HYBE founder and chairman Bang Si Hyuk is gaining attention for yet another dramatic change in his appearance after new photos of him surfaced online.

Recently, photos and clips of Bang Si Hyuk attending CORTIS’s concert began circulating across Korean online communities and social media. Dressed casually in a black T-shirt, khaki jacket, and sunglasses, the HYBE chairman could be seen watching the performance from the audience.
However, it was his noticeably slimmer appearance that quickly became the main topic of conversation.
Compared to some of his previous public appearances, Bang Si Hyuk appeared to have a significantly sharper jawline and leaner face, with Korean media even pointing out how different his overall facial features looked following the change. His transformation immediately surprised netizens, particularly because his appearance had fluctuated noticeably over the past year.
Netizens Have Had Enough Of Bang Si Hyuk’s Unnecessary Media Play
Bang Si Hyuk previously drew attention after appearing considerably slimmer at public events in 2025. Then, when he appeared in a video this past June looking fuller again, some online commenters speculated that he might have regained some weight. His latest appearance has now sparked renewed attention, with the HYBE chairman once again looking dramatically slimmer.
Netizens were similarly stunned by the sudden change, with many doing a double take over just how different he looked.
- “Is that really him???”
- “If you can lose weight with money, then seriously, just spend the money and enjoy eating. Why struggle so hard to lose it? I’d be freaking thrilled. He also lost weight when he appeared on You Quiz or whatever, and he has plenty of money.”
- “Do injections make you lose weight that drastically?? Don’t you have to get one every single day or something?”
- “Wow, it looks like he lost about 70 kg.”
- “He loses weight surprisingly fast.”
- “Seems like he lost a ton of belly fat LOL.”
- “There’s never any real news about this guy.”
- “He still looked like he was yo-yoing even in fairly recent photos, so what happened;;”
- “That’s some serious yo-yoing.”
- “Are Wegovy or Mounjaro really that effective…? Or maybe they used AI to make him look a bit slimmer LOL.”
- “Wow, his jawline looks good.”
- “Wow, for real, major yo-yoing.”
- “This is the biggest TMI ever.”
No explanation has been given regarding the change, and Bang Si Hyuk has not publicly addressed his weight or appearance.
