Jang Geun-suk, star of the drama, “Beethoven’s virus” is a cutie. But what the hell did he do to his face? There is no need to mess up a perfectly good, in fact gorgeous nose!!!! Hollywood wants to have noses like that. What was wrong with his nose before that he had to make the bridge higher? That was totally unnecessary. I completely blame his manager.
Plastic Fantastic: Why mess with perfection, Jang Geuk-suk?
Published November 14, 2008 plastic fantasticTags: Jang Geun Suk


you got a horrible after picture
his nose doesnt look really diff. hes still a cutie and a great actor <3
I am not attracted to him, but I think he is a good actor.
I have to agree with this article though T.T I think he was better looking in the past, especially when he still had his baby face. But now .. (sigh).
wait a minute… no way……
i think by lookin at the picture i can say that the before pictures are better than the after picutres… but who knows maybe the angles are just not great at those picture
nope, he’s still hot :] with his facial hair
gosh. bad move!!!!!!!!
I noticed this the other day while I was skimming through the channel with him in it. I noticed that his nose was higher than in the past. It made him look more mature. I’m not sure if it’s his new nose that made him look more mature or if he’s just gaining weight.
the after pic in the middle looks scary~~~ feels like he just sticks something inside his nose in order to make it higher but no, it looks weird and caveman-like.
i’m not a fan of korean drama but he does look cute both before and after except the after nose.
Popseoul, you intentionally posted ugly ‘after’ photos right? so as to enhance its ugliness..
yea, he did made a wrong move though he’s still good-looking now..
it’s a subtle nose job. ok la…
i liked his acting in Beethoven a lot. his best so far.
…he looks the same just a lil chubbier..and um..if he thinks he needed a nose job or whatever else..that’s his decision to make..and that goes for anyone..because in the end we’ll ridicule them for doing it or not doing it..
all i can say is he looks older in that AFTER pictures..
Geez…he is better looking before.
he look like Jo In Sung
And do you believe that he had the guts to say that he didn’t have surgery?
I don’t blame his manager I blame him for doing it and denying it.
He;s a talented young man but he’s so f#$%$ cocky. Its so annoying. Good thing his acting is good.
I totally don’t see a change D:
I’m sorry, I honestly don’t see the difference. The pixelized picture makes it hard to differentiate between the two. I honestly think he looks good. I just think he recently put on some weight in the face compared to the past is all.
he looks better before…
so ungrateful….
i can’t tell the diff seriously.
he’s cute
I hope he feels sorry for himself. He looked older. Poor guy!
what happened to his face? he looks like he’s 40!
Well about the nose,,, i dont see the difference? haha..
WTH man, his nose looks exactly the same…
He just looks older now and you got bad after pictures…
Jang Geun Suk should not do funny things to his face aka hwanhee. He’s really got the cute moody thing going on, lurve him!
Uhhh… so is Popseoul trying to highlight his ‘nose surgery’?
Because I don’t see any difference! The angle IS different but that’s it….
on 2nd look, it really looks no different. actors can tense their facial muscles WHEN THEY’RE ACTING. their facial features can look different.
is he really cocky? i thought he’s just flaky. all those glam punk clothes are better on a real Rock Star
Of course he looked older. The after pictures are when he IS older. =_=
no wonder why his been looking more older…but I do see a change in the bridge like you mention..just not sure if it’s just the make up effects…I mean he play younger roles before so they try to define his bridge a bit more to make him looking more youthful
now his transforming to more mature roles so no need for that much make up.
I see the weight gain, but with just the nose bridge change, that’s a bit blah…he doesn’t really have to spend money on that…make up would do…so for now I won’t believe he had surgery
eya, i noticed that (high of a) bridge too when i was watching the drama. some of you are saying it’s a bad angle & ish but trust me, it ain’t. i’m very keen when it comes to celebs & their “enhancements” & usually, i’m the 1 defending the celebs (not getting surgery) but his nose has been enhanced for sure.
i’m pretty sure he got a filler, so it’ll wear off like botox. let’s just hope he doesn’t get it again -_-;;;
he didnt have plastic surgery he just grew up. kinda like leonardo dicaprio. manlihood is not faring him well.
At first, I was gonna say I didn’t see any difference. Then I saw the middle picture and the place where his nose meets his forehead, compared it with the Before pictures and… Yeah.
