I'm relieved that after he had his shoulder surgery, he looks much healthier and freer. thats more important for me, his health and happiness

The thing is he's said multiple times to his fans that they don't need to lose weight and that he didn't like that thinness equals beauty in society. He even wrote a message on a gift for a fan saying "don't lose weight", told the fans at a signing that they are perfect the way they are and said another fan did not have to lose weight to have a chance with him and that personality comes first, all while still suffering from his own body image issues behind the scenes. In my opinion, he's looked his best recently with a bit more muscle and looks so much healthier. I hope he eats right and overcomes these issues some day. 💜

he went through so much. Anxiety and depression needs to be talked about more. I think Tiffany is the only idol I can think of who openly expressed going to therapy and encouraging it. These idols are self medicating with diets and that won't help.

Yoongi right now is the best he's ever looked. He is getting buff and and putting on healthy weight (like all members of bts right now) and I love it. When he's super thin it makes me sad, he deserved all the good foods💜 I know for an absolute fact that most of us Army's love yoongi when he is a bit chubby because his cheeks look so cute and squishy and ahhhh I just want to give him all the happiness in the world😭😭💜💜💜

That's why non-fans have no right to say something about Yoongi's weight. This man went through a lot. He deserves so much more. He looks healthier and happier now. I'm so proud of him.

im so happy to see he is healthy and his shoulder is healing

i’m really surprised the tear era was glossed over. i’ve always felt that was the time frame he was at his thinnest. yoongi was unrecognisable in the face, cheeks hollow, and the thinnest of clothes would hang on him, not to mention he was so noticeably withdrawn. fans actually significantly addressed it and expressed concerns and he confessed at a fan meet that he was sick - he also very recently touched over it in an interview after being shown a picture of him during those early months of 2018. in the behind the scenes of euphoria mv featured in the 2018 memories dvd, there is a noticeable dip from his ribcage to his abdomen when he’s laying down, and that’s haunted me ever since and why i’m pointing it out - i’ve been inside a mental hospital before and seen people there with that body type clinging to life. i get why people favour yoongi of that era due to his hair, his makeup, his clothes, and even the era itself just producing amazing music and content from bts, but since i saw that clip it sometimes makes me feel ill, especially when people say that era had “the best suga”. he was very briefly at that same worryingly hollow-cheeked look for some time in the summer of 2020 as seen in some selcas, but that was a very short period in comparison to the few months of the more publicised tear era, wedged between d-2 and dynamite wherein the tannies were silently preparing for the dynamite comeback, so it’s less discussed as selcas were really the only pictures or footage of him in that time frame. i think eating disorders within the industry are very overlooked - there’s an overarching view that in order to have an eating disorder one must completely starve or vomit or know they have one or confess they have one, but many psychologists point out that extreme dieting with insecurity surrounding weight as motivation can qualify as having disordered eating habits or even in itself an eating disorder, and Many idols diet in such ways. depression can also make its victims so unmotivated they don’t want to eat and anxiety can bring on vomiting. i’m so glad his surgery has opened paths for him - now he can exercise to lose weight, he’ll hopefully feel less pressured to go on diets to lose weight, and he will not seem as sick.

Sorry it's taken so long to update a male idol. The female requests greatly outnumber them but I think it's important not to forget lots of men also struggle with their bodies and dysmorphia in different ways too.

the pandemic really worked well for yoongi. also jungkook and others clearly getting into working out with a goal of building muscle makes it better than the unhealthy relationship with diets. hopefully his environment will keep him happy and not too restricted, intermittent fasting can be good and the only kind of diet i would want him to go on.

Honestly, I've been waiting for a new video and once I saw it was about Yoongi I was so excited. It's been a long history of body dissatisfaction with him and over the past 2 years I've been so happy to see Yoongi, and all the BTS members, become more comfortable and healthier in their bodies. Thank you for posting this and bring male body dismorphia and dissatisfaction to light

I still get fired up thinking about the stylish who told him to lose weight like WTF. It's not like they're wearing tight spandex or crop tops like female idols. They wear baggy pants with oversized blazers, sometimes a pair of stretchy leather pants. Like for gods sake he wasn't gonna gain 50 pounds and be completely unable to dress.

