IVE Liz Often Gets Misunderstood as a Foreign or Half-Korean Member
Liz is often mistaken as a foreign member in Theqoo and other online communities. Except for Kong-soonie Rei (Japanese), all five members of IVE are Korean.
Liz's real name is Kim Jiwon, born in Jeju Island

In addition, International fans also often ask whether she's foreign or half-Korean. I don't know how it became a meme, but there's this joke about Liz being a German (German Liz)
International fans are calling her 'Liz German' as a joke, right? They keep saying she's German...ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Our Jiwon is a Tangerine Princess who has a tangerine farm...!
She was born in Nohyung-dong, Jeju City. I guess they call her that because she has distinctive facial features and Western-ish looksㅋㅋㅋㅋ
It seems like the reason she's often misunderstood as a foreign member is because she has distinctive facial features and Western-ish looks + her name is Lizㅋㅋ
-Wow, I thought she was half-Korean until nowㅋㅋㅋ
-The other members all have Korean names, so I also initially thought she was a foreigner because her stage name is Lizㅋㅋ
-Kim Jiwon was born in Jeju City, Nohyeong-dong, at the Jeju Future Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinic.
-Oh, I've heard about the meme made by international fans, saying that Liz's real name is Elizabeth Helga Müllerㅋㅋ
-Wow, I also thought IVE had two foreign members...
-She kinda reminds me of Jeon Somi, so I thought maybe one of her parents is a foreignerㅋㅋㅋ
-She's sooo prettyㅋㅋ
-Liz is gorgeous.
-Why Germany out of all places, though?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-In her graduation photo, she looks Korean, but when she dyes her hair, she really looks half-Korean... So beautiful~~
-The stage name 'Liz' suits her really well...
-I think she looks like she's from Uzbekistan.
-I think it's because she looks like she's of German descent...
-How can her graduation photo look like that? She's so beautiful.
-The German Liz meme started because of her outfit in the "Eleven" music video; it looked like traditional German attire.
K-Fans Confused as International Fans Get Upset Over This Do Kyungsoo-Related Tweet
대충 백색소음으로 틀어놓은 채널이었는데 귀가 번쩍 뜨여서 트위터에 검색했더니 역시 팬들이 발 빠르게 올려줬네ㅋㅋㅋ 본인 취향 같긴 한데 계속해서 내는 힐링 발라드 말고 이런 쪽 노래도 한 번 고려해 봤으면 하는 생각.. 한정돤 장르에 갇혀 있기에 목소리가 너무 아깝다 https://t.co/BCzvxbuuQC

I had this playing softly in the background, like background noise, but suddenly I heard something interesting. So, I checked on Twitter, and yup, the fans were already talking about itㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ He seems to like this type of song, but I wish he'd try different types of songs instead of just sticking to soothing ballads all the time... I feel like he's not using his voice to its full potential by sticking to one genre.
International fans are furious to read this Tweet, the Quotes are filled with them saying things like, "Let him do whatever genre he wants"
-International fans, regardless of the fandom, are like natural disasters, seriously...
-Learn Korean... -_-
-If you read the automated translation on Twitter, it does sound like the OP is saying it angrilyㅋㅋㅋㅋ But before quoting it, shouldn't International fans do some research?
-D.O. sings so well, wow... I knew it already, but he's really good.
-That's right, learning Korean might not always help with understanding nuances. English translation is possible, but there are often subtle differences that we might not understand either.
-Oh, the translation got off track. It's a waste of his treasure-like voice to limit himself to just one genre. The OP meant they wish he'd try various genres, the OP didn't mean that his current genre is a waste of his voice.
-It would be fun if he sang various genresㅋㅋㅋ
-It seems like International fans always cause trouble regardless of their fandom, it seems like they have a lot of complaints. Kyungsoo is really good at singing, and he's good at acting, and he's really good at singing too. I hope he tries various genres since he's so good at everything. He's so good, I hope he tries more things.
-It was translated as "such a waste," so maybe they understood it as his current genre being a waste of his voice... No, that's not the meaning......
-For world peace, Do Kyungsoo should sing pop, ballad, R&B, and hip-hop equally.
-I've seen this situation happen several times before. I think don't think it's because of the culturals difference, it's just International fans that refuse to understand cultural or language differences, and they're discriminating against and hating Korea.
-Can't he try an R&B solo once?
-It seems like the translation is coming off as complainingㅋㅋㅋㅋ. If you translate the English quotes, they're all not complaining and actually respecting his choiceㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Let him do what he wants to do.
