Korean Actress Lee Da Hae Admits To Having Plastic Surgery


Korean star confessed she has got a plasic surgery


When Lee Da Hae recently appeared on a celebrity talk show, she was asked whether she had any work done to her face. For the first time, she admitted that she had indeed undergone plastic surgery.

When the host, Moon Hee Jun, expressed his surprise at learning that she had, she responded, "Please continue to think like that.
When Moon said that he thought it was really well done and it was hard to tell, the actress laughed and thanked him.

Her on-air admission ended years of speculation about whether or not she had plastic surgery. The speculation extended beyond the borders of Korea. Because of her popularity in China, a prominent Chinese news site even commented on it.

It was easy to see that something about her appearance had changed. Fans compared pictures of the star of the KBS drama "Iris 2" with earlier pictures and were sure the changes could not be accounted for by makeup or losing weight.

"I was originally fat and went on some crazy diets," said Lee Da Hae. "But I did have some remodeling done."

"Some is an understatement," said one netizen in response to that quote by the actress.

When you compare Lee's earlier photos with her more recent ones, it looks as if, at the very least, the lower half of her face was slimmed down through a procedure known as jawbone reduction. This procedure involves shaving a section of the jawbone away to make the jaw less square and the shape of the face more oval. Fans speculate that her cheeks were also filled out, possibly with Botox, and the bridge of her nose seems higher than it used to be.

Lee is only 28 but it's not unusual for women her age to have plastic surgery in South Korea. The nation has the highest plastic surgery rate in the world, with 33 percent more surgeries performed each year than the U.S. and some have expressed concern that young South Korean women all want to achieve the same look.

Good bye Eye Bags

Dark circles, eye bags can be removed by surgical or non surgical treatment.


Eye bags, dark circles or puffiness under the eyes can cause a lot of stress. Not only does it make us look tired and old, it also makes us feel ugly. However, many people have eye bags as it comes naturally as we age. Sometimes we can get rid of them by getting enough sleep, drinking enough water and eating fresh vegetable and fruits. But if we constantly hear questions like "are you tired?", "are you not feeling well?" or "what happened to you?" although we are feeling completely good, maybe it's time to declare war to our puffy eyes.

There are several ways to remove eye bags permanently, surgical or non-surgical. The non-surgical procedure involves injection of body fat or filler while the surgical method requires the surgeon to cut the inner part of the lower eyelid using laser and remove the fat. By this method, which is painless, no scar will be visible after healing. The patient receives local anesthesia and can leave the clinic about 1 hour after the surgery (it is recommended to bring big sunglasses to cover the bruises after surgery).

However, due to the effects of the anesthesia, it is recommended to have someone help you get home safely. Driving after the surgery is not allowed. If you choose to use DocfinderKorea's service, a friendly personal case manager will assist you to and from the hospital and take care of you after the surgery. This service is of course free of charge.

Eye bag removal is a surgery done routinely by Korean plastic surgeons and therefore often done additionaly to other plastic surgeries which require general anesthesia such as breast augmentation.

Spacious Breast Augmentation


This breast augmentation is so natural 

No more artificial feeling breasts

With traditional breast augmentation surgery, the typical appearance of breasts resembles an overturned bowl, 
with almost no room for the implants to move around. 
This lack of space makes the shape of the breast very operative-looking and not natural. The surgical method that overcomes this kind of limitation is the `Free Space Breast Augmentation Concept’


1. Creates a glamorous and natural figure
2. Creates enough space for the implants to move around freely Surgical Method


Surgical Method


1. The subfactoral (Dual plane) augmentation method is used with smooth CoGel implants
2. For a natural feeling, CoGel implants are placed underneath the muscle and above the ribs.

Modern Cancer

Angelina Jolie had a preventive double mastectomy to decrease the risk of her developing breast cancer. Docfinderkorea can help woman in this trouble to take a test or a surgery.

Most people have cancer in their surroundings. Let it be an aunt, a grandfather, a cousin, a friend or even a parent. Yet, many of us associate cancer with death. Despite our efforts to live a healthy life, we are aware of the fact that cancer can strike any of us at any time.

Indeed the number of people diagnosed with cancer is rising. According to the Korean Ministry of Health and Welfare, the number of patients diagnosed with cancer was 101,772 in 2000. This number almost doubled to 202,053 in 2010.

The good news is that in Korea, the survival rate for various cancer types is one of the highest in the world. This is due to the latest medical technology and expertise in this field. Statistics reveal that the five-year survival rate was 64.1% between 2006 and 2010.

Young people live at greater risk of late cancer detection because they usually don't get a regular health examination like older people over fifty years of age do. specially if there's a history of cancer in your family, you should do a health examination once a year. This case applies to actress Angelina Jolie whose mother died of cancer. She carries a mutation of the BRCA1 gene and therefore had a preventive double mastectomy to decrease the risk of her developing breast cancer. In order for us to consider the same decision, we must first learn if we also carry a mutation of the BRCA gene. This can be done by a blood test.

Cancer is universal around the globe. Breast cancer in Korea doesn't differ than breast cancer in Indonesia. However,  medical technology does. Possessing the only Proton Therapy Center in Asia, Korea is among the best countries for combating cancer.