Yoongi has been my favorite member for the past 5 years I’ve known of BTS. My number 1 biased. I’ve always loved his personality, especially and the way he thinks. I love how caring and sweet he is. He is always so thoughtful and attentive to other members; he works his ass off an it really irritates the hell out of me that people would judge him in his appearance saying he’s “cold” or “lazy” when there’s no way he could be an idol if he was “lazy” as that requires hard work and dedication. Yoongi isn’t cold but authentic. He’s not going to pretend to be a certain way to people as it is pushed for idols to be. An that’s what I love most about him. He’s just himself, 100% authentic. I love this man so much I really couldn’t express😭💀. It doesn’t matter at what he looks like. Personality is most important to me an he definitely has a heart of gold. He’s only human so he has his faults both character and physical. That’s something to remember. These idols aren’t gods. But I’m so happy that they’re gonna take a MUCH NEEDED break. Yoongi has looked so much more happier this year and I’m so happy for him. I hope he continues to put himself first-his mental and physical health, show himself love because that’s all he deserves and more💕💕😩😩🔥

He went through so much.he is one of the strongest person i have ever seen.but people still call him lazy

I love these boys so much I'm glad they're finally getting a break . Fame is a double edged sword and idols end up being treated like objects.

I can relate with his extreme self-criticism... "perfectionist" is what I used to proudly describe myself without knowing how toxic and unachievable it is. No matter what ppl say u did good, it's never good enough for urself. U beat urself over and over through the process and after the final result. So eating becomes smth u do if u have extra time, never a priority. I still choose work over a meal until today. But at least I am aware of it now and try to remind myself that I worth more than my work. I know now that there is someone who can love & appreciate me without asking for any justification...it's myself. Its been going on for tens of years and countless times of hitting rock bottoms. I see it as a life-long training. I accept it and learn to live with it with consciousness ❤️

i rmbr in their 2014 festa they mentoined they were so uncomfortable with showing their abs during their debut. just shows u how much bighit exploited them...it sucks bc alot of armies hate bighit for such small things (not giving jungkook a nicer cake for his bday) and not for bigger issues.

I’m so happy to see him looking much healthier and happier these days, I really worried for him sometimes in the past

Yoon-gi has always been my hero.. he said to fans what he wished to hear himself, always anti weightloss for others, telling fans they're perfect how they are..it's like Karma in a way. I have suffered from an ED for many years atm I'm the heaviest I have been. Thanks a lot to BTS. I have other illnesses and injuries that have played a part in weight gain but before, I played many sports including diving and rowing that along with starvation helped me be incredibly lean, I gained just enough to compete but then would drop it again. I constantly heard how good I was at my sports and that I was pretty etc and I got my value from competing. I got down to 49 pounds about 3 years ago .I had trouble walking , I hid under baggy clothes so noone would see me. I still thought I was fat, that I looked horrible disgusting and watching this. I hear my words and thoughts echoed back to me from sugas lips. It's shocking. BTS and Yoon-gi have been my inspiration. I say I'm ot7 but secretly Yoon-gi has always been my bias. I have bipolar and epilepsy as well and Yoon-gi has always seemed so strong. I wouldn't wish what I've been though (& still am going through) on an enemy! You are beautiful Yoon-giah! You dont need to control your weight to control your world or impress people. We love you as you are, always 💜🌟💘

I am glad to see Suga looking healthier. I think that with him working more on his physical health, his mental has improved as well. He just seems happier and well adjusted now, something that we only saw very inconsistently in the past. I think the hiatus will benefit all the guys, and they all deserve it after all the hard work they put in over the years for their fans. I am sure their fans are sending them all their love and support. I know that their fans are waiting patiently for their return, but still enjoying the 7 x's content of their solo endeavors.

please do wonyoung next! her weight looks extremely worrying especially since she debuted with ive. she's the thinnest idol i've seen in a while, her arms and legs neither have fat or muscles :( her dancing also starts to lack so maybe it even affects her physically. i'm really concerned, she's only a 04' liner

After Suga's surgery he came back looking really healthy and really really handsome .. I hope he doesn't go on any diet and loose any more weight .. I like how he looks now .. 👍💜💜🥰🥰

a huge majority of the kpop industry are underweight or borderline underweight, and it all has to do with them being told from day 1 that they must be small and thin--i think almost all of them probably have body image issues from being told this constantly for years, and it really upsets me. we can really see this in suga, and it breaks my heart. and seeing jhope who is a very skinny guy talk about fat on his body...where??? i wish they had unbiased nutritionists to work with whose goals are about their HEALTH and not their aesthetics. even jk and rm who have more muscle than the others go on diets of just salad or limiting their food, which is not OK--no way you can gain or even maintain muscle without enough food! they all workout, or at the very least dance for many hours, so they require MORE calories than an average person. it is a culture that needs to change, and poor suga who already has struggled/struggles with mental health needs a healthy environment. it does seem he is doing much better now, so I am happy. i hope he keeps it up and eats whatever he wants

Honestly, I'm just more relieved that he's seemingly happier after his shoulder surgery, because I've noticed he's happier and it makes me proud to be an ARMY because I care about their health and happiness 💜💜💜💜

This man went through a lot and he is really an inspiration for younger generations who are dealing self estim ,depression.... he can help you through his rap by telling his own stories...

