In the K-pop entertainment industry where great emphasis is put on visuals, the weight
change of K-pop idols has always been of particular interest to netizens.
Therefore, entertainment agencies always set strict rules to maintain their idols’ certain
weight so that they are in accordance with the strict standards of Korean netizens.
Thus, there are many idols who used to have chubby bodies but now possess slender bodies
and V-line faces after shedding some weight, making them way more attractive than ever.
1.
NMIXX’s Jiwoo
It could be said that in NMIXX in particular and in Kpop gen4 in general, Jiwoo is the
idol who often receives the most harsh criticism due to her overweight body figure.
Despite possessing the most flawless facial contours in the group, Jiwoo’s pretty face
can’t help her get away from loads of offensive comments being thrown at her chubby appearance.
However, Jiwoo now has a makeover on her body after shedding some weights, which really
caught netizens off-guard.
Lately, on 2023 Lunar New Year, NMIXX’s official Youtube Channel has uploaded 2 videos
of the girl group wearing Hanbok while cooking some food and doing a special mission to celebrate
New Year’s day.
Apart from countless funny and meaningful moments among group members, many netizens
also laid their eyes on Jiwoo and soon noticed that she seemed to become obviously slimmer
and her face looked much sharper than it did in the past, which made her V-line chin become
more apparent, and all her facial features were highlighted.
It could be seen that with the current figure, she now fits the Hanbok really well and is
more appealing compared to the time she wore it during Pajiwi.
Though Jiwoo still looks a bit chubby because her double chin is still showing out if we
look at her side profile, it can be said that she became way fitter and prettier, showing
her great effort to regain her debut visual.
Needless to say, Jiwoo’s current image has received really positive reactions from netizens.
They couldn’t help but spend tons of flattering compliments on her fresh new look.
with many people congratulating on the young female idol, saying that she is now more attractive
as well as encouraging her to go on a better diet to shed some more weight and help showing
of her inherent sharp facial features.
They believe that once Jiwoo did it, she could become the 2nd visual of NMIXX.
Fans also praise Jiwoo’s determination as they know that losing weight is not an easy
task especially for a teenage girl, and hope that she would manage to take her weight under
control, as well as maintain her current image as it in fact really suits her vibe.

Suga (BTS)
On January 25, BTS’s Suga left ARMY gasping for breath with his unreal visuals when attending
his first-ever Paris Fashion Week show as a newly-minted Valentino brand ambassador.
For the house's Spring 2023 haute couture debut, Suga went monochrome, he opted for
a light brown suit over a creamy camel blouse with a long necktie.
This outfit obviously made him look ultra elegant and much younger than his real age.
However, many ARMY noticed that Suga seems to lost quite a lot of weight since his latest
comeback with “Yet to come”
It can be said that after shedding some weight, Suga’s face looks both soft and sharp at
the same time.
Compared to the previous time when he exudes a youthful and adorable aura, this time Suga
brings a totally different image of himself, which is a charming, tender Suga.
Let’s take a look at his recent series of portraits which took the whole fandom by storm:
Suga's image in this photo series is considered super unique and totally different from his
hip-hop, teenage vibe before.
However, it's not the stylings but it's his thin body and extremely sharp face that make
these photos so beautiful.
Do you notice that Suga looks significantly slimmer than before?
That’s why his V-line chin appears more clearly and his eyes also look bigger.
Not only that, Suga's round and button nose that used to be the least appealing on his
face now stands out beautifully and is even the highlight on his face.
What’s more, the dumpling cheeks that used to cover his masculinity also disappeared
and are replaced by sharp cheekbones.
To this point, ARMY can all confidently agree that the male idol is now a different version
of himself and he was so right when decided to switch his style to a more mature and attractive
one.
Some couldn't help but express their excitement for his change in appearance, saying that
Suga actually has had a romantic streak and looks like a popular fashion icon thanks to
his losing weight.
They also hope that Suga can maintain his current image as it really exalts his inherently
genderless beauty, which is part of his irresistible charm that very few idols have.
On the other hand, some argue that if you are a die-hard fan of BTS in general and Suga
in particular, you will definitely know that Suga had turned into an ectomorph, who finds
it really hard to gain weight, so him being thin is not a thing to be happy for as it’s
a sign of his health having problem.
Thus, they hope that Suga would regain his healthy figure as well as pay attention to
his well-being.
They claimed that no matter he is chubby or slender, fans still always love and support
him on his career path.
