I'm really glad Gyuri didn't undergo plastic surgery (I'm assuming). She's already beautiful as is but honestly not my type haha.
As for Nicole, I completely understand her situation. Being a Japanese but raised in the States almost all my life and now living in The Philippines, my Japanese and Tagalog are rusty as I don't use them much compared to English. Learning new languages are hard especially when you have to learn them in such a short time and having other things to do like training etc. Fighting Nicori!
