 Height 120  Weight 女 Idol Official...Fast transfer of ownership to the diet emergency room → Worried while receiving fluid (body documentary)



SBS Special 'Body Documentary - Confession about 'Flesh' sheds light on the impact of biased beauty standards on female stars representing K-pop through their lives, recording the highest ratings of 2.8% (counted by Nielsen Korea).

Kim Wan-sun, Han Seung-yeon, Jeon Hyo-sung, Soyou, and Hwasa, who were famous for an era, appeared in the 「Body Documentary」 broadcast on the 29th to tell in-depth stories about the beauty of the body. Their honest confession, which had been hidden behind their colorful appearance, caused shock and deep sympathy to viewers.

'Women Who Can't Eat', 'Height-120', 'Shame', 'Shame', 'Lowest Weight', 'My Eating Disorder', 'Dilemma' A total of six chapters begins with the story of Hwasa, who was against the standards of idol appearance, which were the same unwritten rule. Reflecting on the withdrawal signature campaign that she experienced in the early days of her debut, Hwasa, who was confident with her unique appearance, said, `It's the fate of an idol, but the standards of beauty seemed to be tight, especially then," he said bitterly.




Han Seung-yeon, who considered appearance management to be an area of work, smiled bitterly while looking back at the time of the 'Mr.' activity. It is said that after spending months drinking water to digest low-rise pants and short tops that clearly show their stomachs, they became thinner.

Soyou and Hwasa vividly conveyed the unexpected barriers they encountered from their childhood, when they purely dreamed of becoming singers. When she was a trainee who weighed and evaluated every day, Hwasa secretly ate one black sesame Injeolmi and vomited with guilt. Since then, I've been anorexic and depressed, and I don't think this is rightIt is said that it occurred to him that " Soyou, who collapsed on the street due to a sudden diet and was transferred to the emergency room, was worried about gaining weight while receiving fluids, and later suffered panic disorder.

Even in the midst of extreme body care stress, 'height-120' (*a harsh standard that you have to be 120 when you lose weight from your height) was inevitable. They were forced to stick to numbers because of this weight calculation method, which follows like an idol's formula. Jeon Hyo-sung, who repeated binge eating and dieting, recalled the time when he was working at 50kg and felt like he had not fulfilled his professional duties", he confessed.

This yoke, which had to suffer from a 'shame' if it did not achieve the 'shame' of weight, has been around for a long time. 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. She lost four to five kilograms overnight in a major car accident and recorded her lowest weight, maintaining that weight for 15 years when her slender body received a good response. I recalled the time when I took a few bites of ice cream and went on stage as a `hungry time as much as it shone.'

In 2024, appearance reviews are still ongoing. Like reading bad comments from Hollywood stars, they also had time to read bad comments about their appearance, and their hearts had to be divided numerous times before they could accept them calmly. In particular, Hwasa, who captured the pressure of beauty in the song 'Maria', is said to have decided to continue speaking out when she saw fans who were encouraged by her songs.

Kim Wan-sun, Han Seung-yeon, Jeon Hyo-sung, Soyou, and Hwasa, who suffered their own ordeal by recording the lowest weight such as anorexia, bulimia, panic disorder, and idiopathic urticaria. What they missed at every moment of their curvy life was none other than 'real me'. It is said that he participated in this documentary to tell the truth that he realized only after hitting the bottom.




According to the National Health Insurance Service, the number of female anorexia patients under the age of 20 has increased by 97.5% over the past five years. At this point, the production team said they felt the need to have a frank talk about the standards of beauty we think of at least once. 'Bodymmentary - Confessions about flesh' asks us. "How about you?"
