According to data from the Korean Embassy in China, in 2011, South Korea distributed 1,073 visas to Chinese tourists who went to Korea for plastic surgery. The total number increased by 386% compared with 2010, which means that the number of Chinese plastics going to South Korea has increased nearly fourfold in the past year.
