Singer Zhou Jie Qiong (formerly known as Kyulkyung), formerly of the group I.O.I, instantly captivated the public’s attention by revealing a daringly revealing outfit and a fatal visual that completely erased her previous innocent charm.
On the 25th, Zhou Jie Qiong shared updates on her life by posting several photos taken in a dimly lit indoor setting on her social media account, without any accompanying text.
In the photos, Zhou Jie Qiong showcased a bold and experimental styling that she had never displayed before. She wore a black sequin halterneck dress adorned with glamorous jewel embroidery and featuring daring cutouts from her neckline to her chest and abdomen, revealing her toned body without reservation. Her deep collarbone line and prominent navel piercing, added to her flawless and slender figure, maximized her alluring charm. In particular, in a close-up selfie where she gazes directly at the camera with her long, straight hair flowing down, the dreamy smoky makeup and enigmatic gaze harmonize, eliciting exclamations that her “image has completely changed” from her innocent idol days.
Zhou Jie Qiong’s recent unconventional update is garnering even more intriguing attention as it coincides with the news of I.O.I’s reunion, which has recently been heating up the music industry. Earlier, I.O.I (Im Na-young, Chungha, Kim Se-jeong, Jung Chae-yeon, Kim So-hye, Yoo Yeon-jung, Choi Yoo-jung, Kim Do-yeon, and Jeon So-mi) made a surprise return to the music scene on the 19th at 6 PM, releasing their 3rd mini album, “I.O.I: LOOP,” through various online music sites. This comeback, realized a full nine years after their official activities ended in 2017, delivered a special emotional impact to global fans as it marked a reunion commemorating the team’s 10th debut anniversary. However, Zhou Jie Qiong and Kang Mi-na, who were highly anticipated, ultimately did not participate in this reunion activity due to unavoidable circumstances such as pre-scheduled overseas schedules, and IOA is performing their comeback stage as a nine-member group.
