Shocking Appearances of Popular Stars Raise Concerns

By Yoon Sang-geun | August 22, 2023 | 16:23

We express our condolences regarding the recent shocking transformations of well-known celebrities. Despite being beloved figures during their prime, it seems that the weight of time has taken its toll on their physical appearance. Consequently, concerns about their health and well-being have heightened among their fans.

Youtube 'This is my house'
Ko Ji-yong’s recent appearance on ‘This is my house’

Following his career as a member of the first-generation popular idol group Sechs Kies, Ko Ji-yong tied the knot with family medicine doctor Heo Yang-im in 2013 and started a family with their son, Seung-jae. However, his recent appearance on ‘This is my house’ has sparked alarm. His once slim figure and warm countenance were nowhere to be found, replaced by gauntness in his cheeks and thinning hair, leading to speculations about his health.

In the video, Ko Ji-yong mentioned, “I have never worked as a CEO alone. During ‘Infinite Challenge,’ I ran an advertising agency with a friend. Currently, I am engaged in real estate development consulting and corporate acquisition finance, collaborating with my older brother who has extensive experience in banking and another older brother who has been in the practice business for a long time.”

Ko Ji-yong further explained, “I had an entrepreneurial dream since I was young. Although I embarked on a successful career as an idol singer, there is a distinct contrast between the entertainment industry and business. In business, even with a well-crafted contract, unfavorable outcomes can arise, leading to its demise. The same applies to the entertainment industry. One should not rely solely on public adoration.”

Throughout his appearances on MBC’s ‘The Return of Superman’ and ‘Infinite Challenge – Totoga’ after Sechs Kies disbanded, Ko Ji-yong did not exhibit significant changes in his physical appearance. However, in this recent video, his appearance gave off an emaciated impression.

MBC 'Point of Omniscient Intervention'
Onew’s appearance on MBC’s ‘Point of Omniscient Intervention’

In June, during a conversation with fellow SHINee members on MBC’s ‘Point of Omniscient Interfere,’ Onew’s physical appearance raised concerns. The members gathered to rehearse the choreography for the title song ‘HARD’ from their 8th studio album to commemorate their 15th anniversary. However, Onew, who had been taking a break from promotions, appeared noticeably thinner than usual, donning a black hat and a military-style outfit.

SM Entertainment, Onew’s agency, addressed the issue, stating, “Due to Onew’s deteriorating condition, he sought counseling and underwent medical examinations. The medical staff concluded that he needed stability and treatment.” Consequently, Onew will not be participating in the show, and a hiatus has been decided.

Onew personally took to social media and shared, “I believed it was necessary to inform everyone since there might be individuals who would be surprised. The main point is, I will return after fully recovering. I apologize for any inconvenience caused and appreciate your support for the future endeavors of SHINee. This decision was made for my well-being.”

Actress Lee So-jeong, known for her appearances in various commercials, the popular sitcom ‘High Kick Through the Roof,’ and the play ‘Family Love,’ caught attention with her appearance on MBC’s ‘Oh Eun-young Report – Marriage Hell,’ which aired on the 21st.

However, Lee So-jeong’s appearance on the broadcast differed significantly from her usual glamorous image showcased in previous presentations. On the show, she revealed an unusual daily routine, including grabbing a beer from the fridge before heading to work at the Japanese restaurant she operates with her husband, Lee Song-woong.

Upon seeing this, Oh Eun-young pointed out, “I have to address this. My wife’s primary beverage is beer, but consuming it excessively leads to fat accumulation in the body. Drinking seven bottles a day results in a high calorie intake. Despite continuous weight loss, maintaining a proper nutritional intake essential for survival becomes a serious concern.”

Ko Ji-yong continued, “I wanted to do business since I was young. But I became an idol singer and it ended well. There is a temperature difference between the entertainment industry and business. If you have something in common , you need In business, no matter how good a contract is, bad results. It can also end. The same goes for the entertainment industry. You shouldn’t accept love from the public.”

After the disbandment of Sechs Kies, Ko Ji-yong didn’t look much different from when he was active in MBC’s ‘The Return of Superman’ and ‘Infinite Challenge – Totoga’, but in this video, Ko Ji-yong was looking emaciated.

Onew’s appearance having a conversation with SHINee members through MBC’s ‘Point of Omniscient Interfere’, which aired in June, also raised concerns.

At that time, the members gathered in one place to prepare for their 15th birthday back and were immersed in practicing the choreography for the title song ‘HARD’ on their 8th regular album.

I would appreciate it if you could think of it as a time to catch your breath.” I made this decision,” he said.

Actress Lee So-jeong, who appeared in MBC’s ‘Oh Eun-young Report – Marriage Hell’, which aired on the 21st, made her name by appearing in various CF models, popular sitcom ‘High Kick Through the Roof’, and the play ‘Family Love’.

However, Lee So-jung’s appearance in the broadcast that day was quite different from the appearance where she dressed up to the max and showed her beauty through the presentation of the production.

In the broadcast, Lee So-jeong showed an unusual daily life, such as taking beer out of the fridge as soon as she went to work at a Japanese restaurant that she and her husband Lee Song-woong run.

Oh Eun-young, who saw this, said to Lee So-jeong, who said she was 176 cm tall and weighed 42 kg, “I have to point this out. My wife’s main drink is beer, but when she drinking, it turns into fat and accumulates in her body. Drinking 7 bottles a day is very high in calories. I believe that continuing to lose weight despite eating is a serious problem with the basic nutritional intake that necessary for survival.”
