Problems in identifying identical twins make for excellent comedy. But in real life it can be quite frustrating, especially if you have two pairs of identical twins married to each other. That’s why some newlywed twins from China have decided to get plastic surgery in a bid to make themselves less identical, and thus avoid the undesirable complications that could arise from failing to tell each other apart, Shanghai Daily reports.
The twins have been confounding relatives and friends after being introduced to each other by a matchmaker. They are now married. Both pairs of identical twins, aged 22, look so alike that it’s apparently impossible to tell them apart, even by their voices. On their wedding day, their guests and even their own parents had a tough time identifying them, checking and double checking that they weren’t marrying the wrong partners.
