A post discussing the visuals of a member of VERIVERY has gone viral.
VERIVERY | Jellyfish Entertainment
VERIVERY made their debut in 2019 as a seven-member group with their first album Veri-Us. Since then, the group has remained active, most recently returning with “Lost and Found” in December 2025.
On April 11, the group performed at an event in Japan, which was broadcast online. Following the performance, however, a post discussing member Yeonho’s appearance went viral.
At debut, Yeonho had a slimmer appearance, but has since gained weight. The idol previously shared that he was “chubby” when he was younger and had worked to lose weight before their December comeback.

The post discussing his appearance was very harsh, insulting his looks with a screenshot from the performance.
베리베리 주연호 뚱돼지새끼 살 좀 쳐빼라 멧돼지가 무대에 난입한 줄 알았다 ㅅㅂ 다이어트 한다더니 그새 살이 더 쪄왔네 파트도 많아서 웬 돼지놈이 카메라 잡힐때마다 숨이 턱턱막힘 pic.twitter.com/FBo208FOvT

Verivery Yoo Yeonho, you little fat pig, lose some damn weight already. I thought a wild boar crashed the stage/performance. F*ck, you said you were dieting, but you’ve gotten even fatter since then. With all those parts, every time this pig bastard pops up on camera, it feels like I can’t breathe.
— OP
Many subsequent reposts were not kinder, accusing him of not caring about fans and making comparisons to other idols who they consider to also be outside of typical K-Pop visuals.
공계로 반박 하나 없는 이 상황이 지금 주연호 니 상황을 말해주는 거임 커버 쳐주던 팬들조차 입 다물게 만든 건 결국 본인임
무대 위에서 본인 파트 소화할 때 본인도 느껴질 텐데 팬들의 침묵이 뭘 의미하는지 진지하게 생각 좀 해봤으면 좋겠네 살빼라 https://t.co/UqtYjCSaME

진지하게 싡동 이분은 살쪄도 춤 잘추고 입담도 좋으니까 그래도 넘어가는게 있었지만 연호야 너는 살쪄도 재미도 없고 춤도 못추고 목에 빅맥껴서 음정도 다 플랫되고 고음도 힘겹게 하고 한두곡 하고 남들보다 더 헥헥 대고 살찌니까 땀도많아지고 내가씨발 벅줌이 되고싶다가도 정색밖에 안나온다 https://t.co/pM2N00X8CP

- This situation—where there’s not even a single response from the official account—basically shows your current situation, Joo Yeonho. In the end, it was you who made even the fans who used to defend you go silent. When you’re performing your parts on stage, you must feel it too—what the fans’ silence means. I hope you seriously take some time to think about it. And lose weight.
- He used to look like someone you’d want to hold when he was younger, but now he looks like he’s carrying/sitting on eggs.
- Honestly, in the case of Shindong, even when he gained weight, people could still let it slide because he’s a great dancer and has good variety skills. But Yeonho, for you—it’s different. Even after gaining weight, you’re not entertaining, you can’t dance well, your pitch goes flat like you’ve got a Big Mac stuck in your throat, you struggle with high notes, get out of breath faster than others after just a couple songs, and sweat more too. I sometimes think I want to become a fan, but all that comes out is a serious, straight-faced reaction.
Many came to the idol’s defense, calling out the harsh standards imposed on idols by some netizens and the unneeded hate comments.

Leave Yeonho alone, Yeonho is perfectly fine the way he is. Verrers don’t need you in the fandom if your’re gonna talk shit about a member
Yeonho is quite more successful than you so leave him and verivery ALONE https://t.co/CMOfBviATz

“Lose some damn weight already… blah-blah-blah” Y’all Koreans are so obsessed with weight… At least bro can still sing stably (which is the most important requirement for being an idol ANYWAYS) and belt high notes effortlessly 🙄🙄🙄 https://t.co/zatusO218o
