Song Hye Kyo & Kim Tae Hee’s secret revealed!

According to their official profiles, Song Hye Kyo is 161cm tall and Kim Tae Hee is 163cm tall. Yeah right, maybe after wearing their 7 cm heels and adding a couple of centimeters here and there, but who are they trying to kid? These two might have the clearest skin ever, but they are not over 160cm and we’ll show you why.
Let’s start our height calculation by taking Yu Ji Tae and Jung Woo Sung’s height of 186 cm as our starting point. Song and Kim look at least a head or two shorter than their male co-stars and celebs are known to have small faces, so we’ll subtract roughly around 20 cm. So Song and Kim is about 166 cm tall with their heels on.
Then if you subtract the height of their heels which usually ranges anywhere from 7cm to 10cm, Song Hye Kyo and Kim Tae Hee are around 156-159cm tall – not over 160cm! Keep in mind that our calculations were based on very conservative estimations. If you take a look at other height calculation works, they turn out to be a lot shorter.
Based on this work by one savvy Korean netizen, Kim Tae Hee is around 155cm even with her 7 cm heels on!
Based on this picture, Song Hye Kyo and comedian Song Eun-i are the same height and Song Eun-i is 155cm tall.
We know that it’s very common add a couple of centimeters to celeb’s height and subtract a couple of kilograms from their weight, but don’t over-do it to the point that the discrepancy is so obvious.
POPSEOUL! 
i am one of kim tae hee fan.i think that she is very cute when acting the drama love story in harvard.i feel that i want to kiss kim tae hee
i love kim tae he and song hey keo. they are so beautyfull and so cool and hot womans. i think that high is not importing. begause they are really good acresses.
KTH and SHK might not tall as most korean girls.but,remember one thing.they given talent in acting and that enough.
I’d just like to point out that wearing 7cm heels does not mean you gain 7cm in height. I don’t quite remember how to explain it properly, but the center of gravity is roughly in the middle of your foot, and that’s where height is measured, so whatever height your foot is there, is how much added height you will have, or something like that anyway! Basically, you will get roughly half of the heel height in terms of actual height, so 10cm heels will give you like 5cm height. 🙂
Totally agree on this…from own experience with heels that I wear…7cm heels only give you about 3cm height
It doesn’t matter that much anyway, we all know they exaggerate, adding couple cm on to actress height and less on the weight…but they are actress, in the eyes of audiences they need it that. I do know that and don’t care much.
These actress are lovely and that all matters.
,.,duh who really cares about their height?
,.,they actresses not a basket ball player or what!!!
,.,the eye opping is also KIM TAE HEES’s one asset
,.,try watching her in love story in harvard i’m sure you’ll be ashamed of your self saying that!!
,.,acting of KIM TAE HEE? too bad? same expression?
,.,uhuhuh u just dont know how to appreciate a good acting!!!
,.,bwahahaha
It’s true?? dat hyekyo’s height is only 159cm??
freaks..
they both still have sexy legs.
People, lets not get too worked up about this article on the height of these 2 actresses. I dont think they were trying to put them down but just saying that they are quite short and cute because most korean actresses are mostly around 170cm.
I am short and this article has made me feel more better about my height.It tells me that even celebrities are short but still very beautiful!
I care less about people’s height.I am a teacher and I’m only 150cm tall on flats but I have to write on my class’s white board which reach on top of the ceiling so I only manage to write on half of the entire board. But still my students are able to see clearly what I had written down. Don’t measure someone based on their beauty or height or how much they weight, but it’s what they shine on (show themselves) that’s count so much today. Don’t be a fake mannequin (Barbie doll anyone??!!)
hey
they two are very pretty and they have their attraction.
If they were short,what can they do with their height.
They cannot do anything but they can wear heels.
It is not their fault. They are acting very nice and have a cute smile. I love them if they were short or not because they have a nice acting.
I’m a 6’1 tall man anyway they’re short but .oh well song-hye-kho is cute hahaha
KOreans keep claiming they are tall. Why is it the pretty ones are short??? All the tall koreans are not good looking at all. Koreans claim they are tall, so does it mean that it is true the the south koreans are mixed with other asian ethncity to look pretty???
Hey, they still are gorgeous. Just because you have height, it won’t mean that you are fiine. Some models are like 5 feet 11 and have the longest torso’s and bo curves. Besides, that is what heels were made for!
i dont care much about their height..long and slim legs are pretty, but the face matters the most to me 🙂 and so far, they have the prettiest faces i know ^^
koreans celebrities are 99% plastic. kim tae hee got her eyes done, forehead implant, and a little bit nose narrowing at the tip.
Koreans also like to bleach their skin and many do so many eyelid procedures to get their eye widen up.
no actually.
havent u heard of pre puberty n after puberty/
skin on girls is darker than boys in puerty but lightens when their older like taylir swift was darker now shes lighter see.
nn shes is not fake 99 percent not on 61 percent mate ger your stupid facts ryts n i suggest you stop getting obsessed with korea
Nobody perfect,but KTH and SHG have beautiful face.
I think kim hee sun probably only did her teeth and repairs her droppy eyelids.
she didnae have droppy eyelids leave korea alone you freak get a life
I believe kim tae hee is about 165. VERY VERY SURE
Song hyegyo, could be 159 or 160. VERY SURE AS WELL
they cant be 155, its too fcuking short
I am 153 and i can see
If beauty is measured in heights. The world would be so full of them. But Lo! beauty is so uncommon..
Not everyone is beautiful yet, everyone can be beautiful. Some beautiful, some extremely beautiful, some painfully beautiful, some terribly beautiful, while some are just “Godsend”. Song hye kyo I think is “Godsend”.
