MAMAMOO’s Hwasa has opened up about her noticeable weight loss, revealing that she slimmed down to the 40kg range while preparing for her latest comeback.

In the October 17 episode of Moonbyulida on YouTube, Hwasa joined her fellow MAMAMOO member Moonbyul for a candid talk about their health and body changes.

During the chat, Moonbyul shared, “After resting for a while, I started eating more. Since I wasn’t dancing or moving much, my weight went over 50kg.”

Hwasa responded with a laugh, “Even when I move around a lot, I’m still 50kg.” When Moonbyul revealed she worked hard to go down to 45kg, Hwasa smiled and said, “That’s not much different from me.”

However, Moonbyul couldn’t help but notice her groupmate’s slimmer frame and asked, “Why did you lose so much weight? You’ve gotten really thin.”

Hwasa then explained, “I changed my workout routine because of my comeback. My performances are usually powerful, but this new song has a softer and more emotional feeling. I wanted my body to look more delicate to match the song’s mood.”

She added honestly, “And honestly, when you’re emotionally stressed, you lose weight.”

Hwasa admitted that she worked hard to adjust her figure for her comeback, saying, “Yes, I did lose quite a lot.”

Meanwhile, Hwasa recently dropped her emotional new single “Good Goodbye” on October 15, showing a more vulnerable side both in her music and appearance.
