In today’s world, it’s often hard to tell if a photo has been edited or not. Some people are experts at photo manipulation, leaving no obvious signs, while other times the edits are more subtle.

The K-Pop industry and its idols are no exception. Sometimes it’s the idol’s company behind the editing, and other times the idols themselves are the culprits.

Recently, an older picture of KISS OF LIFE’s Julie caught attention because of her incredibly tiny waist. Many people commented on the photo, expressing awe and envy over her figure. One forum post even exclaimed, “I’m not joking, Julie’s waist is as big as her thigh!”

But if you know a bit about photo editing or human anatomy, it’s clear that the image has been photoshopped. Julie seems to be missing several ribs, and her right elbow appears unnaturally enlarged.

There’s even a strange, half-disappeared strand of hair across her chest.

What’s frustrating is that Julie already has an amazing body, as seen in plenty of other unedited images.

It’s disheartening that someone with such a great figure feels the need to alter herself so much.

Body image issues are a major problem in the K-Pop industry and fandom, and young fans may compare themselves to the unrealistic version of Julie in the edited photo.

Let’s hope Julie realizes how incredible her natural figure truly is!

Actor Lee Min Ho recently shared an unforgettable and embarrassing moment from his early career, revealing how he became a “falling star” at his first Baeksang Arts Awards.

On the December 25th episode of You Quiz on the Block (Episode 274), Lee Min Ho made a guest appearance and reflected on his rise to fame.

The actor, known for his iconic role as Goo Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, won the Best New Actor award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, but it wasn’t just his victory that grabbed attention.

Lee Min Ho recalled, "I was attending the Baeksang for the first time, and I was so excited. Since I wasn’t going as Goo Jun Pyo, but as Lee Min Ho, I styled my hair in a perm and was ready to go." However, things took an unexpected turn when he tripped and fell on the red carpet.

He sighed, recalling, "That day, I fell. I fell and created so many memes. Even now, I look back and think, 'How did I walk that quickly on the red carpet?'"

Laughing at his own clumsiness, he admitted, "I was moving at the speed of light, no composure, no focus. Honestly, more than the joy of winning the award, that day was chaotic and so embarrassing for me."

Though his win was a highlight, Lee Min Ho humorously shared that the incident of tripping overshadowed the excitement of his achievement.

It’s safe to say that while the fall became a funny meme, it also became a lesson in humility for the actor, and a moment that fans still remember to this day.
