Did Kara's Kang Jiyoung really insult Gyuri?

On the September 2nd episode of KBS 2 "National Talk Show Hello," all the members of Kara appeared as guests on the show. On the show, Kang Jiyoung, the youngest member of the group, revealed what she envied about each member of the group.

When the MCs asked her what quality of trait she envied most about the other members of Kara, she answered, "I envy Hara's small face and lean figure. I also envy Nicole's muscles and toned body. As for Gyuri, I envy her confidence." That last part elicited laughter from everyone, as it sounded a little like she was insulting Gyuri for not having another body part that Kang Jiyoung envies. However the youngest member's intention wasn't to insult Gyuri, but in fact to praise her for her confidence.

To this MC Shin Dong Yup said, "It sounds like there is no basis for this confidence." And instead of being upset or embarrassed, Gyuri coolly said, "Jiyoung, take your time and answer the question." Her cool manner of responding to such a statement has made people more attracted to Gyuri.

In this same episode of "National Talk Show Hello," Nicole admitted that she thinks EXO's Kai is cool, and has quickly become a hot topic among the fandoms.
