A Korean star confidently responded to indiscriminate criticism over her revealing photos and continued to showcase her self-assured bikini figure while sticking to her principles.
On the 18th, Hong Young Ki posted several photos on her account showing her spending a relaxed time wearing a bikini swimsuit. In the revealed photos, she wore a sophisticated bikini featuring white and blue lines, flaunting a flawless S-line figure without a trace of excess fat.
She smiled brightly with sunscreen cutely applied on her nose and cheeks and relaxed comfortably lying face down on a beach towel, exuding a free-spirited atmosphere. It is hard to believe she is a mother of two sons, as her firm curves and youthful beauty naturally draw admiration.
Her actions are even more striking given the recent controversy over her revealing photos online. Previously, after posting bikini pictures during a trip to Bondi Beach, Australia, Hong Young Ki faced excessive sexually harassing comments and criticism.
When one netizen expressed discomfort, saying, “I wish you’d stop posting revealing photos. Why do you post them with your breasts fully visible?” Hong Young Ki bluntly retorted, “If you don’t want to see it, then don’t. Looks like you want to see it,” choosing a direct confrontation. She also showed composure to her fans, stating, “I’m past the point of being hurt by things like that.”
Hong Young Ki, who first gained recognition through Comedy TV’s Ulzzang Generation in 2009, is now also renowned as a successful shopping mall CEO with annual sales reaching hundreds of millions of won. In February alone, she demonstrated her outstanding business skills by recording about ₩160 million KRW (about $107,000 USD) in sales in just 10 minutes. When a past tax delinquency controversy arose, she sold her residence and paid off the full amount, showing a responsible attitude.
Married since 2013 to influencer Lee Se Yong, who is three years her junior, Hong Young Ki has two sons and passionately pursues both work and family life. Despite indiscriminate judgments and excessive interference directed at influencers, she does not shrink back but maintains her confident values and freedom of expression, earning enthusiastic support from fans.