That’s totally noticeable once you realise it’s there x.x;
i think d before nose is better
The after nose is so weird…
POPSEOUL it does not look like he received any plastic surgery. Are you starting rumors?
he had a car accident recently—> go read the blog @ dramabeans and seach the tag under beethoven virus
(CAR ACCIDENT) people!!!
Are you people BLIND? He looks EXACTLY the same. Not even kinda the same, EXACTLY the same.
Eh…there isn’t any difference what? Not that I can spot. At most it is only because he is getting older, so his features are developing and a little different. Anyway it is the angle and how far/near the photo is taken. He looks the same.
mm you’re stupid. he didn’t do anything to his nose.
eum.. i don’t think he had a surgery or whatsoever.. nothing in his face has changed.. not even the nose.. its still the same old nose he had.. ^^
its just that he got older and his skin is kind of aging or something similar to that.. yaha~~
he looks better before.. but, he’s still gorgeous and hot! and his song is nice.. gyahahahaha ^^
Nothing has changed.. u need new glasses…
OR
you need to get better pictures to prove it.
Unless your just copying a rumour form another new reel
i dont see any difference. and lol popseoul. you intentionally compared his before photos to ugly after photos. lol
I don’t see the difference. *shrug*
…i dont see it…
His nose looks absolutely the same
I don’t really see difference, but maybe I’m blind. I really don’t think though that he had a plastic surgery.
uhh…his nose looks the same. i don’t think he got surgery
I don’t really see difference i think he just grow up and lose he’s baby face and be a man i stell love him oppa fighting
I dont see much different but other than he looks more mature………
I don’t see any diffrence. Get me pictures were the angles and the lighting are the same and then make a comparison, otherwise you don’t really have anything…Except he gained a little weight……
is it just age? looks older moreso than messed up from a nose job
I don’t see any difference at all. Maybe I’m just so bad at looking at people’s faces. I don’t think he had a surgery though. Are u sure about your article. Sorry…
I think you should take this post off.. Instead of grabbing some Korea Entertainment rumors, you guys are starting one. So dumb. Why create Popseoul?
i freaking love jang geun suk
hes my fav korean actor
so i dun really care
i dont see the difference?
he just grew older
It’s really almost an indiscernible difference
You’re wasting your time picking on this…
But he does look manlier these days… hrmmm….
I don´t see the difference either, other than he just looks a bit older in the “after” pictures, wich is normal.
Honestly, I do not see it.
It’s just the camera angles. And age.
stupid manager and pressure, ruined a completely handsome face! =T
tut tut to the manager
wow.
i thought popseoul is gonna make another thread about who had surgery or not lmao
his very cool guy
but i have to say the suirgery made his nose look worse….
his previous nose were more pointy.. thats goood
maybe doctor fed up on the surgery..
i cant see the difference here ><!
His nose looks the same in both before and after pics?
PS,mind highlighting on the exact part where you think he’s done surgery?
cos his nose does’nt seem to have change in any way to me.
whhhyyy???
i luved his nose~~huhu
I think any well educated person would know that he just matured. That would make more sense than one getting surgery to make their nose wider right? Afterall the cartilage tissues in the nose and ears never stop growing .
I don’t see the difference either. Like others have said post images with the same angles and lighting and then we might see it but even then I doubt it.
i dont think he done surgery cause the angel of camera and the make up can make the big different.
um. i see no difference.
he looks the same for me…
probably the angle popseoul….
u should pick another pic to clear it up
sheesh, he just grew up… he had such a baby/pretty boy face when he started, so of course he looks different now.
i think its the hair… he looks perfectly fine in Baby and Me…and doesn’t look any different in Beethoven Virus, except for the hair.
plus you purposely put up ugly shots for the “after.”
I dont think his nose looks diff. I think he got like a broken nose or something. The middle bone is sticking out awkwardly, like someone who got a broken nose.
I can’t tell the difference from these pictures, it looks practically the same.
