We’re in 2025, and to this day people say Kim Taeyeon is all natural, along with her other teammates in Girls Generation and I gasp so hard because pre debut cosmetics is a MUST. No exception. And I’m not even going to talk about Aespa’s face transformation. Or even BTS who besides not having the face transf as a result of being scrutinized by HYBE STAFF or even “Fans”, still they felt the need to do minor cosmetics, rhinoplasty which is the most common beside idols, or even the chin implants which is also very common to make your chin in the V Line.
If I’m going to be honest, saying 30% of the K-Pop Industry MAXIMUM didn’t do very big changes with Plastic Surgery, but only minor cosmetics (Botox, Lip fillers etc). Maybe 5-10% is all natural MAYBE. And it’s no big deal.
They don’t deny it, but also don’t say it either bc of their respective company or because they bluntly know that what holds their fans is their face and body. If you have the dance, singing and visuals, well you’re the “Ace”. But we’re talking about K-Pop where majority of groups don’t have all the skills, but their beauty and personality.
K-Pop never is about true talent, and nobody can ever make my mind. First they see the body and face, THEN they’ll evaluate your talent. But, even if you’re just pretty they’ll criticize, so you’ll constantly have to prove your point.
K-Pop is merely for people who don’t have nothing to do with their lives, so they can be obsessed about you. You can be the pretty with minor talent that people feel bad because you don’t have any talent, or be the Ugly with a good personality but talent, yet people will never talk about the actual talent unless you become pretty. Talent rarely actually matters. Only for people who actually listens to music besides K-Pop and knows what a actual performer and singer is.
