Korean netizens are having a debate on whether aespa’s Karina had plastic surgery.
On March 8, a netizen made a post on the popular Korean forum Nate Pann with the title “Didn’t Karina’s face change because of makeup instead of plastic surgery?”
This netizen attached a pre-debut photo and a current bare-faced photo of the idol, claiming that her bare face has looked the same since high school.
In the comment section, other Internet users are leaving mixed opinions regarding this topic. The top comments are as follows:
“She’s already born with features that can’t be covered by plastic surgery. LOL It’s hard or impossible to fix things such as face shape, face size, facial feature harmony, face side line, etc. with plastic surgery. Those are Karina’s best attractive points”
“People’s faces change easily even with minor things. Their faces change a lot from diet and braces. Some people’s appearance just change over time. Karina just got bigger and natural changes thanks to double eyelid surgery ╋ braces, ╋ hair and makeup, and so on. Honestly, it’s not like she’s just became another person level, it’s still Karina”
“The fact that the only thing people always use her graduation picture from elementary school to claim she had plastic surgery LOL. Who can stay the same compared to themselves in 6th grade? And there is no part on Karina’s face that people can accuse of overly done plastic surgery. Even her double eyelid surgery was based on the original line”
“She did it before high school. What are you talking about?”
“Honestly, if past photos are this much different from now, I think she must have used editing apps for her online photos, but if then, how could she be cast by a large agency in the first place? Cause in that case overly-edited influencers on Instagram can debut as the center of SM’s Girls’ Generation?”
