“48KG?” Male Idol’s Weight Alarms His Group Mates And Fans, Sparking Concern
Weight is a sensitive topic, especially in the K-Pop industry, where thinness is the beauty standard that idols go to extreme measures to meet sometimes. As a result, fans often worry that idols stay healthy when specific topics are mentioned.
Popular Female Idol’s Extreme Dieting Sparks Mixed Reactions
Recently, a boy group member shocked after he shared his weight during a live stream.
NCT DREAM are currently on their The Dream Show 4: Dream The Future world tour, and just completed their concert in Jakarta, Indonesia.
After the show, the group went live to chat about the concert, with the topic of weight somehow coming up. Jaemin asks if they should all share their weight, with Renjun remarking that fans might cry if they heard the number. The members attempt to guess despite Renjun trying to change the subject, and state they would be shocked if it were in the 40 KG range.
Jaemin: should we all share?Chenle: I gained a lot of weight recentlyRenjun: If I share, zennies might cryJaemin: Is it in the 50s? 60s?Haechan: Don’t tell me it’s in the 40s? Is it?Renjun: Let’s move onJaemin: IT IS IN THE 40S?Chenle: The 40s?!Haechan: 41 kilograms?Jeno: You could probably fly away if you only weigh in the 40s…Haechan: 49?Mark: I’m going to guessChenle: I actually know the number. I heard.
The members then list their weights, most in the 60KG range (around 134 or 136.6 LBS). Renjun does not share his directly, but another member seems to state it is 48 KG (or around 105 LBS).

갑자기 라방 도중에 드림이들이 자발적으로 몸무게를 공개하셨는데 내 눈에는 왜 눈물이 흐르고 난 살면서 듣도 보도 못한 숫자임 pic.twitter.com/iMHpAaBNjQ— 곰동이 #TASTE (@sunwon0619) September 28, 2025
Following the live, many fans expressed concern for the idol’s health as Renjun’s listed height is 5’7 and would be significantly underweight at that weight. Many also recalled the criticism he faced over gaining weight previously, another upsetting point.
Renjun, please consider taking some vitamins and eating more. You need to be healthy. It’s concerning that you only weigh 48 kg. The industry you’re working in is very exhausting. https://t.co/1PTTXnnWUH
