To be a star is not easy. Besides talent and hard work, you need to look the part. And if you want to look like sexy popstar Lee Hyori, the music channel, Mnet, reports that it will cost you a pretty penny.
First up, the body part that most women in Korea want as their own are Hyolee’s twin assets. Surgery for breast augmentation will set you back 7 - 8 million won. Since tight midriff baring clothes are a must, you need to get lipo and this will cost about 6 million won. You also must have slim dancing legs and since most average Koreans are cursed with the moos, leg lipo will cost about 3 million each. Next up, the face. If you want those sexy squinty peepers, the surgery for double lids will drain your bankbook by another 2-3 million won. To get a perfect nose, another 3 million and to lift and tighten your sagging skin (at least for me), that will be another 13 million won. In total, to look like superstar Hyolee, you will need about 30 to 35 million won. And that doesn’t includes talent.
wow- definitely not cheap….
wow…..
did SHE get all that surgery done?
yes~
i wonder how Hyori’s child will look like??
yeah, nomu.. i’m also wonderin how her child (or children) is gonna look like.. i cant believe she’s also gone under the knife.. sad..
did boa ever get any plastic surgery done?
boa, if am not mistaken also got under the knife…
LeeHyoRi before surgery pix..!!! heehee
aargh…she looked fine before….why did she want to become one of those plastic girls…so lame!! well, she did tricked me…i didn’t even notice…^_^
why is it that celebrities can’t admitt that they get/got plastic surgery? if it’s that embarrassing than y do they get it? i mean, they’re obviously not the only one who get’s plastic surgery. i mean, look at shinji, solbi, and jean hyebin. they’re all confident about they’re plastic surgery, and could admit it with no hesitation. so.. to look like hyori, it would be 30-35million dollars? cause won and dollars don’t seem any different.. hyori must make a lot of money for her appearance!

so, thats common in korea? but still, yuri is not beautiful. her face looks simply mundane and mediocre. maybe she needs more surgey.
She did NOT get SURGERY ..this article is about people wanting to LOOK like her! READ..lol
that’s one year’s worth of college for me
MICHAEL read also…
popseoul, the poster answered the vxnannie’s question “did SHE get all that surgery done?” popseoul’s answer..”yes~”
besides the artilce did not say her NATURAL TWIN ASSET…
so she is just like any Korean celebrity…had undergone the knife. are there still natural beauties out there in Korea?
nomu, her children can have the surgery also if they want to look good.
no wonder she shows interest on Tony. she needs loads of money for her body maintenance.
Can anyone tell me how much is 1 won equal in U.S or Canadian dollars Im thinking of going to korea to do my nose
Tracy - one won equals US$1.07 (but exchange rates are flexible depending on when you are going)
if you are seriously thinking of going to Korea to get your nose done, watch out for those “package deals” - they offer to do your nose, eyes, chin, etc for a cheaper price and shady plastic surgeons
Kangnam and apgujungdong are two hot spots for plastics
IS there a plastic surgery offered for stars for chins (if they want it smaller) or for jays implants?..LOL!!they could change there whole face if they want to!LOL!please answer..thanks!
“they offer to do your nose, eyes, chin, etc for a cheaper price and shady plastic surgeons

You know how there’s “shady plastic surgeons” there? Does that mean it’s not good, or like.. it’s bad or something?
oh, goodness, she’s done all those stuff? i wonder how she looks without all those. humans can really make miracles. can’t accept totally what GOD has given.
to krnxyuhjah - “shady plastic surgeons?” wah,i don’t know that sort of stuff..hahaha!!!maybe, it’s on the bad side or something..because there are reliable and licensed professional plastic surgeons in Korean..but there are some who offer people who wanted to have a surgery who are short in budget so they kinda offer them a cheaper price..it’s a no-no!LOL!it’s too risky to lwt change a bit of your face if they’re not professional..they might regret it for a lifetime if the surgery is not ok..haha!.
