Hwasa even took diet pills 'Forced to empty my stomach, I lost myself' ('Body Documentary')



Singer Hwasa confessed that she had a hard time dieting by taking medicine to empty her stomach.

A high-quality documentary 'SBS Special' that airs on the 8th, 'Body Documentary -'Confessions about'Sal' Five female stars, including Kim Wan-sun, Han Seung-yeon, Jeon Hyo-sung, Soyou, and Hwasa, gathered together to confess their true feelings about 'Sal'.

What is the truth that they realized only when they hit rock bottom after being called the Madonna of Korea or the epitome of an idol? They share many episodes related to appearance and share their journey to find the lost 'I' in the process.



Dream conditions

"At that time, the agency decided to weigh 48kg. If I want to be 168cm tall and weigh that much, I have no choice but to not eat it" - Possession -



Soyou, who has been singing in Jeju's tangerine field since she was young, has developed her dream of becoming a singer. There was an unexpected barrier to the path of a singer who believed that singing skills were enough. It's like an idol's formula, 'KippiMom 120' - a harsh standard that means you have to be 120 when you take the weight out of your height. When she was forced to stick to numbers even after her dream debut, Soyou calmly recalled the day when she was worried that she would gain weight just with the fluids she received in the emergency room.

"When I think of Jeon Hyo-sung, everyone thinks of his body... 'I don't want to miss this love' became my life goal." - Jeon Hyosung -



Jeon Hyo-sung, who wore 15cm heels for a perfect body and lived tightening his whole body with correction underwear such as push-up bra. For her flat-haired, it was said that it was more painful to reduce public love than correction underwear that interfered with excessive high heels and blood circulation. Looking back on the precarious days that she ran on, what kind of enlightenment did she gain?

When I was the brightest but hungry

"46kg when I gained weight. I lost another 4kg here, but I fainted." HAN SEUNG YEON -

Han Seung-yeon, who was called the standard of girl groups for her 'doll-like' appearance. The popularity of 'Mr.' caused a Korean Wave craze, but after the glory, there was a painful memory. It is said that the belly should not have come out at all to pull off the low-rise pants and short tops. Han Seung-yeon said that he got a disease that was difficult to cure because he was obsessed with a skinny body. I came here in the hope that someone would not repeat the same mistake.

"I couldn't eat so much that my colleagues said, "It's my wish to see him eat." - Kim Wan-sun -

Kim Wan-sun, who became a sensation in the popular music industry in the late 1980s and opened the era of video-type singers, was no exception. After a major car accident and a harsh heyday, she confesses that she used to rush to the stage with just one ice cream or biscuit. It is said that there was even a time when the weight went down to the 30kg range.

They confessed to the most hungry times as much as they were the most brilliant. If we don't achieve the 'shame' of weight, then we suffered 'shame', now that time has not changed much. They say they are looking for the 'I' that they lost in the whole process.

My weight ≠ weight

"There is a standard of beauty that cannot be reached. That's something I shouldn't do no matter how hard I try." - Hwasa -

Hwa Sa, who has consistently carried messages in songs such as 'Maria' and 'I LOVE MY BODY' and 'NA'. She seems to love herself as she is more than anyone else, but she also did not deviate from the typical beauty standards. What was the reason that she lost herself with flesh while forcibly taking medicine to empty her stomach?

After all the confessions, they asked us the last question. "How about you?" The five candid confessions and eventually all of our stories, 'Body Documentary - 'Confessions about 'Sal', will air at 11:05 p.m. on Sunday, the 8th.
