LE SSERAFIM’s Kim Chaewon Sparks Plastic Surgery Buzz with Noticeable Nose Transformation
“Is that really the same Kim Chaewon from Produce 48?” This question is circulating widely online as K-pop fans revisit photos and fancams of LE SSERAFIM member Kim Chaewon, pointing out what they believe is a significant transformation in her facial features, especially her nose.
“Back in the early days of Produce 48 and IZONE, she had almost no visible nose bridge, and her nose tip was soft and flat.”
During her debut era, Kim Chaewon carried a naturally cute and gentle image with subtle features. Her nose, in particular, had a low bridge and rounded tip, with nostrils barely visible from the front.
But midway through IZ*ONE’s promotions, fans began noticing subtle changes. Suddenly, her nose bridge appeared more defined, and the overall height and structure of her nose seemed elevated.
After IZ*ONE’s disbandment, Kim Chaewon stayed out of the spotlight for more than six months. When she reappeared as a member of LE SSERAFIM, fans were stunned not just by her upgraded style but also her sharper facial features. Her nose now looked slimmer, with a raised tip and significantly reduced nostril width.
Some fans also noted that her double eyelids appeared more prominent, leading to increased speculation about cosmetic enhancements. One hot topic was a rumored “scar” on her face, which some claimed as possible surgical evidence though there’s no official confirmation.
Online reactions are mixed. While some netizens firmly believe she had procedures done, others argue it could be the result of weight loss, makeup techniques, or camera angles.
- That was her doing…?
- Kim Chaewon during the IZ*ONE days…
- Seriously, if you think about it, she’s the one who actually changed the most, but it’s always Jang Wonyoung, Karina, and girls like them who get bashed lol.
- The male fans will probably come after female idols again now.
- Chaewon is pretty.
Is Kim Chaewon’s transformation just a natural evolution of style and age or did a skilled plastic surgeon play a part? Regardless of the answer, fans seem to agree on one thing: she looks absolutely incredible.
