YouTube mukbang star Tzuyang recently appeared in a new photo with former mixed martial artist Choi Hong Man, drawing attention for their unexpectedly close pose. On July 11, Choi Hong Man uploaded the picture while promoting their appearance together on ENA’s How Many Meals, Tzuyang? In the photo, the two sit closely together at a restaurant as Choi Hong Man wraps one arm around Tzuyang and rests his face beside hers. Both smile brightly at the camera.
However, the considerable size difference between them made the pose appear even more unusual.
Choi Hong Man is approximately 7’2″ (218 centimeters), while Tzuyang is reportedly around 5’3″ (161 centimeters). From the angle of the photo, she appeared to be sitting directly on his lap while both of her arms were pinned between them. The image quickly attracted attention as viewers tried to determine whether the pose looked affectionate, awkward, or intentionally exaggerated for comedy.
- “Tzuyang, since you can’t use either of your hands right now, close both eyes if you’re in danger.”
- “So they’re filming to see how many meals Choi Hong Man could get out of Tzuyang, right?”
- “Are they competing to see who can eat more?”
- “She practically looks like a daughter sitting on her dad’s lap 😂😂😂”
- “Are they dating? If not, it’s kind of weird, to be honest.”
- “Bro, that pose crosses a line. I really don’t like it, but I’ll let it slide…”
- “Tzuyang is the one protecting Hong Man, right? 😂😂”
- “What kind of pic is this? LOL. The pose looks so clingy and intimate LOL.”
Some joked that Tzuyang appeared to have been taken hostage. Others compared the pose to a father holding his daughter on his lap or questioned whether the two were dating. Several viewers appeared genuinely uncomfortable with the physical contact, arguing that the pose crossed a boundary or that Tzuyang looked uneasy.
- “Has Tzuyang been kidnapped? Should we call the police?”
- “Mukbang weight class vs. talent.”
- “Hong Man, Tzuyang isn’t food 😭 LOL”
- “Look at him holding her arms so she can’t pick up the carrot.”
- “Please fill her up ••💙”
- “I don’t like seeing him hold her like that…”
- “They look good together, though? LOL”
Still, many defended the photo as a harmless promotion built around the pair’s extreme height and size difference. Some pointed out that Choi Hong Man frequently takes similar photos with celebrities regardless of gender. He has previously lifted stars such as Son Heung Min in a bridal carry and filmed other size-difference content with celebrities including Choi Yena and G-Dragon.
Whether viewers found the photo cute, strange, or slightly alarming, it succeeded in getting plenty of people curious about their unusual pairing.
