NJZ’s Minji from NewJeans Faces Viral Plastic Surgery Rumors as Photos Spread Online

Minji of NewJeans is facing controversy over rumors of a nose job after side profile photos went viral on Pann.

A post comparing Minji’s pre-debut and post-debut nose sparked heated debate. The post has over 54,000 views and questions if her nose shape change was natural or surgical.

Photos show Minji with a high and smooth nose bridge before debut, but netizens say it looked rounder and softer back then. Recent images show a sharper, more defined nose, fueling speculation about cosmetic procedures.

The viral Pann post reads:

Did Minji get a nose job?
Before debut, her nose bridge was already high and smooth, but it had a softer, rounder look.
After debut, her nose looks sharper and more pointed.
Though, from the front, there isn’t a big difference…

Debate exploded as fans and non-fans weighed in. Some argue the change is from natural growth or camera angles. Others say the sharper look points to surgery.

Netizens shared opinions:

“People saying it’s just growth, lol. Since when does the tip of your nose suddenly stick up because of growth? That’s not growth, it’s the surgeon’s skill improving.”

“She did it.”

“When you’re young, if your nose is pressed down like that, it’s almost impossible for it to naturally grow into such a sharp shape.”

“It’s literally just the angle difference. 100% she didn’t get anything done.”

“No matter how pretty someone is, nobody’s face is 100% perfect. If you want to become a celebrity, you have to touch up something here and there. The difference is just whether it’s a major surgery or a little filler. Fans keep insisting she’s completely natural, but maybe they’re just young. Honestly, since it’s a job where looks matter, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with getting a bit of work done to look prettier or more handsome.”

The conversation is ongoing with no official statement from Minji or NewJeans. Fans remain divided as the photos continue circulating online.
