The entertainment companies all over the globe have come under scrutiny several times for allegedly altering photos of the artists and enlisting them in physical treatments to alter and enhance their physical attributes to suit a certain visual aesthetic. This practice is also prevalent in the Korean entertainment industry, where idols are subject to diet and treatments that changes how they look over the years.

Recently, MODHAUS, the label that debuted the K-pop girl group ARTMS, came under fire for reportedly altering ARTMS member Jinsoul’s photo for the group’s upcoming comeback. The allegedly unedited photos were deleted, but the fans were quick to save them. The next uploaded photos featured slight but noticeable alterations to Jinsoul’s features. (via Koreaboo)

Fans put both photos up for comparison and found that Jinsoul’s hairline was pulled slightly to give the effect of a smaller face. The lines on her face were smoothed over, her arm was rendered thinner, and her jawline was also made smaller. Fans disproved the agency’s attempt to present a version of the member that concealed her real beauty. They favoured the first photo over the edited one as they felt it showed the real Jinsoul.
