Canadian actor Saint Von Colucci has passed after spending $220,000 over the course of 12 cosmetic operations so he could look like BTS star Jimin for an upcoming series.
Saint died Sunday morning at a South Korean hospital after having complications from all the plastic surgeries, his publicist told the DailyMail.
The 22-year-old received operations for jaw implants, a nose job, a facelift, lip reduction, an eyebrow lift, an eye lift, and more. Saint went under the knife to look like Jimin for a role in a streaming show, TMZ reported.
He suffered an infection after receiving his jaw implants in November.
Colucci reportedly went into surgery Saturday night to have them removed, but it didn’t go well. He had to be intubated and died hours later.
The actor spent seven figures for all of his surgeries to play Jimin in the Korean drama, “Pretty Lies.” His publicist says the film wrapped up in December and is scheduled to air in October on a major streaming network.
Saint moved to South Korea in 2019 to join the music industry. His publicist said he was insecure about his looks and thought he wasn’t landing gigs because he “felt very discriminated against his Western looks.”