It looks like Hobi and Suga are such good friends. It's nice to see them together and hanging out. Fun stuff. Thanks for the video. It's good to understand what other people go through, especially if I am influenced by them.

Whenever i see videos like this about how much struggles idols have to face with their image overall bc they don't want to upset their fans. it hurts so much because they are putting their health at risk😕

I truly think this kind of content its really necesary to create awareness about the dangerous diets and the mental state of the Idols. But this video make me feel especially sad and triggered for some reason. I could relate so much on how he talked on vlive of how he was scared of gaining weight and how concerned he seem about the whole situation, and I was shocked of how natural those concerns were to hobi and even encouraging him ( I don't blame him either, the diet and weight loss culture in korea is super normalized and they also see the weightloss as "part of their job") But I felt more resentful when he said he was doing it for the fans. I don't believe thats a healthy reason for going throught a weight loss journey, and I like to think that there are more fans concerned about his health than for his body.

People are so superficial, once someone is under the spotlight, he is instantly put on a pedestal and every single move he makes is pointed at and critiqued! Let's not forget that he is only human and he has the simple right to eat for God's sake Give my boy a break.. He's done enough already and he's been thru so much you can see why he often feels lonely. Going through all that at such a young age; battling depression and social anxiety which is crazily difficult and coming out with his amazing, soothing and meaningful music shows how dedicated, passionate and responsible he is as a person. If he is one thing to any of you he should be an inspiration.. He teaches you how every dream you might have is within reach if only you believe in yourself and work hard for it. That's what suga represents. 💜💜

I can relate to Suga’s weight struggles. My heart goes out to him. Such a beautiful tender soul.

Really suga suffered lot, he looks perfect he don't need to starve himself. We love chubby Suga. I felt bad & anger yy people start criticising & give pressure to lose weight if u have this much problem then yy u not look urself in mirror. Seriously u know don't torcher idols they r also a human.

The vlive of jhope and suga wearing the face masks is not from 2020. The way this is edited looks like he’s speaking about his weight in 2020.

I will always have a soft spot for these puppies. Even when I haven't listened to them in a while, they make me wanna take care of them and praise them

I hate Korean beauty standards, no matter how famous and loved they are the publics had the nerve to fat shame him?!?! After all BTS has done for them? Suga is so perfect already and still a perfectly skinny weight?

Im glad he can always open up about his feeling, which not many people with depression are able to do. It means he has already deal with himself ❣️

you must have iron balls to expose your feelings like he does. I respect him for that enormously. Counting haters that idols have...the pressure and toxicity of some ppl. Cannot help admiring him.

coming back to this after thinking about his birthday live, he says he's dieting and only eating once a day :( i'd like to think he's become healthier but i think he still feels like he needs to lose weight even though he's always been thin :(

you should sooo do rm! he looks interesting. huge weight changes.

Suga is definitely naturally skinny, but to a degree. In this video it's really easy to tell when he lost a lot of weight. I will say though, I think Suga has less mass in his legs just with how his body is proportioned, so it makes him look a lot smaller wearing tighter clothes too. Either way I'm glad he's looking healthier now especially after his shoulder surgery:)

I'm so so happy he's been healthier this last year he truly looks happier

this man has NEVER been even close to fat or overweight. that’s laughable. he was veeeery underweight for most of his career, and even now that he’s finally gained (healthy!) weight he’s still pretty slim. yoongi just naturally has filled cheeks when he’s not starving himself thin - like in his 2020 era, his body would still look thin / slender but he’d have cute little cheeks. it’s a much more radiant look than how gaunt or hollowed out he’d look, especially with his already slim build.

Good grief, this man never looks bad. No one needs to sacrifice their mental/physical health for my entertainment. If they just sang and never did the intense dancing I would be happy, as long as they are healthy.

