Wonjin Plastic Surgery Clinic
12F-18F Pagoda Tower, 419 Gangnam-daero, Seocho-gu, Seoul
Overview
1 / 5
Occupying seven full floors of the iconic Pagoda Tower at Gangnam Station — directly accessible from Exit 10 — WJ Wonjin Plastic Surgery (원진성형외과) is one of Korea's largest and most comprehensive aesthetic medical centers. With over 20 resident specialists covering 12 distinct fields, this is not just a clinic — it's a full-service institution for beauty and reconstruction.
Wonjin's strength lies in its depth of expertise. Whether a patient seeks double eyelid surgery, rhinoplasty, facial contouring, jaw surgery (양악), breast augmentation, body contouring, or even stem cell therapy, there is a board-certified specialist dedicated to that exact field. Three full-time anesthesiologists ensure every procedure meets the highest safety standards, while the clinic's own cosmetics brand — WJ Cosmetic — extends the care experience well beyond the operating room.
Under the leadership of Dr. Kang Moon-seok, Wonjin has built a reputation for combining surgical precision with patient accessibility. Its central Gangnam location, comprehensive specialist roster, and active presence across YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and KakaoTalk make it one of the most visible and well-connected clinics in Korean aesthetic medicine today.
Our Core Values
20+ Resident Specialists
Wonjin maintains a full-time team of over 20 board-certified specialists across plastic surgery, dermatology, and anesthesiology. Unlike clinics that rotate visiting doctors, every specialist at Wonjin is a permanent staff member — ensuring continuity of care, institutional knowledge, and consistent surgical quality.
Seven-Floor Mega Facility
Spanning floors 12 through 18 of the Pagoda Tower on Gangnam-daero, Wonjin's facility is one of the largest dedicated aesthetic medical centers in Korea. Seven floors of specialized infrastructure mean separate zones for consultation, surgery, recovery, and dermatology — with no compromises on space or privacy.
12 Specialized Fields
From eyes, nose, and facial contouring to jaw surgery, breast augmentation, body sculpting, reconstruction, and even stem cell therapy — Wonjin covers 12 distinct aesthetic and reconstructive fields. Each field has its own dedicated specialist team, allowing for true sub-specialty expertise rather than generalist coverage.
Triple Anesthesiology Team
Three board-certified anesthesiologists are on staff at all times. With multiple operating rooms running simultaneously across seven floors, this dedicated team ensures that every patient receives uncompromised anesthesia care — with immediate emergency response capability throughout the facility.
Gangnam Station Direct Access
Located directly at Gangnam Station Exit 10 inside the Pagoda Tower, Wonjin offers unmatched accessibility. Patients — including international visitors navigating Seoul for the first time — can reach the clinic without ever stepping outside, making it one of the easiest major aesthetic centers to find and visit.
