Actress Han Chae-young, now 46, is drawing renewed attention in Korean media over her appearance, according to reports published Monday by Chosunbiz and other outlets. Coverage describes her as the original "Barbie doll" and notes that discussion of possible plastic surgery has not faded, even as she continues to be praised for her looks. Several reports also highlight her proportions.
The reports were carried by Chosunbiz, v.daum.net, Sports Donga, News1 and Top Star News. One item states that Han has denied surgery rumors, while adding that her face looks noticeably different and that she resembles another entertainer. Other coverage focuses on her appearance at 46, saying her looks have stayed much the same and that her "Barbie doll" image remains intact. Another report mentions a smiling photo of her under green trees, and notes that she is continuing her activities after the project "City of Evil."
The material does not include any statement from Han herself beyond the reported denial of the surgery claims. No details were given about when or where the photos at the center of the coverage were taken, and the outlets did not provide specifics on the projects mentioned.
Han's ongoing activities following "City of Evil" are the main thread to follow, along with whether she or her representatives respond further to the renewed speculation about her appearance.