I want yoongi to always be healthiest and happiest.. even chubs is fine..He must not get in any pressure..I'll always lob him..his personality 🥺🖤

This made me realize the way all the members, in general, have talked about their body (and body image), dieting, etc and it's like idk,, It sometimes scares and kinda triggers me how they are used to it, being worried if they are fat or smth when they are already very thin, if they are bloated, chubby, saying if they are gonna gain weight in x situation and talking about starving, even recently like man you'll always look good :(

Yoongi tell us on Vlive that he is now at one meal diet 🥺 I always tried to follow his routine when it comes to food and was happy to finally feel free to eat more and this knocked me down again 😔 he needs more healthy food manners, because just following his routine I develop some of health issues … don’t as me why I keep doing it, it comes naturally to just copy his eating manners because they was very close to mine at the start 👉👈

I realize how much sympathy and compassion you put for people in your videos (especially after binging somi and iu’s video). I hope you receive much love from the people in your life too, amfg

19:46 This made me laugh so hard because it was just like when a Sim finishes their task

This was such a great video I'm very grateful for the time and effort you put into helping us further analyse this matter which really isn't spoken about enough. As much as we might wish that yoongi finds some sort of self appreciation/self love we have to try and remember that it's up to him and his mentality. I really hope one day he understands truly just how perfect he is and stops obsessing over his features (although knetz and anti's make it almost impossible for him to live lol). it's also pretty sad that when yoongi was thinner people would shame him for it but when he puts on arguably healthy weight he also gets shamed for that

I literally cried when he was already so thin but still felt the need to diet… so happy that they’re now taking a break and I hope they can spend this time by eating all the things they want and doing every other activities they’ve been wanting to do. True ARMY’s would want nothing but the best for them, and I hope in 2022 they can continue loving themselves more and fulfill their dreams 💜💜

I know this isn’t a popular request but could you do one on Jungkook. I really like your videos and the amount of research you do. Jungkook isn’t one to have a drastic change apart from DNA where he looked sickly thin but other than that there are time where he mentions having extreme diets like not eating for five days

no hate, but i’m honestly so tired of the members just laughing all this self hatred off. it’s obviously serious no matter how normalized it is in korea to openly criticize someone else’s body or strive to be underweight. when you love your member that you love, it won’t be so funny anymore and all the “looking good for tv” will definitely not be worth it. and their so called “fans” are the worst if they agree that he should feel so guilty. so sad

15:32 i was like WHAT I DONT CARE HOW MUCH HE WEIGHTS, True Fans will love him just the way he is.

I'm glad that after his shoulder surgery, he's gone bigger than he used to before, and so happy to know when he said on their last year's festa that he's been working out with the rest of the members. I like how he looks right now. Suga's body weight now is much better and he even looked more gorgeous now. His shoulders are bigger or broader than before, that's when you'll know that he's been gaining muscles now. I wish he'll continue to have a healthy life, eat well, sleep well, work out. Then he'll get more marriage proposals as he is having right now... especially after "That That" MV released. Suga's been busy wrecking ARMYs from their biases right now. 😸😸😸

I really appreciate him for living healthier than before 2019. I was broken when start and middle of this video.Now he is working on his muscles and living strong more. I am really glad.

Doesn’t this just tear your heart up? These struggles are important to share. How many of us go through the same thing without the crazy microscopic criticism? So much commitment, hard work, self-improvement…and starvation. No wonder the constant “stay healthy” reminders of recent years. Bodies that work hard need to be fed well. The weight swings here that caused so much concern are what? Not even 10 pounds. So much success and still the image haunting from a few pounds. Celebrity is ruthless. God bless the supporters of healthy, long, creative, productive love-filled lives.

I think rm,jk,jimin packing on muscle helps suga because he has the body type that gains weight/muscle easily. If he doesnt work out it turns to fat. I hope he sees a nutritionist because he can eat its just watching what he eats thats hard.

Ahhhh I'm crying so much :( There's so much pressure on yoongi and he's been through so much, I'm so happy that he's been looking healthy recently because the clips of him talking about wanting to starve,fast etc makes me really sad

I am so happy to see Yoongi healthier :). I think it would be really interesting if you made a video on Jimin too, he has had so many issues with weight and his story is so interesting.

Thanks for the good work❤️

I'm glad he looks much better today. He looks healthy and happy☺

Dang the bts fans really cared as everyone was really crying after they figured out they were ill

I’m glad his doing well :) his orange hair is the bomb. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

A great video. I love Suga. I hope that he can maintain his weight in a healthy way. I understand the struggle.

I am glad he is taking care of himself. These crazy diets are horrible. And I never thought he looked fat at all during those years. I thought he looked good and healthy at their PTD LA concert.

