Yet, the video has since garnered some negativity surrounding her visuals. Comparing Song Ji Hyo’s looks in the video to when she was much younger and more active, haters came flooding the comments section about her apparent weight gain…

- “Why is Song Ji Hyo all swollen? Is she sick or something?”
- “Who…?”
- “Omg? I thought it was someone unwell… What happened to her, she changed so much?”
…with some speculating health issues while others just flat out called her “ahjumma.”

- “Why are these people asking for some ahjumma‘s autograph?”
- “Gasp. I was like ‘Who is that ahjumma?'”
- “Oh wow. She gained a lot of weight.”
- “Ji Hyo noona has been putting on a lot of weight ever since Kim Jong Kook announced his marriage!”
- “I’m so sorry, who is this woman?”
- “Who else found out this is Song Ji Hyo only after seeing the comments?”
- “How come she put on so much weight…”
Of course, the “fat shaming” has nothing on the beautiful actress. Song Ji Hyo continues to stun her real fans with new endeavors—including modeling for her own lingerie brand.
