Agency Approaches Vary

  • YG Entertainment - Reportedly discourages plastic surgery
  • Other agencies - May recommend specific procedures
  • Individual choices - Many trainees decide independently

Jessi's Story

Jessi revealed her agency recommended she "get her nose and eyes done" before debut. She followed the advice but expressed regret about the initial results.

The Pressure Factor

Trainees face intense competition and pressure to look camera-ready. This environment can influence cosmetic procedure decisions.

Changing Attitudes

With more idols speaking openly about procedures, the conversation is shifting from secrecy to informed personal choice.

Make informed choices through our clinic consultations.
