A man is a girl’s best friend: Lee Shiyeon

20080122leeshiyeonbefore(before)

As you can see, Lee Dae-hak (now Lee Shi-yeon) has crossed over to the other side. He is now a she thanks to plastic surgery. And with all the surgery that this man-woman has gotten, she has become an example of Korea’s finest plastic surgery techniques. Note (below) the new smaller, pointer nose, the tattooed beauty mole on the side of her nose (to draw attention to it- also note that it’s green), botoxed cheeks to make her looks softer and rounder but she looks more like a chipmunk, double eye folds, and the roll of fat under the eyes…

With multiple procedures, the She-male actually looks soft and feminine at certain angles (don’t look at the big feet). Compared to the more famous she-male Harisu, she looks more womanly (check out her hips), but Harisu is more “sexy?”.

And like her namesake Park Shi-yeon, Lee Shiyeon shares her love of plastics. But I wonder what will happen when Ms. Lee’s face deflates?

Maybe she will look like this:

Here, she is one step away from Wacko Jacko (Michael Jackson).

Now this is how she looks at the recent press conference for the movie Sex Zone II. I wonder how this will play out? Will Lee Shi-yeon find happiness as a woman and get settled down like her counterpart, Harisu? Or will she struggle in her life as a woman? Who knows. But we will be watching.

  4. 4 wow January 26, 2008 at 5:43 am

    ok..the before pic looks much more feminine in my opinion
    the after..yuck -_- definitely NOT pretty

  5. 5 Suki January 26, 2008 at 6:11 am

    awwww…people are so mean! she’s pretty! although, alittle weird looking cuse of all the plastic surgery. I bet, that if no one mentioned that it used to be a man, you guys would have either 1) said she was pretty or 2) bash her like crazy for looking so plastic -.-

  6. 6 suga January 26, 2008 at 6:42 am

    ahh another prime example of plastic surgery gone wrong, she look like Shoo .

  7. 7 okeydoke January 26, 2008 at 7:04 am

    facking disgusting

  8. 8 cherry_o January 26, 2008 at 7:15 am

    the green mole was originally there…and i never thought people in korea were so open to plastic surgery. in america, when people go get their sex changed, they will keep it a secret. what’s with these ppl?

  9. 9 Leigh January 26, 2008 at 8:01 am

    I would be SO MISTAKEN!!! He turned out so cute and attractive! hahaha well, at least to me. His hands are even prettier than mine! >.<

  10. 10 arori January 26, 2008 at 8:18 am

  15. 15 EM. January 26, 2008 at 9:39 am

  16. 16 amareally January 26, 2008 at 9:49 am

  17. 17 spin January 26, 2008 at 11:10 am

    ok, I’m grossed out now, but I’m sure he’s some gay guy’s dream.

    But I’m really grossed out still.

  18. 18 CiiNDY January 26, 2008 at 12:10 pm

    dyou have any pictures from when she was a man?
    it looks like a freakin blackhead on her nose.

  19. 19 aeri January 26, 2008 at 12:59 pm

    harisu is still queen in my book.

  20. 21 Ann*e January 26, 2008 at 2:39 pm

    oh my. another one of these people. -.-
    but.. hm… i don’t know what to say
    lol.

  21. 22 Q January 26, 2008 at 4:06 pm

    Plastic surgery wasn’t necessary. Dude already looked like a girl.

  22. 23 R. Kelly January 26, 2008 at 5:25 pm

    How is he a she now? Yes, he got gender reassignment surgery, but that only means he’s a man with a surgically altered penis. Does he produce estrogen naturally like a woman? Can he get pregnant like a woman? This is just… bizarre….

  23. 24 sweetie14 January 26, 2008 at 5:34 pm

    umm…she looks manly…lmao

  24. 25 p-apple January 26, 2008 at 9:58 pm

    green mole?xD watdahel

  25. 26 Yin January 26, 2008 at 11:25 pm

    can he..er..she breathe through that freaking tiny nose?

  26. 27 Mheaven January 27, 2008 at 1:21 am

    umm was much much mUUUCH hotter as a man! What a waste T_T

  27. 28 E January 27, 2008 at 1:37 am

    Lee Shi-yeon looks super pretty, but since I saw her when she was still a man(Lee Dae-hak) I thought he was super cute and kinda hot but if the way he is now makes him happy then go for it. Its his life.

  28. 29 resabambino January 27, 2008 at 3:54 am

    Hey POPSEOUL, Can you put a picture of before the surgery. Just curious because I don’t know who this person is. PLEASE.. thanks a lot

  29. 30 whatever~ January 27, 2008 at 5:09 am

    well, putting aside the fact that she was a he before and that he did every single thing on his face…why would you tattoo a mole in your nose?! I mean really if he really felt he was a woman and finally became one (in the most eee technical sense) thanks to surgery, I think that was enough…I think tattoing a mole in your face is like the stupidest thing ever, I can’t really get it, and she would have ended up looking more womanly if he hadn’t gone under so much surgery on his face cause it really looks so weird T_T good luck tho.

  30. 31 anon January 27, 2008 at 5:21 am

    why waste so much money on plastic surgery when you can be gay freely in the US!

  31. 32 Bloodymax January 27, 2008 at 11:58 am

    Her nose is like Michael Jackson’s! UGLYY!

  32. 33 Bloodymax January 27, 2008 at 12:00 pm

    Well not quite but still looks distorted.. N fake

  33. 34 blogr January 27, 2008 at 12:47 pm

    AHHHHH FOR GOD’S SAKES MY EYES

  34. 35 sf January 27, 2008 at 3:24 pm

    @ anon
    In LSY and Harisu’s case, I don’t think this a question of sexuality (though it’s an inherent implication) but more of the fact they WANT to BE GIRLS. They don’t want to just be able to date other guys – they specifically want to BE a girl.

    Being gay/lesbian is simply liking the same gender while not wishing to change your own gender; otherwise, maintaining every semblence of your current lifestyle except the gender of your lover. Whereas transsexuals, while they may be completely heterosexual, want to be another gender and live the lifestyle, regardless of their biological orientation.

    This is why not all gays/lesbians are transexual and not all transsexuals are gay/lesbian. In any case, your statement is moot.

  35. 36 mj January 27, 2008 at 4:18 pm

    One common misunderstanding about Harisu. She is not a real transgender. She was born with male and female biological characteristics. Her parents, when she was a baby, had to choose which sex their child would grow up to be. They chose her to be their son. When she grew up, she realized that they made the wrong choice and felt that her woman’s instincts were stronger than that of a man. Apparantly this is a very common biological phenomena all over the world.

  36. 37 bellamuerte January 28, 2008 at 1:44 pm

    I’m just wondering how he/she’s gonna sound like.. This is sooooo weird….
    @_@

  37. 38 Sarah January 30, 2008 at 7:54 am

    OMG One eye is bigger and the other is crooked in the picture…haha the mole is in the wrong place. Moles don’t grow on your nose silly woman…man…woman??? SHEMAN!

  38. 39 Dovey January 31, 2008 at 5:56 pm

    Oh god…she looks worse than Harisu. XD I couldn’t even look at more than one picture…his…erm, I mean her face looks too damn fake.

  39. 40 aegyo February 1, 2008 at 12:01 am

    what’s with the mole hunny?! hahaha.

    tsk, tsk, i really don’t know but there’s something wrong with her/his face that i couldn’t quite put a finger on.

  40. 41 Girl From Arabia April 1, 2008 at 11:16 pm

    uggggghhhh…
