HoYeon looks tall and 5'9". I've seen photos of her next to Eileen Gu. Some sources say Eileen Gu is also 5'9", but she doesn't look as tall to me. I think Eileen's real height is around 5'7" (which is also a great height for a woman), but HoYeon is a legit 5'9".

She really tall, she's as tall as an average Korean man

how can she be 5’8.5 but shes wearing 3” heels and still shorter than this guy who’s supposed to be 5’11
Milson said on 21/Aug/22
Check out the huge heels she’s wearing in this pic and she’s still a couple inches shorter than 5’11” Lee jung Jae:

Not even 5’6”. Zendaya does this too, got everyone thinking she’s actually 5’8” ¯_(ツ)_/¯ always check the footwear

So I guess 174-175 cm is correct for this girl
5.9 tall but far from 'giant". She's a little taller but not towering
Hann said on 26/May/22
maybe this girl is really 175 cm, but excessive thinness and poor posture can cut a few cm from height during the day. She is so natural, unlike the typical Korean actresses with porcelain doll faces. Just a normal girl look

Eileen gu looks 166-169 cm if Hoyeon is 174.

Hoyeon in this picture on her onstagram
Click Here=) is shorter than the Olimpic Athlet Eilein Gu(who is listed on most of Sports websites as 5'6" ft).Just go see yesterday pictures of met gala 2022(click on the tag "metgala2022" on instagram search engine) and you will realise they were using the same standard high heels (louis vuitton gave these shoes for them for the event ).Btw,It also confirms my "theory" that Chloë Moretz is 3 and 1/2 inches shorter than what what the websites atributes to her by this image.

She's 179cm according to this website...

Here is the photo I was referring to below (since the link wasn’t working anymore):

With Tom’s recent 5ft 6.5 claim, I say Zendaya is no more than 174cm. Hoyeon’s the same height considering they both have similar proportions.
Malcolm Oliver said on 11/Dec/21
I think this photo accurately portrays Hoyeon and Zendaya’s height with similar footwear:
Click Here
Both are listed 5’8.5, but a case could be made for Hoyeon falling under into 5’8.25; on the other hand, Zendaya is a strong 5’8.5.
Personally, the current listings for both at 174cm seems perfect and any argument within the 5’8-5’9 range would be fair game.
Jackie Lee said on 3/Dec/21
Rob how tall does her costar Lee Yoo-Mi look next to her? Not sure if the grounds even but let's assume it is.
Here's the photo

Editor Rob
I might place her in 5ft 2-2.5 range
Malcolm Oliver said on 19/Nov/21
5'8.5 seems about right. Though this picture with Zendaya who's listed the same makes things questionable:
Click Here
But the footwear of that pic is also questionable.
If she can be convincingly 5'9+ in her model listing and in shoes, then I have no doubt she is at a true 174. She also looks that height with Lee Jung-jae and Park Hae-soo (5'11-6'). Definitely no less than 5'8.
Zero said on 2/Nov/21
Yup 5’8.5. 6’2 is she was a man
5'10 Dude said on 2/Nov/21
Judging only by her appearance in Squid Game she's 5'8½ max. She's no doubt tall, but 5'9 range is too high for her.
Muhammad Moses Azeez said on 30/Oct/21
Rob, can you please add Lee Jung-Jae. 180-181 will do him good
Korean actors are usually listed more close to real heights than American's Because they have public military records for most of the older actors.
Editor Rob
Yes I was looking at him again today.
ppc said on 30/Oct/21
Park Hae Soo looks taller than Lee Jung Jae in pretty much every photo/scene I've seen of them. They both have a solid 3+ inches on Hoyeon though, can't see her above 5'8 with Lee and Park both being listed at 5'11. I would guess Park to be a strong 5'11, with Lee slightly under.

