2026 Miss Korea winner Woo Seo-yoon (우서윤) faced online speculation about plastic surgery after comparisons of her past and current appearances spread on social media. 2025 Miss Korea winner Jung Yeon-woo (정연우) posted a long message saying such debates undervalue contestants’ efforts and the pageant’s purpose. Jung emphasized Miss Korea judges consider private one-on-one interviews, current affairs presentations, self-introductions, and talent performances—not just looks—and criticized people who quickly assume surgery without understanding (SNS: social media). She called for more respectful discussion rather than focusing solely on perceived physical changes.
