South Korean woman's drastic change shocks online forums
A South Korean woman has been accused of 'ruining her face' after 'before' and 'after' shots of her plastic surgery procedure spread online.
The unnamed woman, allegedly a reporter on a South Korean TV channel, has undergone jaw surgery in order to achieve the dainty heart-shaped face desired by many east Asian women.
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.
The result of the procedure is an unusually pointed chin, and the reactions on a Japanese online forum did not hold back.
One used wrote: 'Someone please tell me this was Photoshopped!' while another quipped that 'it looks like you could plow a field with that chin,' RocketNews24 reports.
Another asked: 'Is it really possible to taper someone’s chin that much? She really doesn’t know what true beauty is.'
