Psy has Korean netizens and fans concerned following surprising weight loss.
On July 12, 2024, Psy uploaded a short video on his Instagram account and other social media platforms with the caption, "Ha, Seoul country boy trying Chinese cold noodles and Chinese bibimbap for the first time."
In the video, Psy appeared with a much thinner face, which immediately garnered attention. Despite his natural, casual look while eating Chinese cold noodles and Chinese bibimbap and sweating profusely, his V-line jawline and loose-fitting t-shirt highlighted his noticeably leaner physique.
There has been significant interest from netizens regarding Psy's slimmed-down appearance, to the extent that a meme about his "self-management failure" has emerged. Psy himself acknowledged his weight loss by saying, "I'm sorry if my management is lacking."
Many netizens were shocked to see him so skinny and expressed their concern for the male singer. They stated that it was saddening to see him this slim, and asked the "Gangnam Style" singer to take care of his health. Others wondered if Psy was sick, and questioned the reason for his weight loss.
Some comments from Korean netizens read,
- "He's lost a lot of weight."
- "It's upsetting to see him so skinny."
- "Take care of your health."
- "His face looks halved."
- "Why does he keep losing weight?"
- "He's lost too much weight."
- "Is he sick?"
Psy has previously shared his thoughts on self-management through various entertainment shows. On a past episode of
"Radio Star," Psy mentioned, "Fans ask me not to lose weight and to take good care of myself. Seeing my slimmer appearance, articles titled 'Self-management failure' have been published," expressing his intention to maintain his previous body shape in response to fans' requests.
