An influencer famous on social media for resembling IVE member Jang Wonyoung has netizens shocked following the reveal of her real-life appearance.
Recently, screenshots from a YouTube channel appearance by influencer Ever, who has over 38,000 followers on Instagram were uploaded to various popular South Korean online community forums.
The poster commented, "The appearance in the YouTube video screenshots looks completely different from the photos she uploaded herself. She claimed to resemble Jang Wonyoung, but she looks like a totally different person."
They added, "I thought she would look similar to her photos, even if not exactly the same. But seeing her unedited, it's completely different. It's confusing, especially since she makes money through endorsements with such a huge difference in visuals."
In the photos that Ever uploaded to her Instagram page, she boasts a sharp jawline, big eyes, and cherry-like lips. Many fell in love with her due to her doll-like visuals. Some believed she had celebrity-level visuals.
However, her face on the YouTube video screen appeared extremely different, with a rounder face shape and subtly different facial features, which attracted attention.
Many noted that even in videos, she appeared to have edited her features to maintain that slim, doll-like look. Netizens were shocked at the lengths she went to edit her faces. Some netizens commented that looking at her page made them feel inferior, but now that they know she edits her photos, they feel slightly reassured.
Others pointed out that without the filters and editing, she doesn't resemble Jang Wonyoung at all.
Some comments read,
- "Some comments are saying the difference is minimal. Are you guys blind? You call that minimal differences? She looks like a totally different person. The moment I saw her, I thought, 'Wow... This is bad.'"
- "Wow, this case is f*cking shocking."
- "Wow... This whole this is creepy as f*ck."
- "If you look like this different online, don't your real-life acquaintances feel awkward looking at you?"
- "How did she shoot her videos?"
- "This is f*cking bizarre."
- "Wow, she even edited her videos..."
- "I think her real face looks better."
- "There is no way that's the same person."
- "Even natural editing can make someone look like a different person."
- "Wow, she really doesn't look like Jang Wonyoung."
- "I used to feel insecure looking at her Instagram selfies, but seeing this boosted my self-esteem."
