“The Glory” Breakout Star Faces Plastic Surgery Allegations

Actress Jung Ji So, most popular for her role in The Glory as the younger version of the lead character, played by Song Hye Kyo, has sparked speculation about plastic surgery with her recent photos.

The actress recently posted some pictures, including newly shot profile images, on her Instagram. Her all-black suit and a black leather jacket really pulled the attention to her chiseled face, drawing immediate public reaction.

Many comments pointed out that she looked completely different from her earlier appearance in The Glory and the Oscar-winning movie, Parasite. While fans praised her for successfully shedding the longstanding “child actress” image, some also expressed concern about her excessive use of cosmetic procedures.

In particular, netizens have often questioned her sharply defined jawline in recent months, with some speculating about a double-jaw surgery. However, many fans have defended Jung from these allegations, arguing that her new look is the result of dieting and styling.

• “Let’s stop meddling with pretty faces.”
• “When you get plastic surgery, that beautiful, natural face and expression disappear. It’s such a shame.”
• “Her face was the prettiest during Parasite.”
• “No, but she had a pretty face…Why…”
• “I saw her in Pro Bono, her lips looked really swollen…Do lips swell when you lose weight… I’m a The Cursed fan, and she was honestly at her absolute best back then.”

Meanwhile, Jung is gearing up for the release of her upcoming movie, Sister, on January 28.
