Kwon Mina, formerly of the group AOA, is drawing sympathy after claiming she suffered burns during a dermatological procedure. The case recalls actress Han Ye-seul, who previously reported a similar medical accident.
On the 8th, Kwon Mina posted a long message on her social media revealing the damage. She said, "I wanted to keep my appointments and schedules looking pretty, so I received 600 shots of Shurink lifting," and explained the situation at the time: "When I opened my eyes I felt a tearing pain in my skin, my skin had been lifted off by burns, and there was discharge and blisters."
She went on, "I was told nothing happened during the procedure. They mentioned the possibility of a defective tip, but then what was the cause?" raising questions. She also raised procedural issues, saying, "I never received a sedation consent form, a procedure consent form, or information about side effects."
Kwon Mina said, "The diagnosis is second-degree deep burn and the facial area is in serious condition," and lamented, "I cannot yet know the course of treatment and scarring, so I am despairing. The financial damage from canceled schedules is also large." She added that she experienced a panic attack and that her mother cried when she saw her face, saying the psychological pain is also severe. She said the matter has proceeded to a lawsuit after disputes with the hospital.
When the news spread, the case of actress Han Ye-seul, who previously experienced a medical accident, resurfaced. Han Ye-seul publicly disclosed that a medical accident left scars after a lipoma removal surgery and shared her treatment process. At the time the hospital acknowledged negligence and apologized, and she underwent treatment at a burn specialty hospital while working toward recovery.
In response to the succession of celebrity medical accident issues, netizens have sent messages of support such as, "How scary and difficult that must have been," "I hope she receives good treatment," and "Health is the most important thing." Above all, voices wishing that, following Han Ye-seul, Kwon Mina also heals well from her wounds and returns to activities in good health are continuing.
