Movie actress Kim A-joong (25) is in Hong Kong to promote her smash hit movie “300 Pound Beauty.”
At a recent news conference, Kim said, “While I was filming (the movie), I saw teens who underwent plastic surgery to improve their looks. However, whenever the surgery went bad, the results were very serious.” She added, “Plastic surgery to make yourself beautiful is serious. The procedures are complicated and you need to think very carefully before you get plastic surgery.”
Hong Kong media describes “300 Pound Beauty” as a Cinderella-story with a happy ending that attracted more than 6 million viewers.
However, the story of an overweight woman who transforms into a beauty through extensive plastic surgery has been criticized for promoting surgery, especially to females.
The movie will be released in Hong Kong this month.