DocfinderKorea can help you in deciding which preventive steps to take in case there is cancer history in your family. For people already diagnosed with cancer DocfinderKorea will assist you personally to a specialized hospital in Korea. By sending us your inquiry, you have made the first step to improving your health.

YG looks to China

Will Smith and YG Family 


With the continued global success that Psy has seen since his “Gangnam Style” music video went viral, as well as the success of Big Bang’s first world tour last year, management at the K-pop stars’ local talent agency YG Entertainment is reportedly looking to China as the next big market for its artists. 

As the second most profitable entertainment agency in Korea after S.M. Entertainment, YG is looking to expand internationally, trusting that China will be the next big market for K-pop. 

“We now have more confidence after Psy’s global phenomenon and Big Bang’s world tour. So probably we can put more resources and invest more into the Greater China market, which we believe will be the next big market next to Japan,” Simon Choi Sung-jun, YG chief operating officer, said in an interview with Hong Kong’s the South China Morning Post. 

While approximately half of YG’s revenue is currently generated from international activities, mainly in Japan, Choi said the agency planned to open up an office within the year, in either Beijing or Shanghai, that is dedicated to promoting YG artists within the Chinese music market through concerts and other events.

Psy’s first global hit, “Gangnam Style,” landed the entertainer multiple Guinness World Records, including being the most viewed video online, the most “liked” video online and the first video to receive 1 billion views. “Gangnam Style” has been viewed more than 1.5 billion times in less than a year and has accumulated nearly 7.5 million “likes” as of Wednesday afternoon.

Acupuncture reduces wrinkles

Non surgical plastic surgery is common in Korea.
Anti aging treatment can be a pretty good option whose people don't like take a surgery.  

Will acupuncture be able to substitute Botox someday? A study found that acupuncture can reduce wrinkles and blushing on the face.

The research team led by Cho Jin-hyong, a Korean traditional medicine doctor at Kwangdong Oriental Hospital in Seoul, said that plastic acupuncture, or acupuncture used for skin therapy, is effective for reducing such symptoms. The thesis was presented in the “International Congress of Oriental Medicine.”

Some traditional medical clinics in the country have been using the automated micro-needle therapy system (AMTS), where a very thin needle makes multiple holes on the skin. “In these holes, skin cells are replaced by new ones during the recovery period. It is reported that skin condition such as flush and melanin becomes better by this procedure,” the thesis explains. Plastic acupuncture helps the circulation of blood and vitalizes collagen and elastin.

The research team applied plastic acupuncture to 18 patients who had deep wrinkles from the nose to the tip of lips, or flush. After a month, they found that the pigment on their cheeks that exceeds the person’s average level of melanin decreased by 16.88 percent on average — which means the skin color has become brighter. The facial blush also decreased by 18.61 percent on average.

It also improved moisture content of the skin and wrinkle problems. The level of moisture in the skin increased by 16.82 percent, and the extent of the deep wrinkle between the nose and the tip of the lips narrowed by 3.45 percent.

The research proved that plastic acupuncture is effective in treating facial blushing and wrinkles. It is estimated that the fibroblast is activated and the synthesis of collagen is induced by diverse growth factors during the recovery from acupuncture,” Cho said.

We will continue researches and clinical tests to improve scientific verification of the Korean traditional medicine,” she added.

Hallyu's 10th year in Japan to be marked

Famous Korean drama stars 


In commemoration of the 10th anniversary of the advancement of hallyu in Japan triggered by “Winter Sonata,” Japanese media outlets are planning to carry out various projects.

According to the Korea Creative Content Agency (KOCCA), they recently set up an executive committee toward that end.

They announced a package of programs during a recent symposium held at the KOCCA building with the theme “Vigor to hallyu! The prospect for hallyu market from the perspective of Korea and Japan.”

The committee comprises of major broadcaster TBS and content providers SPO, Pony Cannon, and Kyodo News Agency, and Kinma Junbo, a cinema media.

They plan to conduct voting on the popular hallyu dramas by hallyu fans in Japan starting from late June. The voting will continue for three months and the results will be used to select the top five works and three best actors and actresses to be announced around the end of the year.

It also plans to hold a ceremony where the selected celebrities will attend.

The committee will attempt to have TBS and other cable channels rebroadcast hallyu dramas and publish hallyu-related books.

Besides the firms which are part of the committee, it will also seek to invite some 30 broadcasters, and advertisers, and eventually increase the number of participating companies up to 100.

“Hallyu is not politics. It is a precious cultural exchange at the civilian level. We are determined to build up strong trust so that the hallyu road can continue,” said Ushio Kaski, head of SPO’s Seoul branch.

“Though hallyu has seen steady progress through such dramas as “Winter Sonata” and “Daejanggeum” (Jewel in the Palace), there has been a growing need for a big hit these days,” he said.

He cited the need to produce works that appeal to youngsters in Japan and form an environment favorable to producing new content.

SPO has been importing hallyu dramas into Japan starting with the purchase of “Jungdok” (Addiction) starred by Lee Byung-hun, “Gung” (Palace), and “City Hunter.”
