I confess it’s invariably awkward writing about physical changes in entertainers. It’s basically the pink elephant in the room – mostly unrelated to talent but impossible to ignore. That’s why I try to keep my commentary on such matters lighthearted because whether by choice or not, it’s still a personal thing with respect to weight (loss or gain), plastic surgery, and/or aging. Some happen by choice, others by time, but if I like an entertainer it almost never matters.
Recently in the span of one week K-ent has been buzzing about the very noticeable weight loss in two female stars known for their healthy physique and wholesome appear. Miss A‘s Suzy showed up at the Gangnam 1970 movie premiere looking visibly thinner, and a few days later was in Vietnam for The Body Shop event a little less thin. Even more chatter was raised when UEE of After School attended the drama press conference for Ho Gu’s Love almost unrecognizable with her weight loss. Is this a trend or outlying situations that merely happened around the same time?

I miss Uee's healthy figures.
I prefer before weight loss uee on the other side krystal and yoona were praise after gaining weight
Not just weight loss but Uee had her jawline reshaped. Her choice anyway, she still looks good although I prefer her previous appearance. Suzy looks about the same as before.
wow UEE so slim now. she is still beautiful but I liked her body shape before, her legs looked so great back then. I dont notice much change in suzy though.
UEE has slimed down so much. Her jawline also seems different and she lost her chubby cute cheeks, but she remains pretty and more mature (?) Suzy has grown so much, she looks gorgeous without the bangs and more interesting outfits. She's been giving me Jeon Ji Hyun feels. Hope she will show improvement and growth in her acting for her next movie.
I am neutral. I think UEE looks young and pretty with her slim looks. I dunno why some of you think otherwise. But some of you are very critical of some celebrities - hitting ppl, blackmailing ppl, slimming down. And some of you can't stand other ppl who have different opinion or who are more sympathetic, I don't want some of you come and hit me with evil remarks. Just grow up.
What concerns me more is once you look around a bit more and find articles on how these celebrities got to (and maintain) their looks. Articles that present that single potato + some cherry tomatoes + a health drink diets are "healthy" and "normal" ways of eating, or that starving yourself for days before filming a drama (IU) is something laudable.
People come in different shapes and sizes, there's nothing wrong with that. What is shocking is if you dig into Korean entertainment a bit and find that many of these very skinny actresses, actors and idols are essentially just starving themselves – and I'm sure a good chunk of them do it, because otherwise they have no chance at a career.
No shame/blame on the individuals, but shame/blame on an industry that expects this.
"blackmailing"?
I dare you to find even ONE person on this site who has "blackmailed" anyone, as you claim. And I think your definition of "hitting" is not a definition found anywhere in the English language.
Like alua says, it's no shame to the individuals, but on a system that makes already beautiful and healthy celebrities continually compromise their health and make surgical alterations to their appearance.
The above photos ( Black and White outfit ) of SUZY reminds me SEO EUN GI from the k-drama NICE GUY- Episode 01 ... Her hairstyle and the clothes.
Omg me too i thought it was moon chae won there for a second!
I had the exact same feels!
i have to say that i think UEE looks pretty thinner, but Suzy looks better less thin.
Uee Just looks like skin & bones now.. I miss her signature honey thighs!
wow if you didn't caption it's uee i would not have recognized it her!!! and suzy was lovely before miss her chuby cheeks. now she looks like 24 in a clasy way
Suzy is just so pretty! I hope she keeps working on things other than high profile characters on high profile shows so she can improve without the eyes of the world watching.
What if they did a female version of Bad Guys? She could have fun being the psycho and really let it all out. Don't know what title makes sense. Evil Women?
I just realized a possible reason it makes me happy to see Suzy. Her smile and shape of her face remind me of my god daughter. They are about the same age, too.
