Actress Min Hyo Rin will continue the legal battle with the plastic surgery clinic that used her name to advertise without permission.

Judge Jung Hyun Shik from the Seoul Central Court District ruled that Min Hyo Rin's name was "used without permission for a nose job advertisement," and that plastic surgeon Dr. Yoon needed to pay Min Hyo Rin $3000 in compensation for the damages caused.

However, a source from Min Hyo Rin's management agency said, "We are planning on appealing because we cannot accept the verdict. The amount of money is not the issue, but if this is the verdict on this case, who will pay for models after this?"

The source then stated, "From the perspective of the agency, it is bad for one of our actors to be mentioned in this type of news, but we will fight until the end to reclaim the rights of celebrities."

In 2011, Dr. Yoon posted an advertisement with the slogan 'Make your nose like Min Hyo Rin' on his hospital's homepage and on an online newspaper so Min Hyo Rin filed a lawsuit for $80,000 in damages.
