It’s been a long time, so I don’t remember the surgery price well, but I think it was around 1 million won. In Daegu, there are only a handful of well-known hospitals for double eyelid surgery, and Hong Sung-joo is one of them. But Hong Sung-joo is really case by case. People who turn out really natural turn out natural, and people who get really sausage-like lids get sausage-like lids. I’m a case that ended up with sausage-like lids. So when I see people whose results look natural, I wonder why they made mine into sausage lids when they clearly can make them look that natural.
But ironically, friends who were thinking of getting double eyelid surgery have asked me a few times where I got mine done because they said my double eyelids are pretty. Even to me, the line looks pretty when my eyes are open. But when I close my eyes, it’s way too obvious.
If I could go back to that time, I’d want to go somewhere that makes it look natural instead of Hong Sung-joo. I got it done when I was a student, and I went in thinking it would be enough as long as I got double eyelids, so I didn’t really have my own standards. Anyway, if you’re planning to go and ask for a natural look, I’d recommend it.
