WJSN Yeoreum Reveals Group's Extreme Method Used During Trainee Days

Recently on the July 16 broadcast of KBS' variety program "Diet," WJSN (also known as Cosmic Girls) member Yeoreum made a guest appearance on Brave Girls Yujeong's segment, "Brave Girls Yujeong's Diet After Day."

During the episode, Yeoreum and Yujeong met each other and talked about their past diets, as well as their current healthy diets. Yujeong had lost weight happily after enlisting the help of comedian and TV personality Kim Shin Young.

While the two idols were talking, they drew attention to the extreme diet methods that female K-pop idols and trainees do to lose as much weight as possible.

In particular, Yeoreum surprised everyone when she revealed that despite her group members being slim, they actually don't feel confident about their bodies.

"All the WJSN members are slim, but we don't feel confident [with our bodies]. We are slim, but we look swollen on camera," Yeoreum confessed.

She added that even if they only eat one food, they would end up thinking about it for a long time. This was more common when they were still trainees, which resulted in them trying an extreme diet method of using laxatives.

"When we eat one food, we would keep thinking about it. Back when we were trainees, we would go to the pharmacy and buy laxatives even though we weren't constipated," Yeoreum revealed.

Hearing this, Yujeong also shared the experience of one of her friends who also consumed an extreme amount laxatives due to their diet.

Yujeong said, "A friend of mine only had iced americano as their three meals a day. Since there was nothing [in her stomach], she couldn't poop and had to take 16 pills of laxatives. I was so shocked that she had to go to the hospital."

But Yujeong also sympathized with Yeoreum when it comes to dieting, saying, "I couldn't get out of the diet that female idols do either. But while participating in this [show], I feel like I am losing weight more comfortably. I learned how to exercise, eat, and keep my body in a good mood."
