Accusation of plastic surgery (?)
Just wanna share in case some of you encountered some weird posts anywhere - Apparently (?) Chef Son Jongwon is recently accused with double eyelids plastic surgery. He is accused with having double eyelids surgery because of some videos from his overseas business trip to Singapore recently. In the videos, his eyelids appeared a bit swollen and they said he messed with his monolids and got surgery for double eyelids. What I find very absurd is this accusations making news for several days and some people saying he better focus more on his jobs rather than having plastic surgery. I mean how much more he can focus on his jobs, that man is severely workaholic already, and it's not like he appears in other broadcasts except Naengbu.
I always know how severe lookism in some of their society, especially for celebrities appearance but it's very weird to have this kind of discussion for a chef 😒 Even if he or anyone else have plastic surgery shouldn't be anyone else business..Lookism and nosy mentality, that's very ridiculous.
According to his restaurant guests last week, Chef SJW went to work like usual at both of his restaurants, but with minimal interaction with customers as he was not feeling well, wearing mask and with hoarse voice..His restaurant server informed some customers that Chef SJW had gum surgery due to some inflammation, he's supposedly need to take a break and rest but he didn't, instead he went to work like usual, and head to Singapore after some days. It seems like the swollen from the surgery didn't fully heal yet, and he's very exhausted too, so that's the reason for the 'changing' appearance and double eyelids controversy. Actually he always has double eyelids, some days it's hidden, and some days it's prominent..Having people scrutinizing and criticizing your face (eyes) to miniscule details is very ridiculous for me..
Just a head up for those who are wondering what the heck is the controversy lol..
PS : Chef already back to South Korea and went straight to work upon touchdown. He's probably will go back to Singapore later because it seems like Eatanic Garden will host something related to F1(?) Edit : This F1 related event is just merely speculation from Korean fans as there's Eatanic Garden mock up restaurant there, no further confirmation or verified info so far.