You can’t just blame all facial changes, especially in changes like higher nose bridges, on plastic surgery. Your face continues to grow and change shape. Although your bone may stop growing length-wise because the epiphyseal plate hardens, the bone does not stop growing in width. The nose will continue to grow as the chondrocytes undergo mitosis and calcify. Your face wil naturally change as you grow older (like the cheekbones shifting backwards), eventually giving you the “old” look. Study pictures of people, non-celebrity, when they were young vs. when they are older and you will see how much the face changes. And the nose is one of the most obvious changes in the human face. In other words, IF his nose changed, it could be completely biological.
That and I personally don’t think that the angles of the photos justify the claim being made.
this makes me laugh. western celebs get nose jobs to get noses like Jang Geun Suk’s before, natural nose!! and he changes it…for what? he had such a nice nose, why change it??
ummmm….did he really?
doo you have proof that he actually got it done other than those badly chosen pictures of his different facial expressions? haha
what are you talking about? he just looks more mature and i highly doubt its due to pastic surgery. stop being so nit-picky popseoul. I noticed a difference but I think its due to his facial hair and he gained more weight. Your claim would only carry weight if the pictures weren’t so various with different angles, backgrounds, etc. Like of course he’s gonna look different when he’s compared to how he looks in a drama to when he looks his normal self.
holy crap popseoul you noticed that too!! seriously, i’m not kidding, just two days ago i realized there was a significant difference between him two years ago and now. i was watching beethoven virus and decided to look at his past videos on youtube and was like, “whaat? maybe it’s just me.” but now i see that you have article on it!!
Those are just really unfortunate pictures of him that was taken randomly, I think his nose looks the same. I’m sure he will look pretty much the same if he was ready for those shots.
AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT DOESNT SEE A DIFFERENCE?!?!
I just see him looking more tired and mature in the pictures on the right. I really don’t see a different nose =/ I barely see it when I keep staring… or I’m just telling myself that I see something =/
His nose has always been nice and straight. I honestly don’t see much difference between the before and after pictures, at least not drastic changes that I would accuse him of having plastic surgery. Angle, make up and weight gain/loss can play a big role, plus the nose continues to grow throughout your entire life.
Oh, and I think his nose is “straight” but not “tall”.
Here’s a better “before” pic of his nose. http://i165.photobucket.com/albums/u49/jesley_acute/0oq1.jpg
The appearance of the face changes with age.
he did his nose?
i can’t really tell the difference, are you sure he did plastic surgery??
i can’t see the difference.
he went through puberty, proven by his voice change. wheres the diff?
there’s no diff in the pic at all
seriously
it’s either me blind or there;s no diff at before and after pic at all
i kinda doubt that i am blind
cant see the diff.
he prob did get surgery buh those arent b4 pics.
The title said: Jang Geuk-suk.
The article said: Jang Geun-suk.
Which one is the correct name?
oomg… he looked so hot bk then..
WHAT HAPPENED!! WHYYY
The problem with the after pics is not his nose, it’s his complexion…his complexion in BV was kinda plagued with zits…whhhhyyyy!!!??? But I prefer Kang Mae in BV anyways…
what. this is totally rubbish
i don’t see any diff before and after,he is still a cutiepie to me
popseoul maybe you are the one who need a PS haha
is their any difference? haha. mianhe. i can’t spot the difference. i think it’s the same. XP
i dont know if it’s just me or i dont notice a diff.. ehehe. nway. i agree that he looks better with a baby face, but the guy’s gotta mature too, ne?
oh well. his acting still very good, so i dont really mind the change in image. ^^
WTF?? WHAT CHANGE!! is this like one of those pictures where you have to look at it for hours to see the “hidden image”. I think popseoul may be LOOKING for plastic surgery victims. It’s like a witch hunt but istead of witches there hunting collagen, implants, and double eyelid scars! GEEZ
I agree. He looked fine just the way he was.
actually I don’t see how the nose is different. Only that he seems much more tired and older in the after pictures. He’s trying to look more rough-out manly b4 his time, but it’s not working. He’s the boyish kind. Haggard and tired looking yes but I doubt there’s surgery done.
i used to like him the way he was before~
but now… ugh!!
Omg. I realised he don’t look as good as he was before. But I thought, maybe he’s gotten older? He don’t really look good in Beethoven Virus. In fact, he looked just weird. Now after reading this article, I find it really possible that, he might really have had a plastic surgery on his nose. You see, the “after” picture which shows his side view, is plain weird.
I’m so disappointed T.T
he’s still hot no matter what!! haha!!
