Sunmi was always going to be hated for her body because she is apple shaped and gains most of her weight in her midsection. If she would gain weight in her hips and thighs instead, fans would have been praising her weight gain and telling her how much healthier she looks. But because it is not in the "desired" areas, she received a crazy amount of hate. Society has never been kind to women who are not hourglass or pear shaped, and she is just another example of that.

Yuna honestly hasn’t changed much, and with young idols it’s normal that their body may change weather they gain or lose so the way she’s maintained her weight lessens my worry.

I just don’t think we have the right to comment on other people’s bodies in the first place. Just like how fat people get upset when they are recommended a diet, skinny girls should not be recommended a cheeseburger. People have said I’m anorexic (including my parents) all my life when I eat like a normal person. Just because I’m thin doesn’t mean I’m unhealthy.

Ironic how only a few months ago kpop stans were obsessed with Yuna's figure and kept praising and calling it body goals. Now a few unflattering pictures during dancing later and everyone acts like she's the sickest person in the world wtf. When nothing changed at all, her body doesn't even look like that when she stands up straight and normally. Stop talking about other people's bodies, stop assuming things you can't surely know, it's none of your business! Believe it or not, there are people who actually struggle with gaining or maintaining their weight, just like there are people who struggle with losing it. It's sick what kind of entitlement kpop stans have to constantly judge an idol's body and act like they know everything about their actual health. Just listen to their music and support them if you love them but don't cross the line & stop acting like you are allowed to control them, their body, life choices or whatever.

Yuna has even stated herself she doesn’t restrict herself from eating her favourite foods and actually eats a lot she just had a fast metabolism 🤷🏻‍♀️

There's definitely a lot of factors that go into it, but the weight itself is not the concern, it's all about the context. For example, a very rapid weight loss, especially if the idol was bigger (by idol standard, e.g. an average weight) can be worrisome. If the idol was very publicly fatshamed, expressed being unhappy with their body, or the company having a history of starving idols, it's a concern. If the idol is less energetic on stage or in interviews, it's a also a concern. On the other hand, an idol that is still very energetic is probably in good health.

I feel like some people are rather selective about the idols they defend “aren’t too skinny” when I looked at what happened to Wendy back in Red Flavour era. Her pictures looked just like the recent issue pictures where ribs show in certain poses, but instead of showing concern or talking about how posing impacts it, people called her a skeleton and complained that she made them uncomfortable.

can people finally leave yuna alone? there have been way too many videos about her lately, she doesn't even post anymore at the moment because it probably got to her. using pictures where someone bends back and with harsh lightning is extremely manipulative. it depends on your bone structure and how big your rib cage is whether it shows or not while you're moving - and not on your weight only. yuna always has been skinny and her rib cage has been showing since debut while performing. i would be concerned about idols who acually lost quite amount of weight - and not about the idols who always looked skinny + never ever lose energy like yuna, rosé or lisa for example. not every skinny person is automatically unhealthy, i get the concern in this industry but labeling someone whose diet and life you don't know personally is unnecessary and disrespectful. and you're not helping anyone but probably making them feel insecure about their own body type.

For Gdragon, keeping his muscles means CONSTANT working out and if it's not natural for him CONSTANT special dieting. So his look change, could be due to him not following those specific workouts and diet. Those photos are just showing what he looks like naturally. For all of the idols, the TV camera adds weight where photo don't add as much. This means, on TV they may look one way, while in person or in photos will look different. Additionally, we are not THEIR doctors and have no real insight into their lives outside what they want to show. Lastly, netizens needs to start taking on the 5 minute rule. If a change takes more than 5 minutes to "correct" or change it's not your place to comment on it, especially with anyone you are not around 24/7.

Stress cause weigh loss/gain

At the end of the day everyone has different body types and we should respect it.

I suffered from anorexia and bulimia for years to the point of hospitalization. I’ve always been Underweight and I honestly still don’t have a great relationship with food but I’m trying. I’m still in therapy for it and still have to go to a gastroenterologist for my stomach problems it caused and dietitian for checkups. I just think we definitely need to talk about the diet culture and body image that Kpop promotes on the regular. Because it’s not good for the idols. But we also got to face it that most Kpop fans would rather their favs to be too skinny rather than them be too fat. A lot of Kpop fans are fat-phobic without even realizing it. A big reason I still find it so hard for me to want to gain weight is I know everyday people would rather me to more skinny than fat. And we all know how Kpop stand would act on Twitter if someone like Wonyoung one day got on screen and didn’t have a thigh gasp. They would start calling her fat. It’s something we all need to talk about but it’s hard too.

i absolutely love your commentary, hope you continue to make more.

