On the most recent episode of MBC’s ‘Radio Star’, Co-Ed’s Hyo Young revealed her past as a contestant as ‘Miss Chunhyang’ a Korean traditional pageant.

Hyo Young stated, “In the 1st round, they look at your figure and appearance, while for the 2nd and 3rd rounds, they test your intelligence. In the 2nd stage, they throw questions at you, and if you answer them all without hesitation, you go through to the next round. I received the question, ‘What do you think about girls smoking?’. They don’t judge you on swimwear, but they do get you to wear very slim-fitting skinny jeans and tight white t-shirts. I think that was for them to judge on our body figures.” Check out some pictures from her pageant days, below:






I can so imagine her being in a pageant, she is really beautiful especially in the traditional clothing. Although now I’m left wondering if her twin sister, who is the newest member of T-ara, also took place in these pageants?
