Actor Park Seo Joon Was Told To Get Plastic Surgery Because Of His Appearance

Actor Park Seo Joon confessed that he used to have a complex about his appearance during his early days as an actor.

On December 13, Park Seo Joon appeared as a guest on Yoo Jae Suk‘s tvN talk show You Quiz on the Block.

In the video, Park Seo Joon shared an anecdote from when he first started out as an actor—when beauty standards were a bit different.

My eyes were my biggest insecurity. When I was first starting out, and it was difficult to debut, I received a lot of criticism. At that time, people preferred those with a more distinctive appearance than someone who looked like me. So, I heard comments like, ‘Where did this kid roll in from?’

Yoo Jae Suk chimed in, saying that those comments seemed a bit harsh. However, it didn’t end there. Park Seo Joon said he was even advised to get plastic surgery.

I even received suggestions to get plastic surgery, so my confidence gradually waned. I often thought, ‘Is something wrong with me? Is this not the path for me?’
