They also have fair skin, bright eyes and perfect smiles.
The striking similarity between the beauty contests triggered a heated discussion among more than 3,000 netizens. Some netizens commented that "the injury of cosmetic surgery in Korea is finally reflected in the same face." Some netizens also said, "This is a Korean plastic face. Sometimes walking on the streets of Seoul, you will feel that all women are sisters because they all have the same plastic surgery. "
"Cosmetic surgery has made Korean women lose their individuality. Many people are beautiful even without plastic surgery. But telling them that "having Korean national characteristics is also beautiful" is like casting pearls before swine. "
"They are all brainwashed and think that westernized faces are more attractive."
A South Korean netizen said, "Now people always complain that young girls are no longer like Koreans because of plastic surgery. Now, if I see a girl, I can't help thinking, where did she have a knife? "
Some netizens also believe that this "face bump" reflects the cultural differences between China and the West. Western women hope to enlarge their characteristics through plastic surgery (lip augmentation and breast augmentation), while eastern women often modify themselves through plastic surgery (face-lifting).
Although the prevalence of cosmetic surgery in Korea has reached an alarming level, in fact, this industry is still booming in Korea. The data shows that at present, compared with other countries, more people in South Korea have had plastic surgery. This enthusiasm for plastic surgery is mainly reflected in people aged 19 to 49. Last year, 20% of Seoul women between the ages of 19 and 49 admitted that they had had a knife.
Among them, the most popular plastic surgery is to cut double eyelids. This operation will make the eyes look bigger and more "westernized". The singer "Uncle Bird" became famous all over the world with a song "Jiangnan style" last year, and admitted that his record company urged him to have plastic surgery.
People's Daily Online, Beijing, April 17 (Reporter Liu Rong) South Korea's superb cosmetic technology enjoys a high reputation in the world, and cosmetic surgery has long been an important step for Koreans to pursue beauty and increase their confidence.

Hermione had the most injections, 185. In the public trial, actresses expressed that they just wanted to keep their beauty.