The way I can relate to them because people that don't know me call me anorexic and say i need to eat an hamburger and stuff like that, the people that really knows me don't say stuff like that because they see how much I eat

There’s a huge difference between idols who are a healthy skinny/naturally skinny and those who are alarmingly skinny. What really infuriates me the most is that Knets will never be satisfied with how an idol looks especially with female idols, forcing them to fit the old fashioned beauty standards when beauty is more so how the person expresses it and shows it through their fashion, makeup, personality, or confidence. It’s the 21st century, it’s not the 1400s, it’s not the early 1900s anymore, yes it’s okay to be concerned about an idols weight but DO NOT constantly shove it in their face that they’re too “skinny” or too “fat”, and don’t believe pictures from articles that clearly look edited, how an idol decides to show off their natural beauty be it, curves, monolids, thicker thighs, more circular face, shouldn’t be such a huge issue now days, it’s THEIR body and THEIR life. It’s not your choice how they should look. Sorry for the slight rant, this topic really pisses me off especially when it comes to the thicker idols, I myself have rather thick thighs, face, and stomach so it makes me incredibly insecure about my body because people point it out so much. When seeing netizens and companies criticizing idols because they gained 2lbs makes me really angry, your career shouldn’t rely on how skinny or pretty you are, what should matter are your talents. But sadly in an industry where everything relies on beauty more than talent, an idol’s real talent is overshadowed because of their looks.

*WTF ,since when have fans/people forgot that K-Pop Idols are just as much Human as we are, not everyone can gain weight that's just the way it is, of course it depends on the situation but come on Enough is Enough!!!!!

I hope companies understand that idol's health is more important than a good looking body

If you don’t follow itzy at all you’ll know that Yuna said she’s okay and for midzy not to worry, so if you’re still stressing about this you’re just not a midzy

About Yuna and wonyoung they have always looked very skinny from debut

Rather than criticizing the idols, people should criticize the industry that promotes these types of bodies as the standard. Even those who are underweight get shamed for not being skinny enough.

There is definitely no damn way that you can tell me wonyoung is "healthy". I’m not a food/diet expert but i know that shes a underweight for her hight of 170+. Yujin is the same height as her but do you see the difference in body type? She's definitely severely underweight. (A insider from there company had leaked that wonyoung only eats 1 cucumber a day that’s so dangerous and unhealthy) There's no way she's having her period. This is so sad. She needs help, quick.(sorry to all the people that think I’m skinny shaming, I’m not, I’m just concerned for her health)

it could be that these idols are naturally very thin, but also loose weight because of overwork and/or stress

Blackpink Queens🖤💖👑👑👑👑

Yoona and Sooyoung has always been skinny even before debut, they are the most eater in the group labeled as the shikshin of the group, they have no diets (all snsd members) they've already said it before that due to their schedules they can't do any exercises nor diet but they always eat on their sets, no it's not concerning people have different body types and people should chill. These idol mentioned are healthy the only unhealthy about them is their mental health, they've struggling with people shits that made them look like that let people live their own lives

People need to not judge or say “eat well” like it’s not gonna help the idol even if they do have a eating disorder! Lots of people who have EDs said it really is gonna just help them want to lose weight more! So please please don’t……..just…. Talk about it you can just support and give love! Like “we love you :)” please just please don’t judge or even talk much about it if they have an eating disorder!

If you're naturally skinny, it's fine, but when alll female idols starts concentrating on being as skinny as possible, that will become scary. Cuz common people will start copying it and hence "trend" skinny trend is kinda coming back too.

Wonyoung is overworked and lost easy weight with pilate exercice than she love done much adding she revelead than she take vitamin for stay energic with her busy schedules. Ive members said wonyoung is optimist and love eat much Wonyoung get much pressure from company with her life as ambassadors of brands and highschool girl. She is natural slim person since izone.

