Has plastic surgery made these beauty queens all look the same? Koreans complain about pageant 'clones'

By Steve Nolan
25 April 2013


South Korea's growing obsession with plastic surgery became apparent when pictures of a group of aspiring beauty queens posted online prompted claims that cosmetic procedures have left all the contestants looking the same.

Pictures of the 20 Miss Korea 2013 finalists were posted on Reddit fuelling speculation that many of them had undergone surgery and prompting users to criticise the Asian nation's growing trend to go under the knife.

South Koreans currently have more plastic surgery than in any other country according to recent figures, with the craze particularly popular among 19 to 49-year-olds.

Reddit user HotBrownie, who claims to hail from Seoul, said: :  'Those women in fact do look unnervingly similar and yes, Koreans think so too.

'This is called the Korean plastic face look. In certain areas of Seoul, you would think all the women are sisters because they look so similar due to same surgeries.

'Without the plastic surgery, korean women are very diverse looking and easily can be told apart.

'The surgery takes away their individuality and uniqueness and its sad. Most are beautiful without it but telling them that their Korean ethnic features are in fact lovely is as effective as screaming at a brick wall.

'They wont believe you because they've been brainwashed to think westernization of their features is superior, I don't think they want to look white, but a mix of white and Asian and definitely less Korean.'

Another Reddit user, Forevertraveling, added: 'I live in Korea and older women complain how girls don't look Korean anymore because of all the plastic surgery.

'It's so common to the point if I meet a girl, I just assume she has had something done.'

'Girls here consider eye surgery just like using makeup.'

The pageant sparked controversy last year when pictures emerged of winner Kim Yu-Mi before she had undergone plastic surgery, with many claiming that cosmetic procedures give contestants an unfair advantage.

The student revealed her plastic surgery secret after photos emerged of her looking very different at school, but she said she hadn't misled anyone.

But she defended her crown telling the Korean media: 'I never said I was born beautiful.'

South Koreans have more plastic surgery than any other nation according to figures released in January.


Miss South Korea Yu-Mi Kim admitted having cosmetic surgery saying: 'I never said I was born beautiful.'
