The rumors surfaced after the April 14th broadcast of MBC‘s ‘Music Core‘ showed the singer appearing somewhat different than before. Netizens have been claiming that her nose bridge seemed to be taller and her jaw line seemed to be more sleek. They immediately captured screen shots of the singer and uploaded them onto online community sites with captions that read, “Past photos of Taeyeon to the present”.
However, SM Entertainment has stepped forward and slammed all plastic surgery rumors regarding the Girls’ Generation member. On April 16th, a representative of their agency spoke with Star Newsstating, “We find it absurd that these rumors have surfaced when they are currently busy with their schedules.”
Taeyeon was unable to emcee the April 7th episode of ‘Music Core’ due to her participation in the recording of MBC’s "2012 Thailand Hallyu Concert" at the Rachamankha stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
In the photos, Taeyeon does look a bit different from the bottom two photos taken from a while back. Her slightly bleached hair and apparent weight loss make her face look slimmer than her old photos. However, the changed looks seem more of a result of her different style, not so much of the alleged plastic surgery. Fans seem widely split on the accusations. But this is the second plastic surgery rumor involving a Girls' Generation member in the last couple weeks, so fans are questioning if there's other motives behind spreading this unfound rumor. Jessica was also accused of going under the knife late last month.
