KARA‘s Seungyeon confessed that she often wore 5 inch heels in an attempt to appear taller.
On the September 4th broadcast of SBS TV ‘Strong Heart‘, KARA’s Seungyeon remarked, “I think the one thing you need to have as a girl group member is tall height. When you are taller, you look better, your clothes fit better, and your presence is different.”
She continued, “I’m the shortest in the group, so I look as though I have no presence. Because of this, I have always stubbornly chosen to wear the highest heels and have fallen and slipped a number of times, as a result.”
Wearing high shoes has also had a toll on her physical well being. “I started wearing 5-inch heels, and I started feeling pain in my ankles,” she added. “I went to the hospital, where they told me that the high heels were becoming too much for my ankles to bear.”
She explained that she began to think more about whether or not she needed to continue wearing heels when she read an article about how she and Super Junior‘s Eunhyuk were considered to be average height in Korea. “I’m 160cm (~5’3″), and I am of average height for a Korean female,” Seungyeon added. “My friends are just too tall, it’s not that I am short. I decided to think optimistically.”
