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?

[Verse 1]
The world's edge
Sharply angled, a troubled outsider (Uh, huh)
The walk, the style
Through the earphones the music of my playlist is all minor

[Pre-Chorus]
You have no idea above your lowered head
What the bright lights are (Shining towards)
It's fine to take your time but I hope you notice, at last
The one and only
You're my celebrity

[Chorus]
Don't forget among the cloudy dark
You're a star painted with a left hand
Can't you see how beautiful
A true uniqueness can be?
You're my celebrity

[Post-Chorus]
(I know you are, are)
(I know you are, are)
(I know you are, you are, are)
Celebrity
(I know you are,...
