| Ulzzang is a Korean word that means "best face", and the term is used to describe people who have become popular for their appearances. The ulzzang craze started in South Korea, where some of the most famous ulzzangs can earn celebrity status.
Many ulzzang wannabes post their pictures on websites, where contests are often held to pick the prettiest faces. While many of these people are natural beauties, many contestants also photoshop their pictures and wear tons of makeup. As a result, some of them do not look anything like their pictures in real life.
Here is a Link of some before/after ulzzang transformations. As you can tell, the changes are quite obvious.
I also found the following thread on Soompi and thought I'd repost it here (quite shocking). These are NOT pictures of me lol.

| I wanted to post the challenge, but I guess Starlit beat me to it lol :P
After my last post, it seems everyone thinks Ulzzangs are weird scary doll creatures (which some of them are). Actually though, they're not too different from you and me. After all, just like us, they post pictures of themselves on the internet wearing makeup and hair and circle lenses, etc. My last post was an EXTREME example (note EXTREME) but there are some who are plain normal people, and as we can see from ABB, not everyone who wears circle lenses is an alien.
Helpful Tips
How to look like an ULZZANG in a picture
- big eyes (falsies + eye makeup)
- V shaped chin (angle your face)
- cute and/or ethereal expression
- low quality, pixilated, contrasted picture (use a camera phone or webcam)
- photoshop

You do not need to own circle lens, you don't have to look really weird, anyone can do this challenge.