The fact that many (especially) female idols are underweight is concerning for me. But that is what's expected from them. This is not just a thing in Korea. The cast of the show 'friends' is an example, too. The women were all underweight while being on the show and the actress who played Phoebe later revealed it was the weight, that was expected from them, while the male cast members had weight changes over the course of the show without any consequences. The thing is people who say being skinny has something to do with being healthy are hypocrites. Being that skinny is the beauty standard, it doesn't matter if it comes naturally to an idol or not. So I think it's pretty obvious that many of them lose weight in an unhealthy way because it has to be fast and effective. The important thing for me is, to know, that this isn't a normal standard, a normal weight for normal people out there. But since many Kpop fans are young or teenage girls, I sometimes think it is a bit concerning. I absolutely don't think the idols are at any fault, it's the constant pressure from their company and the public that often gives them the feeling that they have to be skinny, no matter what it takes. But considering that many idols themselves are teenagers, I think it's really sad and it can have a bad influence on their overall health, especially later on. Of course, that doesn't mean any idol out there is underweight or has a concerning diet. And of course, for some, it's just the body they have because of their constant training and schedule and their natural metabolism or just eating healthy. It is just a common thing, which means there are more than just a few idols out there who had to go through unhealthy diets or have to keep a weight that is in the very low spectrum.

Yuna is extremely skinny. You can count her ribs.

Rose is my bias She is our queen

my problem with wonyoung is not that she is skinny but that she is said to have such great proportions and is praised for being so skinny. if she really has a fast metabolism and things like that or even if she just likes to be skinny, its her choice. yes she should be healthy but in the end people have to decide on their own…however she is an idol with a role model function and portraying this really unhealthy looking body type as body goals is so toxic. i felt finally kpop became more open to different body types, seeing that girl from twice (sorry idk her name) and one in nmixx or something…there are idols with bigger bodies and they seem to be accepted which i find refreshing as it makes the viewers develop a better feeling towards their body since they‘re shown that not only skinny is a beauty standard but also other body shapes and sizes are considered beautiful. idols like wonyoung and especially koreans pointing out her „great proportions“ is a huge step back imo…i don‘t say shes not beautiful, just please don‘t make her the beauty standard because her body is not average…

Honestly , people are hypocrites in yuna's case. As someone who has a prominent rib cage bones like her they just show like that when I move or bend even though I am at a perfectly healthy weight, in our case to hide these bones we will have to gain a whole lot of weight, an amount of weight that if she gain they will be targeting her for being too fat. Female bodies are the easy target and you can't win with them. For me she seems like in a good weight and her rib cage showing is just how her bone structure is.

G dragon does look concerning tho , even his facial features look too big for his face

personally I think Yuna is rather FN

who else got rosé’s tiffany & co. ad on this video

It looks like beboss TV video

The super skinny body trend of the 2000s is coming back, and KPOP is definitely influencing that. Not good for impressionable children/teens

Yuna is ok she said that she ate a whole pizza those photos was Photoshopped👇

I think it may be wise to change the thumbnail and add a trigger warning for ED sufferers/those in recovery. The images in this may encourage unhealthy idealisation and can cause viewers to engage in unhealthy weight loss behaviours.

well, as far as i know rose always ate well so i think is genetic

When i was 10s-20s i was 170cm and 47kg. But i ate all the long.

Early this time

Who are y'all to talk about peoples weight...

I’m Latina and I’m a skinny person since always and when I turned 17/18 I started losing baby fat so now I look even skinnier (plus I’m flat chested) so I had to deal with people calling me anorexic, to eat more, you don’t look Latina, ugly, no one will want you cause it’s not attractive, etc. Eventually, I tried so hard to gain weight but my body is just naturally like this so I realized I will just stay healthy and don’t worry about stupid comments when I know that I’m totally healthy (tbh I still feel insecure). Anyways, sometimes we can’t know what eating disorders other people may have only by their looks so I think the best thing we could do is appreciative different body types and asking the companies to watch all the idols health, not only one just because they look “skinny” or “fat” cause they might be so stressed over this.

What I am trying to unerstand....they are really underweight, but their faces are kinda full. Is this the effect of the injections or what?

A lot of the girls, like Wonyoung, she's growing. She's not 18 yet. Women don't fill out until mid 20's.

It's their life and fans should know their place not to blame their insecurities on idols lol

Non siete mai contenti dei vostri idol,dovete trovare il pelo nell'uovo,ridicoli.Gli idol alti,hanno un corpo,se di natura sono magri,in certe posizioni si vedono le osa. L'unico è Gdragon,e veramente magro,e il taglio dei capelli non gli stanno bene,troppo magro,troppo

First

4th

Let’s be real they’re just starving to death

no way in hell does anyone call rosé too skinny lol. completely normal size 5:37 her large head is probably why her body might appear smaller to some people

Wonyoung trying so hard to gain attention and fit in beauty standarts so she went to the point where even safety short are too big
