JAKARTA – The Korean beauty world is always full of unexpected innovations. One of the latest trends that is currently being discussed is ear filler, a beauty procedure that aims to provide a more lifted and visible ear shape from the front.
This trend is increasingly popular thanks to Haerin, a member of the K-Pop group NewJeans, known for her big ear and small face that resembles a peri.
Reported by VOI from the Koreaboo page on Thursday, January 16, 2025, ear filler is a non-split procedure involving injecting filler materials into certain areas of the ear. This process creates a more prominent and raised ear shape, making it more visible from the front.
In addition to providing aesthetic effects, this procedure can also be used to improve the asymmetry in the ear or achieve the desired shape of the client.
One of the reasons why ear fillers are in demand is because of the effect that makes the face look smaller and proportional.
With bigger and more prominent ears, a slimmer visual illusion of the face can be created. No wonder many people are interested in trying this trend to get a unique and attractive appearance.
The popularity of ear fillers cannot be separated from the influence of Haerin NewJeans. This K-Pop idol has large and prominent ears, which gives the impression of a small face and aesthetics like peri. Its unique appearance has inspired many fans and beauty lovers to try this trend.
In fact, ear fillers are often referred to as ‘fair ear fillers’ because they give the impression of ears like peri, which is now considered as a symbol of beauty in Korea. This trend further strengthens the influence of K-Pop culture in the world of global beauty.
Even though the ear filler is getting more popular, not everyone agrees with this trend. Many netizens feel the obsession for appearance is too much.
“Why does it have to be like that?” asked the netizen.
“I try to imagine my body like that, and it feels weird,” wrote another netizen.
“This persecution is beyond limits. Is it all for the sake of the illusion of a small face?” said another netizen.
However, for those who like innovation in the world of beauty, ear filler is considered a new way to express themselves and correct the perceived shortcomings.
