Which female idols have the best facial features, as ranked by plastic surgeons?


There are plenty of examples of plastic surgeons grading idols' faces as a whole - but what about if you had to pick out the idols who had the best in only one particular area?

Nine of Korea's most famous plastic surgeons came together to rank female idols based on four particular facial features: 1. Face shape, 2. Eyes, 3. Nose, and 4. Mouth.


1. Face Shape


KARA's Hara ranked at a proud #1 with her face shape. Plastic surgeons pointed out that she had the perfect egg shape - round on top that narrowed down to a perfect point on the bottom. 2NE1's Dara ranked second, and f(x)'s Sulli was third.

2. Eyes


Davichi's Kang Min Kyung was ranked #1 by the plastic surgeons for her eyes, with large eyes that were the perfect shape and emphasized her femininity, sexiness, cuteness, and gorgeousness all at once. Girls' Generation'sYoonA ranked second with her famous deer-eyes, and miss A's Suzy took third place.


3. Nose


Kang Min Kyung was ranked #1 also for her nose! The surgeons ranked her #1 because her nose bridge was straight and high, but the end of her nose was rounded out cutely, so her nose looked very natural. Girl's Generation's Yuri got #2, and 4minute's HyunA came up #3.

4. Lips

Hara was crowned #1 again for her perfect lips because her mouth was shaped such that when she smiled, all of her teeth showed evenly. Sulli and HyunA followed up at #2 and #3 respectively.


Do you agree with the rankings?

A representative of DOUBLE.M said, "Sooyoung will be the 2013 F/W muse, continuing from last season. She fits well with the DOUBLE.M image because she's modern and sophisticated, and she also had a good attitude by wearing DOUBLE.M products.
