RIIZE‘s Wonbin, a member of SM Entertainment’s new boy group, has recently become the subject of widespread attention. His pre-debut photos went viral, leading to allegations of plastic surgery. However, fans are rallying to his defense, and the debate is heating up.

On August 1, SM Entertainment unveiled the members of the new boy group RIIZE, consisting of seven trainees: Anton, Eunseok, Seunghan, Shotaro, Sohee, Sungchan, and Wonbin. Their Instagram page quickly amassed 500K followers, and Wonbin, hailed as one of the group’s “visuals,” became a viral sensation.

A post featuring Wonbin’s school days photos has collected over 40K views in just two hours. While he’s undeniably handsome, some netizens felt that he looked different from his debut photos. This led to allegations of plastic surgery, with comments such as, “His eye surgery went very well. Please tell me which hospital he went to.”

Wonbin has people in his corner

Despite the allegations, many fans defended Wonbin, emphasizing that his good looks were evident even as a child. They argue that the differences in appearance could be attributed to factors other than surgery. “He looks fine in the pictures. It’s rare to look good in graduation pictures, period. There are many people making up plastic surgery allegations. You guys are too much,” one RIIZE fan commented.

The debate continues to rage, with some netizens insisting on the plastic surgery claims, while many others dismiss them as baseless. “Who cares if he looked different in the past? It’s enough that he’s handsome now and is good at his job,” another supporter stated.

The controversy surrounding Wonbin‘s appearance elicited a passionate response from fans. While the allegations persist, the overwhelming support he’s receiving from fans highlights the loyalty and love people have for their idols. Whether or not Wonbin has had plastic surgery remains a matter of personal opinion, but one thing is clear: his talent and charisma continue to win hearts. – K-Pop News Writer