)
OMG~ REALLY? AS IN REALLY REALLY REALLY? now, no wonder i thought he looks somewhat kind of different in beethoven virus compared to in doremifasol. i also thought it’s probably cuz he’s gotten older. but it’s not the case eiyh? gyah! his face is already perfect! WHY? WHY? WHY? Oh WHY?~ n it’s so freakingly scary when people thought of plastic surgery as a normal thing nowadays. as if it’s something so… easy… and it’s being misused in such a WROOONNGGG way by celebs. (Esp korean celebs)…
i like his baby face way better =_= well thats too bad
WTF?
YOU’RE BLIND POPSEOUL.
JGS did not have plastic.
It’s the angle of the pictures, stupid.
reynie: the reason he is different is because he got a hair cut and grew sideburns—he longer is going to stick to his old baby image.
Good enough for you?
well you do have him in different angles. but i don’t notice much of a difference. if he looks different, it’s probably because he’s loosing his baby fat - that coupled with an odd preference to look like an ahjussi with his bad haircuts and clothes. even lately- you can tell he’s really hitting puberty (yes i know he’s in his 20s already) with his uneven complexion and plethora of zits and pimple scars. as much as a love JGS, he is not aging gracefully.
ummm so he looks the same to me. just a bit older…such a cutie
….
there’s no differenc. what’s wrong with asian people? haven’t they heard of angles?
WTH?! Jang Geuk-suk knows himself that he’s fricken hot so that’s why he knows he don’t need any plastic crap. This is all a bunch of LIES!!!
dude, the guy had plastic surgery all over his face. Try to denial all u can but any medical pple know and from the pic, his nose bridge is higher than before.
HE’S PLASTIC. NEVER LIKE HIS LOOK BUT KUDOS TO HIS ACTING ABILITY
First of all, actor isn’t a profession to look good. It is a profession to act well. There are so many actors that has gone through plastic surgery to fit the character that they need to be in certain movie or drama because of certain stereotypes that people have for certain looks.
Secondly, I’m so tired of people making a case about plastic surgery that stars went through. Really, we all have certain prejudice against certain type of looks. Now in order to compensate that they go through what’s known as plastic surgery. In a highly competitive auditions, they must sell their look as well as their act to be in every bit of the role that they are auditioning for.
No hating on things that couldn’t be helped.
the only difference is that he looks old! the before he looks in his twenties and the afters he looks in his forties. his nose looks the same. i dont see a difference at all
What did he do? I see no difference, he is still the same gorgeous looking guy. Love him!
what is the different between before and after pictures??
i see no difference either..nothing change
except hes gaining weight that makes him look chubbier and older…
umm… i don’t really see a difference. it’s just different angles…
ah.. so thats what makes him look different!
no wonder.. i’ve been trying to find out.. lol
i see no differences at all
i really don’t see any difference, he just looks tired. or maybe bad skin due to smoking? ?_?
YAH !!! WHY PLASTIC SURGERY ?!?!?! HE LOOKS SO FINE BEFORE !!! ARGH !!! ok, calm dwn…calm dwn….ani how…i’ll try 2 tink a positive side…
he shouldn’t have… T^T
omg get a life people!!!!
its called AGING and MATURING.
wut u see are ugly after pictures obviously.
honestly, all i can see is that he gained some weight. good for him! and as for the skin, might be due to smoking(like someone previously mentioned) but i dont believe it is so. i think it is just the lighting thats making it look bad. I AM NOT DELUDED PEOPLE JUST STATING AN OPINION AND A FACT. because as u all know, hes the face of etude house(a well known cosmetics brand) and therefore taking good care of his skin is a MUST in his contract. And since hes still making CFs for etude house i would say, nothings wrong with his skin. and the nose thing sighhhh…isnt it obvious enough???? his face got wider(maturing) and fat has accumulated on his face. I mean, try comparing your dad’s noses from pictures when they were younger and current ones. bet they dont have the same narrow noses as b4. just stating the obvious. :p
he still looks cute whether before or after!^^
in his K-drama Beethoven’s virus, he really looks mature there.. but hey it’s still him!^^
was it his manager’s fault?
i dont see any differences in all the 6 pictures..i think its just a rumor thats all
oh forget to mention on my previous.he look like the young version of jo in sung..
