“Boys Planet” Contestant’s Post-Debut Visual Change Becomes A Hot Topic 

The survival show Boys Planet may have ended last year, but its participants continually remain in the spotlight. As show winners ZEROBASONE promote, other trainees on the show have been able to make their debut (or re-debut in some cases) in newly formed groups.

Recently, one contestant has gained attention following his debut for his change in visuals.

Lee Yedam entered Boys Planet as a trainee under LM Entertainment and was familiar to some for his participation in the program Loud. 

Yedam was a popular contestant; however, he was ultimately eliminated in episode 8, coming in 36th overall. Luckily for fans, the idol was announced as a member of One Pact, a group under ARMADA Entertainment comprising several eliminated Boys Planet contestants.

The group officially debuted in November 2023 with “Must Be Nice.”

On April 14, the group held their first fan meeting in Taipei, where a photo of Yedam sparked online discussion. A netizen shared two images of Yedam with the caption, “Need his surgeon…” bringing up Yedam’s visual changes.

While on Loud, the idol’s face was rounder than his subsequent appearance on Boys Planet, a possible result of weight loss rather than plastic surgery. His double eyelids were also more pronounced in the Boys Planet preview photos.

His visuals for ONE PACT’s debut did not change much, though he appeared “sharper” in concept images.

His recent appearance in Taipei featured an eyepatch, and the star looks almost unrecognizable compared to previous photos.

While the OP’s tweet implies that the star got plastic surgery, netizens have praised his visuals before and after, regardless of how the change happened.
