Apink Bomi Recalls Having Atopic Dermatitis Caused by Extreme Diet

Apink's Bomi shared how she would tie up her hands to avoid scratches but still woke up with blood due to her skin condition, which she developed after having sudden weight loss.

In the first episode of SBS's "My Fantasy Home," Apink Bomi confessed that she was more concerned about her health in choosing things around her now, after having atopic dermatitis.

In the episode that was first aired on Jan. 6, Wednesday, singer KCM, Apink Chorong and Bomi appeared as the special guests. The female idols appeared as the second customers after KCM, giving a highlight to their house preferences.

Chorong said that she wants a big modern house, contrary to Bomi's choice of having a cozy clay house. While the two idols were surprised how their preferred houses were completely different from each other, Bomi explained her choice.

The show started with the two Apink members sharing that they are currently living in their dorm. Apink's leader, Chorong, said, "We've lived together for about 10 years, and we have to find a new house next year."

The two actually wanted to still live together, but they have different house preferences. Chorong said, "I didn't know it was this different, but it was definitely contradicting when we talked about the house."

Chorong wanted a spacious and modern house. On the other hand, Bomi, who saw the picture of the house that Chorong wanted, said, "It doesn't feel like home. It's scary."

It was because the house Bomi wanted was a cozy house. Firstly, she decided to see the house she wanted. Bomi eventually chose a house of clay. The female idol especially wants the partitions of the house, featuring a neat and clean atmosphere.

However, Bomi surprised the viewers when she explained why she's particularly concerned about the materials. She then goes on that during her active promotions for "Only One," Bomi lost 8 to 9 kilograms. Due to the sudden weight loss, her immune system has weakened and unfortunately became a factor in how she developed atopic dermatitis.

"I wasn't sick, but I felt like ants were crawling around my body. I sleep with my hands tied in clothing so that I couldn't scratch them. But when I woke up in the morning, the clothing was loose and there was blood on them. I've tried everything I can to cure it, but I realized that natural healing is the best," Bomi explained.

"I think that's why I've come to recognize a lot of clay houses. In the past, I also wear clothes with clay materials. I think that's when I became obsessed with my health," she added.

Meanwhile, Chorong also expressed her sentiments as co-member and roommate of Bomi. Indeed, she said she was upset to see Bomi being stressed like that.

"Bomi was stressed because she had to wear a turtleneck for her outfits. I told her not to scratch it if she was scratching it without realizing it," Chorong shared.

MC Jang Sung Kyu then suggested that if they have different likes, it is better to live separately. But despite wanting different things, they are eager to adjust and be together.

Bomi conveyed that Chorong is her mental support, while the latter idol confessed that being with Bomi is so much fun, and she feels like her energy is rising even if they are doing small things. Thus, they want to keep living with each other, which drew the attention fo viewers for having such an amazing sisterly love.
