Jang Young-ran Reveals Reason for Sharing Unedited Swimsuit Photos on "Knowing Bros"

Jang Young-ran revealed the reason why she emphasizes ″no retouching″ every time she posts swimsuit photos on the JTBC variety show ″Knowing Bros.″ On the 542nd episode of ″Knowing Bros,″ which aired on the 5th, Jang Young-ran appeared as a transfer student along with Han Seok-joon, Shin Ki-ru, and Hwang Jae-gyun. That day, she cited having a daughter as an advantage for her trendy fashion sense, saying, ″When I try to wear a swimsuit in an auntie style, she picks out something more modern for me.″ Then, a photo of Jang Young-ran wearing a swimsuit chosen by her daughter was shown in the studio. Upon seeing the photo, Lee Soo-geun expressed skepticism about Jang Young-ran’s figure, and Kang Ho-dong raised suspicions of retouching, saying, ″Isn’t this the paid AI version? She must have paid for it.″ In response, Jang Young-ran emphasized, ″My husband took the photo. It’s really unretouched.″ Regarding why she labels each photo as ″no retouching,″ Jang Young-ran shared a past experience of a Photoshop failure. She said, ″I once got caught retouching a photo,″ explaining that she slightly retouched her hips and posted the photo multiple times, which caused the background building to appear distorted. Afterwards, she faced criticism asking, ″Did the building melt?″ and experienced a ″cyber disgrace,″ leading her to specify that her photos are unretouched to avoid misunderstandings.
