6. [+176, -3] If I saw these pictures without explanations, I would've thought they were virtual AI...

12. [+64, -1] Miss Koreas of the past were won by the better hair salons... now winners are made by plastic surgery clinics

13. [+49, -2] All the nose and cheek fillers are gross ㅡㅡ;;

 

14. [+33, -0] They look exactly like the trendy virtual AI models nowadays

Miss Plastic 2022. Their surgeons should get the award, not them

[Guest]

seriously. Korea needs to start acknowledging the plastic surgery problem. 

 

people in power should stop manipulating the citizens just so they can make money off them.

This was uncomfortable but necessary, I am pleasantly surprised something like this exist and hopefully more people will watch it. It not normal for kids or young 20 something to get surgeries.

Y'all are something else... I think they look fine.

They're so beautiful..  what are you guys talking about saying they look like something out of a horror movie? That is so rude.
If you wish for beauty pageants to prohibit plastic surgery, that is a whole different conversation.

Can you not see they all look alike and that there is a lot of plastic there? That they don't look horrible isn't the point, it is about the unhealthy way of living.

Wasn't Miss Korea in 2018 bashed for not being pretty enough and got called fat? Now  that's unhealthy. Folks created the unhealthy environment and will throw jabs at someone who hasn't had any "visible" work done for not meeting the standards now everyone is mad that people are having work done. Really? The comment saying they have to be natural beauties is laughable. They will bash anyone who doesn't look like Honey Lee naturally. Kim Soo Min (Miss Korea 2018) is gorgeous and intelligent and she didn't even deserve to get dragged like that, the hate she got was INSANE. 

Also it's rude to assume what these women have had done instead of just congratulating them. But the fact that anyone is focused on that... whew y'all need to go touch some grass.

What is wrong with some people here?

It's none of your business if they had plastic surgeries or not, it’s their decision and body

That some people here shame them for it is honestly messed up

 

And none of the girls look like monsters, what’s wrong with you…

What Soo min went through wasn't normal either and should be talked about. SK has abnormal standards to beauty that just isn’t normal anymore. Underage kids and young adults should not get any surgeries just to try to fit into that image that is unhealthy to begin with. And that is what I and others are saying here. 

I am not critiquing people who get work done, I am critiquing people who continue forcing a unrealistic idea of what beauty is. You have to admit that their sense of beauty is really warped.

there is a huge difference in critiquing the beauty standards and overall plastic surgery culture and straight up saying they look like "something out of a horror movie".