Can you make a video for Wonyoung. She’s gotten so thin and I don’t think people can tell how much

This breaks my heart seeing him try so hard to lose weight because the company says so knowing that he is suffering from depression, anxiety and an injury. Yes, it is part of his (and other idols') job to "look good on tv/media" but looking good doesn't mean you have to suffer and starve yourself to death. P.s. the new Yoongi look (including the ginger hair) is by far the best that I've seen him in. Hope he stays healthy and happy for a looong time. 🐱❤️

Y’all don’t know how much I lobs this man 💜

I'm low key salty that he was a hypocrite telling fans not to diet when he is the king of dieting/starving😔💔 fame is really a double edged sword

He looks so hot these days like damn 🔥🔥🔥. He looks genuinely happier and healthier now than he has ever looked...more so after the surgery and it makes me ☺️

Wahhhhh...so this...is the feeling of coming early🌝

you can tell he bloats in the face easily/gains weight in his face first so people just assume his diet and body based on that. But if you look at his natural frame he's quite skinny/fit. He had wider shoulders than jungkook for majority of their time till jungkook got serious about working out and bulked up.

This man has always been slim. Fad diets and starvation screw your body up. He is perfect just the way he his they all are.

Now you gotta do all of them

I enjoyed this video. It was more lighthearted compared to others. Lots of more joking , understanding, and knowledge about weight in this one.

Now I know why he fainted while he was in LA for PTD concerts. The pressure to be so thin is not good. I hope he's able to let go of this thinking. The most important is to be healthy.

He really came a long way ...I'm proud of him

Love BTS no matter what. Everyone stay safe, happy and healthy x

This is a message to everyone: If anyone ever tells y’all that you look fat tell them that you just eat good food. like whenever someone tells me I gained weight or I look bloated I tell them I just ate some of my mothers delicious home cooked food and they just stare at me with jealousy because I don’t have to be skinny to be healthy!!! You do you!!!! Eat whatever you want and take care of your mental health, who cares what other people say!!!! Be positive!!

When I watched their comeback stage 2018, he Looked very fragile, thin body, and not healthy of course. Really happy to see him be healthier.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS

Love Suga how he has made a good comeback, yes his weight goes up and down but he know how to cope especially with his mental health issues, my granddaughter suffers the same and her weight goes up and down like his, but my granddaughter is more fortunate she hasn’t got anyone breathing down et neck to loose weight like the BTS members.

Suga sounds like he has some serious body dysmorphia. He's already thin as a rail but calls himself fat. He literally questions himself in that VLive trying to convince himself he's not obese yet. What are you doing bighit? Get some therapist's for your artists. And now their gonna debut a girl group? Pls pray for them.

First!! ❤️❤️

He has never been fat! I believe that the Kpop industry has a lot of body dismorphia issues. The internal struggles and pressure these artist put on themselves along with the external pressure from the industry must be so hard. My heart goes out to all of them. Stay strong and healthy. 🥰

SUGA💜

Yoongi...Please do what’s best for your heatlh . We true Army love 💕you for you.

This just breaks my heart.

Will you ever repost your jimin video ? You had some really good insights on our cultures lack of care for men's mental health With the rise of gym culture more men are having eds; and i feel like your video would be even more relevant

Suga is so great awesome gorgeous handsome cute yeah

9:40 this made me burst into tears

I don’t understand why the company tells them to diet so often when they need food and rest to function properly or else they risk having the whole group in the hospital suffering from many mental disorders and other illnesses and seeing how much Yoongi dealt with I can only hope and pray that they all maintain good health and happiness for as long as they are together

I Love them equally no matter what!! ❤️😭

My darling Sugaaaaa

The King

Eye opening video….. 🥺

you should do park jimin from BTS too 🥺

You know i like him no matter what ...everyone suffers through something but i dont like seeing our kitty suffer.. i hope he improves his love hate relationship with food. And eats alot healthier and takes care of his body.

No no no Suga Man! Take it from Auntie… YOU LOOK GOOD! You look healthy! You look happy! Don’t you lose a pound! Mmmwaahh 😘

my sweet yoongi :( all of this breaks my heart, how all the pressure on his looks and staying thin makes me incredibly sad. my love i will love you no matter how you are, as long as you’re happy i’m happy too. eat all the food you heart desires and i will kick anybody who dares to speak about you.

I wish we could normalise being of “normal” weight in the entertainment industry! I love the BTS boys but I’m sure they are all underweight with the exception of maybe RM who has bulked up recently and looks to be of a healthy weight. They are already underweight for their heights but they are still worrying about being “fat”! It’s too sad. 😢 There should be a law in the entertainment industry that all idols have to be in the healthy weight range for their heights and any company that tells their idols to lose weight should be fined!

Next Joy Red Velvet please!!
