		<description>The girl is a real looker alright, no argument on that.  But her acting is just ok, sometimes even considered &quot;dead&quot;.  I&#039;m not really into watching any of her movies/dramas purely because of her acting.</description>

		<description>sorry javabeans :( i promise this is the last comment.. i&#039;m just not one to back down in an argument.. or take a virtual beating without at least atttempting to defend myself...

@ cj,

1. you&#039;ve stated the obvious &amp; reiterated the opposite of my entire point.. that arriving at an empirical fact isn&#039;t a matter of subjective impression but rather objective observation.. i never said that song hye kyo is plastic bc i said so.. but rather the other way around..

2. contrary to your own charge, i&#039;m not so much mifffed by bit for disagreeing with me, as much as merely put-off for implying i&#039;m seeing things because i want to.. he/she is the one who said as much (you can read it above).. which precisely sparked my comment in return..

3. i actually wouldn&#039;t want to imply that people are just plain dumb with my little quote.. you can take it as simply meaning they aren&#039;t seeing what&#039;s in front of them.. nothing more..</description>

		<description>@marcel, has it occurred to you that what you are so sure is artificial can strike someone else as natural?  i mean, just because you&#039;re convinced she&#039;s plastic doesn&#039;t mean she is.  the certainty you feel can be felt by someone else for the opposite reason.

and i don&#039;t think you should be miffed at other people disagreeing with you when you&#039;re calling them &quot;blind&quot; and insinuating they&#039;re dumb for not noticing.  you&#039;re doing the same thing you accuse others of doing to you.

btw, i don&#039;t know if she&#039;s plastic or not and i don&#039;t care, but people&#039;s insistence on knowing for sure either way is silly.</description>

		<description>@ bit,

before i call it a day from arguing this ridiculous issue once and for all.. it seems to me that people just don&#039;t notice &amp; would rather believe the ideal.. which is lucky for her.. 

i just see what i see.. of course she is extremely pretty.. but my point is that those features appear artificial now..  

i&#039;m feeling a bit miffed at the suggestion that i&#039;m closed-minded &amp; seeing things because i &quot;want&quot; to.. so i say let the blind continue leading the blind..

I don&#039;t think it&#039;s a stretch to have perfect features naturally it maybe rare but not impossible. I don&#039;t think that in of itself is proof of anything. So far the evidence does not lead me to believe she&#039;s had anything done. It looks to me her features aren&#039;t a recent development and she&#039;s had them since she was a child. So I don&#039;t see what you&#039;re seeing. There could be a simple explanation...that she is just very very pretty.

Could it be that you&#039;re seeing changes because you want to see them? Anyone can take 2 dissmiliar photos and point out differences...but does that prove surgery?

I know alot of kcelebs have surgery but I hope you will keep an open mind and judge people on a case by case basis and really look at the evidence. That&#039;s what I will continue doing.

In the end I guess Song Hye Kyo&#039;s great beauty maybe her greatest liability. :/</description>

		<description>@ bit &amp; belleza,

yup.. it was like fighting in the nuclear 3rd world war on that thread.. popseoul almost caused a virtual armageddon over the issue of plastic surgery.. 

for me it&#039;s just something about most kcelebs i see onscreen &amp; not just song hye kyo..  i have seen her childhood &amp; school pics &amp; wouldn&#039;t deny her natural born beauty.. she&#039;s always had handsome features.. but i just noticed recently in some of her close-ups she looks like she now has the telltale nose, lip &amp; cheek implants as well as enhanced double-eyelids.. it&#039;s very subtle but even in the above pic you can see how all of her features look a little tooo perfect O_o

at the end of the day.. i understand she&#039;s an actress &amp; she&#039;s gotta do what she&#039;s gotta do to survive in the industry.. &amp; i&#039;ll appreciate her more for her acting ability than anything else.. but being able to notice the changes in a k-actor&#039;s facial features tells me i&#039;ve been consuming way too much k-entertainment for my own good O_O</description>
