IVE’s Wonyoung Draws Attention for Neglecting This Unusual Body Part

IVE’s Wonyoung sparks debate over visible arm hair in latest Instagram post.

On August 16, Wonyoung shared a photo showing off her new Bvlgari watch, a brand she currently models for. Fans immediately noticed something unexpected — Wonyoung’s arms had natural, visible hair.

The detail caught many off guard, given her usual flawless, polished image. Some fans criticized the scrutiny, pointing out how harsh it is to analyze such a small detail.

“Isn’t it kind of psychotic how you’re analyzing other people down to the smallest detail? Why don’t you try analyzing yourself instead?”

“Are there even any girls who shave their arms? Korean girlies have thin hair, so I’ve never seen anyone who did. Most celebrities have arm hair, and it seems like only Japanese girlies do it. Even Chinese girlies and Western girlies don’t.”

“Anyway this post doesn’t seem like it’s criticizing Wonyoung particularly, so why are people so sensitive? She’s just known to be a perfect idol, so people would think that she’d shave areas as visible as her arm. It’s not like they’re saying they don’t want to look at her arm because of it or something.”

“Is that considered a lot? I don’t even think it’s obvious because her hair is so thin.”

“Isn’t it okay to have that much hair? It’s not like she has a lot of hair growth going on, and you can’t even see it unless you look at it carefully.”

As one of K-pop’s most watched it-girls, Wonyoung’s every move is under the microscope. This time, it’s her natural body detail that got fans talking — and dividing opinions.
