The Popular Kpop Idol Who Apologized For Gaining Weight… Fans Baffled

The popular Kpop idol J from STAYC has gained attention for mentioning her slight weight gain, and for apologizing because of it.

Its well-known that kpop idols face a lot of criticism if they gain a little weight and it ends up affecting them as they’re pressured to maintain a very slim figure.

Recently, STAYC’s J made headlines for talking about her weight. This had fans scratching their heads wondering why she’d apologize for being a human.

On a fan communication app, J said, “I went to work out.. hehe. TO be honest, I saw the fancam and I am sorry. [she’s referencing the fancam where it shows she’s gained slight weight].”

J added, “I didn’t maintain my body well. I am going to start a diet a little. I’ll do it slowly while eating good food. Fighting.”

Many fans felt bad J had to apologize for such a thing and have brought up how unrealistic the beauty standards tend to be.

Do you think she should’ve apologized?