=nwei,are you a girl or a boy?..
i’ve read that she has lines around her eyes, and now, no more. so both body and face are plastic done, eh.
as in OMG!!i can’t believe that lee hyori had all these plastic surgeries..but excellent job of those plastic surgeons,huh?..hahaha!!!i think stars such as song ji-hyo,park han-byeol,song hye-gyo and jun ji hyun are the only ones who haven’t try to get some plastic surgeries..and i they don’t have to,because they’re just so natural!!!they’re all pretty and sexy!!!LOL!!love them..
emm naa..
Thanks for the reply popseoul, I’m just very curious about plastic surgery in korea seems alot more trustworthy than in north america, I’m from toronto cananda and we don’t have many great plastic surgeons..Korea is a definate place for me to visit in the future
By “shady”, I think popseoul means plastic surgeons that are unqualified to carry out surgeries, that is “quack” plastic surgeons. Anyone intending to have plastic surgeries, please think twice about the health risks involved. Surely you dont want to be another Michael Jackson! Only those needing reconstructive plastic surgery should go under the knife as they have no choice.
good for her…at least she can afford it
My Korean friend whom I met in Jordan admitted she had her jaw redifined whilst she was a teenager. She claimed it was a common procedure in Korea. Parents make their children go under the knife to make them more beautiful. Is that true?
aww..i’ve read from some articles in the internet that chin reduction is quite risky that chin augmentation..0_o
imagine yourself,with a surgery knives and screws being used in your surgery…that’s creepy..
i wonder what she looked like before……..
i thought hyori was all natural..so she even got a boob job?
^ please read the article more carefully.
popseoul replied YES, when ask, did hyori underwent all those surgeries? why do you insist, christianpete. dont push us to believe hyori’s natural or half-baked only. you can’t. PERIOD. to most of us, she’s a prototype of a plastic woman..PERIOD. whatever, you say, you can’t change opinions. PERIOD.
flash21, then most are wrong. I suggest you do a photo comparison of Hyori’s teen pics and her adult pics. These are strong evidence that she is basically a natural beauty. It seems you hold an irrational hatered against Ms. Lee, perhaps for some ridiculous reason. Its more than likely you are jealous of one of the most beautiful women in the world - Hyori. Jealousy will eat you up from the inside, unless you come to your senses
i think hyori is natural. i dont’ know if she’s all natural but mostly. u can tell from lookin at her earlier days. but i didn’t know she had a boob job? i thought that was natural too..i guess if it’s true i wouldn’t be surprised though cuz the twins are pretty big. if they’re natural, envious is all i’d say.
It’s common nowadays in America that a teenage girl can ask for breast implants as her 16th birthday gift. For Hollywood celebrity, I’m sure 90% have plastic surgery (including men). If not on face, then on their bodies. So only the poor folks like us, have no money or ambition to refine our faces for simple jobs like: engineering. Have you seen beautiful couples with ugly children? Yes I have, for sciencetist has yet found a way to re-fine the genes to reshape the unborn babies facial structure in matching with their parents’ new faces.
The article states that if you wanna look like Hyori than it would be expensive, not that she had expensive surgeries.
Popseoul hints that she is a fat, wrinkly woman desperate for plastic surgery. (Or is it a he?) Why would you believe everything a loser, who envies celebrities, says?
hyori with implants is OLD news. I don’t know why popseoul chose Hyori as an example of plastic surgery and maybe she did get lipo on her legs but her face is real.
forreal? and how did you get this information? i know they all had surgeryy n im fine with it but ur body is something u can change nto ur eyes or nose so it’s okk but did she really do all of that OMG she is just LYKE BOA
you people don’t get it.. i know lee hyori did something about herself but, the article said, “IF YOU WANT TO LOOK LIKE HYORI” duh!! it means, if want to look like her, you have to spend that much money.
its impossible hyori would change herself into almost everything..
but i’ve seen hyori before she went into knife.. she’s kind of chubby looking and i never thought i was her, its totally different. i had to compare the picture for a little while..
