Shin Bon Sun was ecstatic to reach 100,000 subscribers and smiled, but her face expression didn’t change much. The production team noticed Shin Bong Sun’s peculiar expression, and she asked them if her face looked unnatural. When the production team asked her if she got something done, Shin Bong Sun answered humorously but honestly.
Doesn’t my smiling face look a bit unnatural? I got Botox to celebrate 100,000.

Botox is used to block signals from the nerves to the muscles and, therefore, makes wrinkles relax. Because the muscles become weak, it may cause one to make dramatic facial expressions, making the face look slightly stiff.

Despite her slightly unnatural smile, she kept going with the video, creating a special event for reaching 100,000 subscribers. She made japchae, or Korean stir-fried glass noodles, and baekseolgi, or steamed white rice cake, as a feast.