Bottom line: Even if beauty is measured in heights… there will be someone who is still extremely beautiful without it.
So, how can anyone define beauty? It’s Indescribable!
you must be kidding..u can’t simply measure height from a distant view, especially from pictures…thsi has been a long time issue..
whatever their heights, I love and like them so much. they two are really lovely, charming and beautiful.They are the most beautiful girls in korea. I accept it.How about you?
both had some comestic plastic surgeries. 98 korean celebrities had comestic surgeries, but these two probably less than others like Park Si Yeon, Kim Ah Jong (200 pds beauty), and so on.
leave korea alone. not 98 its 61 percent. they had not plastic surgery am even more prettier than them n i haven’t had surgery
i don’t really care if they appear shorter than what people have come to expect. critics just don’t know how to appreciate a good performance. try watching some of their movies & please see for yourself. for me, height doesn’t really matter as long as they’re both good in everything. i admit to myself that I’m also short in size & i just want everybody to know that there are also beauty in short people.
Who cares about their heights..For me, their acting skills are most important and please bear in mind that heights are not control by you.
Kim Tae Hee got forehead implant, a bit of nose job and eyelid surgeries. There is proof plastered all over youtube. You can tell her eyes are wider and bigger and her crease folds are wider than before. She also have skin and fat remove from her eyelids.
As for the other gal, it looks like she got nose job.
people change you’re so stupid leave korea alone.
n double eyelids come on later in life for some people check it its real on a doctors site n everything.
dont judge them okei,,,
they are still good actressess,,,
are you just insecure???
im sorry,,by the way they dont deserve t be criticized so much like that,,they act so good,,and do not judge them by their heights,,do their heights bother you???do not be so pathetic on judging them..its so unfair for them….
There is more than meets the eye…. People must learn to look beyond what is outside and start looking at what the person really has… In my opinion they are both great actresses and their height isn’t that big of a deal, if they are tall its only a plus factor… A good actress doesn’t just stand there in front of the camera and look pretty the actress must have something special… its like a pretty gold vase which is only gold plated lol… wouldn’t you prefer something that is gold in the inside and gold in the outside… before I post this comment remember this Do not do unto others what you don’t want others to do unto you. (woaaa …. this I just say all this O_o)
No one really cares about their height. In fact i’ve never heard of a celebrity of the same “TYPE” who has famed because of his/her height, except of the special cases of course. Take for example, Yao Ming. Lol!
What i’m saying is that they NEVER really got their fame from their height!!!
So what’s the point of making such absurd arguments???
Some people really are losers sometimes. How pathetic.
And i’m not saying because i’m a big fan of these two asian females who happened to be popular… Duh!
Both of these celebrities had loads of plastic surgeries to the eyes. Song had a nose bridge put in and Kim had nose narrowing and nose bridge put in. Song had some work done to her cheeks and Kim had forehead implant. Ones eyes do not get larger and larger as we age. Only korean plastic surgeons have ways to stretch the eyes wider and bigger. You will me amaze what korean plastic surgeons and do. Both are not natural beauties. If you cannot see it, then your eyes are not 20/20.
your eyes r not real n its not perfect ya freak.
they are natural.
I agree that Song and Kim are not that tall,not even over 160cm bt they still looks pretty and HOT!!!
Gambateh!!!Love them both
height doesn’t matter !!! do not focus on their height .. they both have a beauty to admire and a great acting skill and that’s the real thing. RIGHT!!! I like them both .
Song cannot act at all. Both of these girls had at least 3 facial comestic plastic surgeries. They are not real natural beauties and the approx around 5′ 3″ or 5′ 4″ tall.
song is beautiful..kim is little only..
No matter bout height.. They both are cute..
Number one plastic surgery procedure in korea is double eyelid surgery. My mom’s relatives lives there and most korean young teens are getting plastic surgeries. It is not uncommon for a 12 year old to get double eyelid surgeries. When they reach into high school, they get bone shavine.
doesn’t care about their height..hello!!!!! there’s a lot of famous beautiful celebrity actress whose also short..like holly wood actresses eva longoria,hillary duff,christina ricci,kim kardashian and even shakira who is very famous is not that tall,but they are being admire by everyone..so think of it..
Yes, height shouldn’t matter. But many many korean celebritiies look alike just like what popseoul like to make fun of ,but it is true and most likely do to comestic plastic surgeries.
dont care…. im still her fan…
I don’t think the author tries to take them down.
And honestly I’m so thankful, bcoz reading this article makes me think that petite figures still can look beautiful and gorgeous =)
I just got a bit of plastic surgery done and I look super gorgeous. I got it done in south korea in a clinic that korean celebrities had their faces done. It look so natural too.
who cares if Song Hye Kyo is not tall or they were adding some cm to her height.. She is a gorgeous lady and the fact that she is small.. Its favor for me.. I love SHK.. ❤
She is not natural. She had work done to her eyelids, nose lengthening surgeries and also she had work done to her cheek bones.
i luv em both,
dnt care wot height dey r
deyr jus beautiful as evr!
x
shk is pretty and
kth is beauty
hi how r u? i miss u all the time
shk had her double eyelids redefined. That’s cause when she blinks or closes her eyes, there’s a thik scar dent mark on her lids. Compare her to Autumn in my heart days, her eyes were much smaller. (I preferred them that way.)Don’t care about KTH. Her mouth is too big and her eyes are creepy.
I also find kim tae hee scarry looking. She over done her eyelids and her nose is fake too. Her over did it with plastic surgeries and look scarry to me. Song is the better looking one. I also prefer her before plastic surgeried face.
Kim tae hee had plastic surgeries and so did song hye kyo.
love both of them..
