• Netizens defend IVE from body shaming comments over the claims "they all gained weight except Wonyoung and Gaeul"

    K-Pop girl groups gaining weight has always been a touchy subject, and even though they may need to keep up a certain image, it shouldn't be the main focus of a group.

    A group of people online recently put up photos of the girl group IVE and talked about how some of the members had gained weight.

    They went on to say that while other groups work hard to stay in shape, IVE is the only group that has gained this much weight.

    The netizen who wrote the post stated, "Liz has already put on some weight, and it's not clear if it's because of her or not, but Rei has put on so much weight that she no longer looks cute, and Yujin showed up with a lot of fat on her upper body?".

    The netizen continued, "When watching fancams, it looks like Wonyoung and Gaeul don't gain weight, but the other four members seem to dance so slowly. Why doesn't Starship control their weight gain like WJSN or SISTAR".

    The netizen also pointed out, "Even though they don't say anything, fans are the ones who notice these things the most. I wish they would lose some weight before their fans leave the fandom. NewJeans snack on celery and carrots, but they also snack on bulgogi rice bowls and other fatty foods".

    The netizen then concluded the post by saying, "LE SSERAFIM works out often to stay strong, but IVE has gained so much weight in the year since they first came out. I really wish they'd lose some weight".

    The netizen who wrote the post also posted photos to back up their claim that they had gained weight.

    Other netizens quickly responded with comments:

    If you call this "severely gained weight," does that mean you are all obese?

    You're the only one here, and you write the same kind of posts every day. Because of this, we can tell by the way you write… You're older than them, shouldn't that make you feel bad? Even though these kids are at least 15 years younger than you, you always act like you're jealous of them, and you work so hard on those posts that I feel sorry for you.

    I like it, but did you have to write the title that way?

    False. Even if OP was a fan, we don't need fans like you.

    You mean like she put on weight?

    You think that's a face that's gotten fat? If they really put on weight, they'd look like you, with a double chin, and their faces would be buried. But their faces are still pretty. ㅋㅋㅋ

    What are your thoughts on the post about IVE?

  • Kwon Mina Struggles with Heart-Wrenching Cancer News for Her Dog—Fans Are Heartbroken

    Former AOA member Kwon Mina has shared a deeply emotional and heartbreaking update with her fans.

    On January 20, Kwon Mina took to Instagram to reveal some difficult news. "I have some upsetting and heartbreaking news to share", she wrote, explaining that her dog, Mochi, had been diagnosed with malignant cancer.

    She shared that a lump had been growing on her dog’s leg for years, and despite undergoing several surgeries, it kept coming back. Sadly, the latest diagnosis confirmed it was cancerous.

    Kwon Mina’s post continued, "The pain is expected to get worse, and the doctor told me to prepare myself to say goodbye to Mochi, as she will suffer a lot."

    She added, "Today, I can’t stop crying, and my heart feels like it’s breaking. I’m looking into options like anesthesia, euthanasia, and funeral arrangements so that she can pass without pain."

    She reached out to her followers for advice, asking, "If anyone knows a better solution, please let me know."

    Kwon Mina debuted in 2012 as a member of the popular girl group AOA. The group achieved great success with hits like "Heart Attack," "Bingle Bangle," "Like a Cat," and "Miniskirt".

    However, in 2020, Kwon Mina opened up about being bullied by her AOA members, leading to the group’s eventual disbandment.

    In a more positive update, Kwon Mina also announced on January 15 that she has started a new chapter in her career.

    She will be working as a consultant at a dermatology clinic near Sicheong Station, which is set to open in March, signaling her fresh start after a difficult year.

    Fans have rallied around Kwon Mina with messages of support as she navigates this emotional time.
