Baby V.O.X. star Gan Mi-yeon's funny airport encounter with staff

Baby V.O.X. singer Gan Mi-yeon drew laughter after revealing an unexpected anecdote she experienced at the airport.

On the 7th, Gan shared her recent status along with selfies on SNS, recounting an episode that occurred at the airport the previous day.

She began her story by saying, “You know what? Yesterday at the airport, a staff member asked if I was really a celebrity, so I said yes, but Baul, who was behind me, heard what they said next.”

According to Gan, after she walked away, the airport staff reportedly said, “She looks different from how she looks on TV.” Upon hearing this, Gan expressed her embarrassment with a laugh, saying, “I wasn't even wearing makeup.”

Gan added that her husband, Hwang Baul, was the one who overheard the comment and relayed it to her, reacting with, “Ughahaha ㅠ.” She shared the unexpected airport episode in her signature honest and easygoing manner.

However, netizens' reactions were quite different. Fans who encountered the story poured out praise for Gan, commenting, “I think it's because she looks prettier in person than on TV,” “Doesn't that mean she's prettier in real life?” and “She is much prettier in person.”

Ultimately, the comment about her 'looking different from TV' that Gan shared embarrassingly turned into an anecdote that certified her real-life beauty. Since she caught the eye of airport staff even without makeup, the incident served as an unexpected compliment to her appearance.

Gan debuted in 1997 as a member of Baby V.O.X. and was loved for numerous hit songs such as 'Ya Ya Ya', 'Get Up', 'Killer', and 'Coincidence'. Since then, she has steadily engaged with the public by expanding her career into solo singing, acting, and musical theater.

In 2019, she married musical actor Hwang Baul, who is three years younger. Since their marriage, the two have been publicly showing affection while supporting each other's careers.
