Liz IVE: Female idol "makeover" after weight loss, once suffered discrimination

Liz is one of the prominent members of gir.l group IVE thanks to her outstanding appearance and outstanding talent. She has a large fan base no less than Jang Won Young or Ahn Yu Jin.

Liz's real name is Kim Ji Won, born in 2004. In 2021, she debuted in the group IVE and held the position of lead vocalist. She joined Starship Entertainment at the ag.e of 16. Before Liz debuted in IVE, she appeared in Teayeon's "This Christmas" MV.

In 2021, she was officially released to the public by Starship Entertainment as the 4th member of the bo.y group IVE. As the only light-haired member of the group, Liz also impressed by possessing a bright smile with graceful dimples. Not only that, Liz's bright face and high nose make Kpop fans in Vietnam more or less think of actress Do Khanh Van.

Her nicknames are Princess Liz and Princess Jiwon. Her stage name Liz is also derived from the nickname of the character "Elizabeth Bennet" in Jane Austen's novel Pride and Prejudice. Besides, Liz was also in a school dance club and played the piano extremely well.

At the en.d of January 2023, Insight reported that member Liz's (IVE) appearance became a topic of discussion in the online community. The audience thinks that the idol has gained significant weight compared to the time of her debut.

When IVE promoted the song Eleven, Liz was considered one of the outstanding members with an ideal height of 1.69m, long straight leg.s and a slim face. However, during public appearances during this time, the singer showed noticeable signs of weight gain, a round face and a somewhat chubby physique.

In most of the photos taken at a rather 'drownin.g' angle, many netizens left malicious comments, disparaging her appearance or blaming her for not knowing how to manage herself despite working in the idol industry.

However, the truth is not quite as netizens see it. Despite her weight gain, when viewed from other angles, she does not look heavy at all. The series of photos circulating on social media is the product of photoshop or deliberately creates a malicious angle. Many fans expressed outrage that Liz faced criticism just because of her weight, despite her hard work and impressive singing and dancing abilities.

However, just a few months later, Liz made fans stand still with her beautiful, sweet post-weight loss appearance, reaching the peak of beauty that surprised and admired everyone.

It can be said that the female idol had a complete makeover after losing weight, the facial features became more angular, harmonious and attractive. Through newspaper photos, IVE members stand out with excellent visuals, beautiful as dolls. In particular, wearing black hair combined with flat hair further emphasizes Liz's beauty, making her feminine and youthful for her ag.e.

Fans think that Liz wearing black hair is the peak of her beauty like when she debuted but much prettier than when she wore blonde. Previously, she also received many positive reactions that overwhelmed Jang Wonyoung when she appeared at the press conference with black hair.

Liz's personal life story and dating relationship have always been "unknowns" of interest to the media and fans. She has never revealed any information about past and present relationships. Liz is still single and has no intention of starting a relationship. She wants to focus on developing her career with the group IVE more. Besides, Liz has never been involved in any dating rumors.

Liz's fan community has always been at the "top" of IVE with an increasing number. Not only that, her fans are not only in Korea but also in many other countries. However, many fans have expressed their disappointment and anger at the unfair treatment of Liz – the lead vocalist of the group.

Accordingly, in March 2023, IVE returns with a music production called Kitsch. However, fans later criticized the unfair distribution of lyrics and screen time among the members.

Liz, known for her powerful and soulful voice, is only vocalized for 5.8 seconds in the entire song. Moreover, the screen time in the music video is also significantly less than the rest of the members. Fans became even more annoyed when they realized that the other members all had more than 20 seconds to sing, three times more than Liz. It can be said that the idol born in 2004 is the member with the least time to appear and raise his voice in the group.

This isn't the first time Liz has been given a small share of singing time. Specifically, in the song After Like, the lead vocalist of the group only has about 15 seconds to sing. Meanwhile, the rest of the members all had more and Wonyoung was favored by the agency for the most vocals with 30 seconds. Fans have pointed out that Liz is one of the most talented and popular members of IVE, deserving of more recognition and respect.
