The December 16 airing of SBS' 'One Night of TV Entertainment' was definitely entertaining, but also quite controversial. Netizens are furious over a specific segment that the show aired.

The segment in question is 'One Night's Strange Stories' which featured photos of female celebrities, mostly idols, where their bodies were shown to be strangely proportioned.

The first few photos look to be edited photos. These include Wonder Girls' Sohee's legs being separate from the rest of her body, actress Han Ga In with three arms, and Girls' Generation's Hyoyeon with an extremely long arm.

But what netizens are angry about are how Girls' Generation's YoonA and IU were portrayed. The two were shown in photos where their bodies seemed strangely positioned.

YoonA's magazine cover page showed her with her neck turned to the side, and IU's photo showed her leaning forward with her arms on her waist. The reporter stated that both girls looked like their necks were twisted.

The reporter stated, "This is Girls' Generation YoonA's magazine cover photo. But her neck is twisted. It looks like a photo where YoonA's neck is twisted and when you turn her body it looks more natural. When you look at both the original photo and the CG photo, which looks more natural?"

A different reporter stated, "IU has also turned around. If you turn her head to the opposite side, now it looks more comfortable. What happened here? It's really strange."

Korean fans are outraged, commenting that this is a case of sexual harassment. They mention that saying a woman's physical body is the same from the front and back is a type of sexual harassment.

On 'One Night of TV Entertainment's comment page, netizens are demanding for an apology. The show's reps have not given an official statement yet.

What are your thoughts on the matter?

IU revealed that even she has had her moments with her manager.

On the episode of China’s Sohu TV and iQiyi’s “Star From Korea,” aired on August 7, IU says she was a little bit of both when asked, “Are you as harsh to your manager as Cindy is in “Producer?”’

“We’re human too, so it’s inevitable that we see each other’s good sides and also get on each other’s nerves after spending 10 to 20 hours together,” she says. “I also have a quick temper. I used to argue a lot with my ex-manager. I even threw the car key saying I was never seeing him again.”

Meanwhile, IU is...
