NMIXX Jiwoo Urged to Lose Weight

In the post, the user commented that phone cameras are the closest to one's real-life visuals and that size of her legs looked "above average." They added that an idol's job is managing themselves and that the photos show that she is not doing that because her weight is above the average.
Many internet users agreed with the original poster's sentiments, stating that it would be better for Jiwoo to lose some weight. Additionally, people noted that it would be better if she lost weight for the team synergy, as having someone who is "chubbier" bring down the team's image.

Others believe it would be better for her to lose weight to enhance her visuals. Many stated that she has a pretty face, but since her body is larger than the other members, she does not have a star aura. Many believe she can enter the visual line with Sullyoon and Jinni if she loses weight.
On the other hand, many were surprised to find that she was on the chubbier side. Because her face is slim, many did not notice her body was heavier than the other members. Many stated that her fat only starts from her abs down to her legs.

Many wondered how she was able to debut. It was noted that J.Y. Park often pressures his female idols to diet before debuting. Even TWICE member Jihyo was scrutinized for her weight when competing on "SIXTEEN." This led many to believe that she was able to fight her way into the debut line-up with her skills alone.
Comments concerning Jiwoo's weight read:
"I like NMIXX, but I feel it would be better if Jiwoo lost some weight. Her face is pretty but compared to her body, she is puffy and does not have a star aura. She will burst with potential when she loses some weight."
"I am more impressed that her face does not look fat from her face compared to her body."
"I feel like she can enter the Bermuda with Sullyoon and Jinni if she loses some weight."
"I watched 'SIXTEEN' and Park Jinyoung told Jihyo she looked stubby. How can he debut rookies like that?"
