The athletic and wispy Kong Yansong from Beijing Sport University has the Asian online community buzzing since she won the online vote for most beautiful legs. She is unusually tall, at 5’10, for a young Chinese woman, and her legs in some photos appear to take over more than half of her body.
She clearly has waif-like model potential, and I wouldn’t be surprised if worldwide agencies are tripping over themselves to sign her as we speak.
There are a lot of photos of her posted online showing her as an active runner and tennis player on campus. She may not have muscle, but hopefully her extraordinary long legs take her somewhere special in life!
