A video of the idol is going viral with the OP claiming that, like many other idols have been accused of, Minju’s weight loss was due to the drug Ozempic.

Yet, it sparked a heated debate as while some agreed that Ozempic was seemingly an issue in K-Pop, many idols are losing so much weight due to lack of eating, diets, and strict schedules. In particular, they’ve added that skinny idols and female stars losing weight in K-Pop isn’t a new phenomenon.
it’s not ozempic please the kpop girls have been starving themselves since 1992 https://t.co/Bu7J6AZERk

Idk why you guys think the entire kpop industry is on ozempic when they are typically just all on adhd and antidepressants that suppress the appetite. Genuinely they were like this before the mass release of glpts and they’d be open about their apple a day diets. https://t.co/12GiiUucB3
