Health trainer Ray Yang is under fire after she irritated TV viewers by posing behind comedian and show host Kim Gu-ra while he gave a speech after winning the Grand Award at the

MBC Entertainment Awards Tuesday night.

Yang, 28, whose Korean name is Yang Min-hwa, held a placard behind Kim to congratulate him. But while Kim gave the speech, she was still behind him.

A media report said her behavior ruined the landmark moment for Kim, who received his first Grand Award after debuting in show business in 1993.

Yang apologized to Kim and he forgave her, according to media reports. She said she had no idea she would be seen with Kim.

Yang said she was elated when Kim won the award and wanted to congratulate him, but admitted her gesture appeared inappropriate.
