You may or may not have seen the recent article going around about a former model in South Korea who -when refused further facial procedures by her doctors- took to injecting what was essentially cooking oil into her face, which resulted in the most unfortunate BLUMPKIN PUMPKIN Halloween hot mess you ever did see!
According to visual artist Ji Yeo’s website; in 2010 South Korea was the country with the world’s highest per capita rate of cosmetic plastic surgery.
You can see Yeo’s NSFW photographs -subtitled ‘Beauty Recovery Room’– after the jump, which were taken in attempt to highlight the unnecessary risk of multiple generally-anesthetised cosmetic procedures which have become the norm for women in South Korean society.
Ji Yeo also partook in a performance where she appeared in public in nude-tone undergarments with a sign that read:
“I want to be perfect. Draw on me. Where should I get plastic surgery?”
My suggestion [?]…she should get her head removed and give it to that poor Mrs Pumpkin headed lady.

Shannon, Number One you are a dumbass for saying something like “Orientals”. Number two it’s severe, unless you are a Waygook who is being way too ironic for me. I have fallen victim to S. Korea’s gross ways (was fired for having an artificial leg). Anyway you and S. Korea are gross.
This is so sad. There are things I’d love to change about myself (probably nose job) but no one should hate his/herself this much. This is a huge problem in South Korea and it makes me really sad that so many girls feel this way. Asian women are beautiful to me; I wish they could see themselves the same way.
Orientals have SEVER self hate……
