I only know two idols (without further research) who did plastic surgery: Kwanghee (Ze:a) and Leeteuk (SuJu). Actually.. Leeteuk's surgery is not confirmed. This ASSUMPTION (I repeat: assumption) is based on a fan-made thread and their observings. I can't really see much of a difference... But maybe you can? Anyway, this blog post is assuming Leeteuk did have surgery ^^

Leeteuk "before" and "after":

Kwanghee "before" and "after": (prepare to die)

Now while Kwanghee looked pretttty bad before the surgery, Leeteuk actually looked quite OK. Decide for yourself if you think it was worth it... (I believe it was.)

Poor Kwanghee couldn't have his dark skin removed (obviously) and has to apply tons of make-up to get just a little closer to the pearly white skin we all dream of. I think plastic surgery is awesome! Heck, if I had the money and a good surgeon I would "fix" the shape of my face a little. Just a little subtle tweaking... Maybe change my nose... Aaah~ I already feel happier XD

Let's face it. These guys (Kwanghee more than Leeteuk) needed surgery. Kwanghee went through so much surgery, he isn't allowed to drink alcohol!

I would still like them if I met them as normal person to normal perspn, their personalities are awesome after all... But being an idol, the first thing idols have in common is their good looks. An idol makes their money, because people love them enough to buy their stuff and support them. Fans are like a few thousand 'sugar daddies'.

We love them because they can sing, we love them because they can dance, we love them because they are funny, we love them because they are living the dream (from our perspective, at least).

Be honest now, would you ship Kwanghee (Ze:a) and Siwan (Ze:a) if Kwanghee didn't look like he does now? We love handsome/cute/pretty/beautiful/cool people and Kwanghee does look quite nice in a comical kind of way now, doesn't he? Now TWO handsome/cute/... people together are even more awesome!

Don't get me wrong... I seriously hope all Idols can find a person to love in their life (male or female). But sadly, if the company doesn't forbid it, they don't have enough time.

Wait a minute... Aren't we getting off topic? Do I have to change the title now? No? Ok, then.

Conclusion: PLASTIC SURGERY IS AWESOME AND SOMETIMES NECESSARY TO BE SUCCESSFUL.

I think it's pretty horrible that some fans create "anti-fan cafés" just because the idol they admire has found it's (maybe temporary) other half. Don't you love being in love? So, amidst all the they have to go through a person a person who is always there for them is nice to have.

Their parents cannot possibly understand their pain and maybe the "kids" don't want to tell them what they are going through? No one wants to trouble their parents. So do they have to hide that they are suffering under the pressure and the overload of work?

The fellow members are just as tired, so relying on them and therefore creating MORE stress for them would be too cruel. So... Who else? Siblings? Best friends? Nope, your lover.

I sincerely hope that idols (who are normal people, actually... Just very well-known and entertaining normal people) will have enough time at some point to find a wife/husband and have kids and have a happy life outside all the stress...

Heck my dad had his first kid when he was 32!! My mom was pregnant when she was 25!! But do people like Leeteuk, Kangin, Heechul, ... Have the time for all this? They do not. They are buried in schedules (or they're in the army).

Idols are overworked and I really respect that they can still look so happy every day. If they find a girlfriend, let him have a girlfriend. They definitely deserve it.
