MANY TV shows in South Korea are dedicated to radical surgical transformations, yet a new show turns this on its head.
Surgically-enhanced people are being asked to take part in a reality TV show that wants contestants to go back under the knife and return to the face they once had, Netizen Buzz reported.
You must have had a minimum of 10 cosmetic surgical operations to take part.

In the wealthier parts of Seoul in South Korea such a number of operations is commonplace.
For the citizens of South Korea are the most cosmetically enhanced people in the world, more per capita have had “enhancements” than Americans, Italians, Greeks and Brazilians.
Back to My Face, the TV show’s title, is without doubt trying to state that people are beautiful as they are, with no need for enhancements, Global Post reported.
Each episode features four or five young women who’ve undergone 10 or more surgical operations, along with a surgery-addicted man who appeared in the debut show.
Contestants met up before walking on to the streets of Seoul, guided by South Korean comedian Park Myeong-su.
Various activities take place before the surgically-enhanced women realise that they were more beautiful before they started plastic surgery and that their faces had, in fact, become similar to each other thanks to the surgeons’ knifes.
Each contestant then makes a declaration: either they’ll revert back to their old facial structure, stating “back”, or they’ll proclaim “stop,” indicating they are happy with their surgically-enhanced look.
