Netizens are going crazy over how model-like IVE member Jang Won-young looks.

She is said to be 173cm tall, but netizens think she is taller. On an online community board, a number of photos of Jang Won-young with her long, thin legs and beautiful face were posted.

The idol star's baby face isn't the only thing that makes fans fall in love with her.

Even though she looks normal height if you only look at her small face, the difference is clear when you compare her to other people.

Jang Won-young is showing up in a lot of pictures, which backs up the fact that she is tall.

Rain (185cm)

Jang Sung Kyu (187cm)

Furuya Masayuki (179cm)

Yoon Hoo (172.7cm)

Even so, people continue to assert that Jang Wonyoung lied on her profile and that, based on the heights of other male idols, she must be 180cm tall.

Other netizens quickly responded with comments such as:

"This is the real deal. How can people claim that she is 180 when they are all standing upright and there is such a large gap between them? ㅠ Stop hating on your own oppaㅠ"

"She is extremely thin and her proportions are rock solid. Due to her physique, she appears tall when standing alone"

"Add this"

"I believe that Jang Won-young is between 174 and 175, yes. Since there are numerous male idols in their early to mid-170s today, the average age of male idols has increased"

"Just by looking at this, you can tell that the only reason she looks tall is because her proportions are so off. The most likely number is 170, and she really does look the same"

"You can take 10 cm off the height of male idols"

"Then he is for real"

Lee Kyung Gyu's star-making influence goes beyond Kang Ho Dong, as Hong Jin Kyung shares how he helped her kickstart her career.

On the April 24 episode of KBS 2TV’s Problem Child in House, legendary comedian Lee Kyung Gyu appeared as a guest—and a touching story from the past was revealed.

Hong Jin Kyung surprised everyone when she said, “He’s the teacher for all of us. Personally, he’s the one who helped me debut.” She even pinned a carnation flower on his chest to show her gratitude.

Lee Kyung Gyu smiled and said, “I still remember when Hong Jin Kyung walked up the stairs onto the stage for the first time.”

Hong Jin Kyung then shared her journey to becoming a star. “I joined a supermodel contest, but only the top 3 winners were noticed in broadcasting. I got a special prize, so I had no chance to be on TV."

She continued, "At first, I was just a backup for a show. But somehow, I became a regular the next week. I never knew why."

She added, "I thought the PD gave me a shot. But then one day, I randomly met Kyung Gyu sunbae, and he told me it was actually him who recommended me.”

Kim Sook asked with a smile, “So Kyung Gyu sunbae said nice things about you to the PD?”

Lee Kyung Gyu playfully replied, “Don’t say it in such a childish way,” making everyone laugh.

He then explained more seriously, “The show was Scoop TV Entertainment, and I was pretty much the main MC. When Jin Kyung showed up, I saw her determination and passion."

He added, "While others didn’t seem serious, she really stood out. I told the PD, ‘She seems unique. Why not keep her on the show?’”

Kim Jong Kook chimed in, “So if the main MC said that, doesn’t that mean you basically got her in?”

That made Lee Kyung Gyu happy. He grinned and replied, “Exactly! You speak well. Be like him!”

He added, “After that, Jin Kyung’s career took off. She started doing shows with Lee Young Ja and just kept going.”

Fans are now calling Lee Kyung Gyu not only a top MC, but also a quiet star-maker behind the scenes!
