As a special for the upcoming Lunar New Year, KBS will be hosting a ‘Healthy Idol Beauty Pageant,’ in which they will be assessing the health of various female kpop idols.

The female idols who chose to participate in this special were taken to the hospitals for physicals, where professionals examined their blood, skin, hair loss and larynx through tests such as x-rays. The next step of this examination will include having the strength of each of the girls tested through a competition.

The winner of this special will receive a gift for beating the rest in each of the following categories: skin, hair, s-line, muscles, spinal column, health quiz, cholesterol level and vocal cords.

So far, it’s been confirmed that Narsha of the Brown Eyed Girls, Rainbow’s Woori, Bora and Hyorin of SISTAR, Jiyeon and Hyomin of T-ara, Han Sunhwa of SECRET, 4Minute’s Sohyun, Kahi and Nana of After School, Kim Sook, Jang Youngran, Lee Jihye, Kim Joori and announcer Park Eunyoung will be participating in this Lunar New Year special.
