• "LOL, what happened to her arm?" — Netizens roast Starship Entertainment for funny editing error in IVE's backstage pic

    Netizens are having a good laugh over Starship Entertainment's photo-editing blunder.

    Recently, IVE shared a photo on their official Twitter account after their world tour concert. Eagle-eyed netizens quickly noticed something odd about the picture.

    Upon closer inspection, fans spotted a peculiar mistake. Gaeul's arm seemed to have vanished halfway, blurred into nothingness.

    Fans found this oversight quite amusing and felt a bit embarrassed for Starship Entertainment, who apparently missed this mistake.

    In the comments, fans and netizens couldn't help but share their reactions:

    "What were they trying to do?"

    "LOL, what happened to her arm?"

    "Can't believe this is from their official account."

    "Starship strikes again."

    "So embarrassing…"

    "Seems like they really edit their photos."

    Some netizens speculated:

    "Maybe they were trying to edit their skin and made a mistake."

    "Who was responsible for this?"

    "I don't get what they were trying to do with the photo."

    "LOL, were they trying to make everyone's bodies fit perfectly?"

    "Why did they need to edit that part?"

    "Were they trying to remove something?"

    "Why edit a backstage photo?"

    "Even Wonyoung's arms look strange."

    "They should have double-checked."

    "Sometimes members stand awkwardly, and they try to fix it with Photoshop."

    "Maybe they were making everyone's bodies and faces look better."

    "Maybe Night Mode caused the blurriness, but they should have checked."

    What are your thoughts?

  • Lee Kyung Gyu secretly helped Hong Jin Kyung debut on TV and she didn’t even know for years

    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!