I didn't realize she was this tall. I guess she'd be in the 173-174cm range.
Angle said on 29/Oct/21
Just finished Squid game and her performance was outstanding considering it was her first ever role. I did see this page before I started watching the show (She had a 5'9 listing then) and kept that in mind when watching. Lee Jung Jae is listed as 180cm online, but if she's 5'9 then honestly i'd give him 182/183cm... 181cm minimum.
This listing is fair, but wouldn't be surprised if she measures 173cm range 6 hours out of bed.
IMO
HoYeon Jung - 173-174 cm
Park Hae Soo - 178cm
Lee Jung-Jae - 181cm
resha said on 26/Oct/21
i mean she is a model…. 5’9 is an average height for a model
Andrea said on 23/Oct/21
Yeah, not a chance she's anywhere near 5'9 if Lee Jung-jae is the 180 he gets listed at!
Any chance you can add him, Rob? I'm sure his height is searched a lot in this moment :-)
All I can say is that he seemed above average in the show (then again I suppose the average is lower over there)...
Mohammed-170cm said on 22/Oct/21
@Rob- I feel most of your listings are correct, but this one is a bit far off. Here HoYeon with Lee Jung Jae who got listed at 5'11" everywhere, it sounds she's a 5ft8 girl there.
What do you think?
Editor Rob
5ft 8.5 could be closer.
Mohammed-170cm said on 22/Oct/21
No Nik. She is not. She is 5ft8 at the very maximum. Still very tall for a Korean girl.
Peter175 said on 22/Oct/21
Rob any guesses for the lead? See the picture that Macheo446 posted.
I think Lee Jung-Jae the lead is 182, Gong Yoo who is listed as 183 actually looks slightly shorter
Editor Rob
They can look 5ft 11 range, quite close
Nik Ashton said on 21/Oct/21
She’s as tall as the average English man!
Crab said on 21/Oct/21
@Macheo445
Lee Jung-Jae has got to be a strong 5ft 11, maybe as high as 5ft 11.5... look at him with Liam Neeson:

Peter175 said on 21/Oct/21
She's also listed as 176.
Looks as tall as the average Korean man at least, so 175 is probably right
Pratik 6 ft 7 said on 19/Oct/21

Jerry183 said on 18/Oct/21
I think she is 5'8 or 5'8 1/2, still pretty tall for a korean woman
Macheo445 said on 17/Oct/21
Google lists Lee Jung-jae (guy in the middle) as 5'11
Click Here. Looks taller here.

I was just reading through my comment and it reminded me of the scene in Blackadder II, when Tim McInnerny is chatting up Baldrick because he's in a dress, but Tim's ignoramus Percy thinks he's a real woman! 😂😂😂
He says in his hilarious tones, '...and such a pretty one!' about the zit-faced manservant, until Blackadder tells him that it's Baldrick all along, who looks like 'a dung boil in a dress!'👗
Model HoYeon will never have to fear being described as THAT! 😄👍

Hey Rob,
how much do you think she weighs?

120 at most

She must be nearly a giantess in her home country
Thorfinn said on 13/Oct/21
She looked more in the 5’8 range next to other squid game actors.
MattDubz6 said on 13/Oct/21
5'9 is a very tall height for a Korean woman, like easily top 1%. My sister is 5'7 and she was the tallest women around 95% of the time when we visited family. I'm only talking about young people ofc, if you count older people 5'9 is almost exceptionally tall.
HoYeon looked like a very tall woman in Squid Game, 5'9 flat IMO.
Psuedo said on 13/Oct/21
I will admit that in the show, she was looking pretty tall at a weak 5'9 with other cast members who are all listed as 5'11, wearing equal footwear of those white shoes.
However, more I look at the BTS pics, she's looking 5'8 max, and that's while taking the other male celebrities height truthfully as 5'11, which I doubt because the Kpop/Acting industry in Korea often inflates 179 to 180-181.
All the guys in these pictures have listed their heights as 5'11, she's looking 5'8 max.
