K-Pop Idols Share Their Extreme Diet Stories

Don't try these diets at home.

Female K-Pop idols face pressure to look a certain way. Many have shared their extreme diet stories, which have shocked and worried their fans.

Some idols, like Kwon Eunbi and Irene, have said they only ate one apple for days. They would cut the apple into small pieces to make it last.

IU had a very strict diet before she debuted. She ate one apple, two sweet potatoes, and a protein shake each day. At one point, she only drank water for six days.

ITZY's Chaeryeong said she once only ate six or seven almonds and drank hot tea all day.

Kang Mina, a former I.O.I member, shared a similar story. She drank two bottles of sparkling water per day for two weeks and lost a lot of weight.

LE SSERAFIM's Sakura said she only ate three pieces of kimbap each day. HyunA also had a very strict diet, eating only one piece of kimbap per day.

TWICE's Sana limited herself to eight cherry tomatoes per day. But Momo's diet story is the most shocking among fans.

Before debuting, Momo was told to lose weight quickly. She said she almost didn't eat anything and even only ate an ice cube for a whole week.

Momo was so hungry she was afraid to sleep, fearing she might not wake up.

These stories have sparked discussions about unrealistic beauty standards in the K-Pop industry.

Fortunately, many artists now speak out against extreme dieting, emphasizing healthy eating and sustainable weight management.
