Singer Lee Hyori shared her candid thoughts on appearance and offered practical advice to Lee Ju-hyang, a former beauty pageant contestant.
On the episode of JTBC's variety show "Love War" aired on the 12th, a 30-year-old couple, both in their early thirties and dating for four years, appeared on the program. They were described as a "Beauty and the Beast" pair.
On that day, Lee Ju-hyang introduced herself as the recipient of the Beauty award at Miss World Korea 2026. She revealed her reason for participating in the pageant, stating, "People around me told me to try out for Miss Korea, so I thought, 'Am I really at that level?' and decided to enter."
In particular, when asked about celebrity lookalikes, Lee Ju-hyang replied, "Lately, people say I resemble Karina. When I was younger, I heard comparisons to Lee Na-young and Han Ye-seul."
Hearing this, Seo Jang-hoon exclaimed, "Oh my," expressing surprise, while Kim Hee-chul also reacted with, "Good heavens." Lee Hyori candidly remarked, "There is a charm unique to women. It's not that you look like Karina," which drew laughter.

Lee Ju-hyang's confidence in her appearance continued. At a pool party she attended with her boyfriend, she stated, "When I wear full makeup, I part the Red Sea. When I walk down the path, everyone makes way for me." She also claimed, "I haven't had any cosmetic procedures. I am a complete natural beauty."
Additionally, Lee Ju-hyang referred to herself as a "public figure" after winning the pageant, showing awareness of public attention. Her boyfriend took charge of her event schedules and photo shoots, even fulfilling the role of a manager.
In response, Seo Jang-hoon pointed out, "I have never gone anywhere claiming to be a public figure." He added, "By making that claim yourself, you might get trapped by it, which could actually hinder your own development and growth."
Lee Hyori also offered Lee Ju-hyang advice on "letting go of the idea of being a public figure" and "creating your own unique weapon rather than relying on being pretty."
Lee Hyori advised, "I know from experience that this youth, beauty, and appearance do not last long. What will you do when your youth fades?" She added, "It would be good to have one thing that I gained through my own effort."
She continued, "I am speaking from experience. Looks fade quickly." She urged, "Don't get carried away just because you placed in the competition now. While doing this work, study a foreign language and build something of your own."