Haha! I know this is old, but I really enjoy it when you use the word “moos.” It’s probably when I laugh the most.
curse those asian moo legs!
I must know. I’m a fan of Hyori, but I don’t consider her… ‘talented’
I know this is old, but I must know… were you being sarcastic about the last line and talent?
-sLaVe
Can’t believe some people still think hyori a natural…, tell u the truth almost all korean celebs had surgey…except song hye kyo, lee young ae, kim hee seon, and kim tae hee..cuz n whom had the highest votes or highest news that “they’ the most natural korean celebs”. Anyways celebs from the poorest country in the world are proably the most natural looking poeple since they don’t have enough money to do surgery.
didnt u guys read the article carefully? its saying if you want to look like hyori not how hyori did all these crap. O..o
i doubt she had all that done….. even so, shes hot anyways. double eyelid and jaw reduction thingy yeah…. but not all that
Hey guys, Popseoul is an avenue to discover, discuss and de-stress (for me) so please try NOT to judge/comment negatively.
I love Popseoul and appreciate all it has done to bring us news, gossip/amusement and pics… I mean, that’s more fulfilling than most of my relationships! ;P
Popseoul how do you know she had surgery done? did you ask her or read gossip rumors some where?
fuck da shit about u damn bith faggot ass nigga ass shit plastic surhgeryes. Fucking gook ass bitche ass nigga duh dat fuck lover wack shit ass shizzle my nizzle wanka foot ass jock
“And that doesn’t includes talent” <–TOTALLY AGREE
this article is about how much it will cost to look like hyori, not about hyori going under knife. besides, the poster has no source to prove it if he/she meant that hyori did get surgery.
Popseoul,
How can you claim that Hyori have done all those plastic surgery when I saw several pictures of her as a child and she looks pretty much the same to me! Check out this link on youtube!!!!!

she did get plastic surgery. double eyelids (they dont look natural; if you want to see natural double eyelids, take a look at kim tae hee’s), a chin-cut for “v-line”, probably something on her body, and of course, her nose job, which she admitted to: check this korean site out. hyori finally admitted to plastic surgery after many years:

LMFAO @ moos
you’re hilarious..
Good lord…Forget looking like her…lol
wow. that sounds like wayyy to much work.
:/
35 million won? how much is that converted to canadian money? 50 grand? im just getting my face done so it’ll be a little cheaper right? maybe 20 grand? i’ve got the body (i lose wait really easily and is already uber skinny >_<
and im keeping my petite boobs=)
35 million won is about 37,041.569 canadian dollars give or take…sheesh it’s expensive to be movie star beautiful hahah…not to mention painful, ouch!
uh WHO CARES! PLASTIC SURGERY IS FOR DESPARATE STUPID LOWLIFE DINK THEY ARE REALLY FREAKEN UGLY!
35 million? wow.
so much lol.
hahaha. You forgot to add that Hyori has no talent either, which is probably why she cut herself up in the first place.
I personally have nothing against plastic surgeries. If you were to be in the person’s shoes who have been desperate of changing their face or body (either because they hate it or they find it ugly) you would consider it, unless you want to live your life under low self-imgae and self-esteem, feeling very unattractive. And as for celebs, they make a living out of beauty. Beauty is what makes them noticeable and a star after talent. So its very unfair to judge celebrities like that.
If I remember, 1000 won = $1.00 US
Therefore 30 million won = $30,000 US currency.
Another fake one. I would think BoA is a fakey too. Look at her face. People are not born with faces like that. Though there are exceptions. And why do they lie they are natural when they’re not?!? LAME-O!!! The girl can’t even dance or sing I don’t even know why she is so popular…@____@ Gummy is a good singer and she doesn’t get enough acknowledgment so does many other singers….
eyelid surgery only costs around $1,000 or less now-a-days
and nose jobs are $2,000. not as expensive as u think
