Hyeri’s Comments About LE SSERAFIM Chaewon’s Weight Trigger Intense Fury
Past comments from Hyeri to LE SSERAFIM‘s Chaewon about her weight have sparked major fury among netizens.
Amid an ongoing discourse regarding weight in K-Pop, a past clip from a variety show has sparked criticism.
In the clip, Hyeri asks Yena about how much she weighs, and when she reveals it, the actress adds, “I can lift you, but not Chaewon, even though the difference is only 3 kg.” The discussion then continues on weight, and others add that they couldn’t lift the LE SSERAFIM idol. As they keep saying it, Chaewon seemingly hits back at the fact she kept getting mentioned.

Yet, some fans defended Hyeri, explaining that the clip was just short and couldn’t be judged without the full context, with others adding that the actress and Chaewon are close, so it can’t have been an issue for the idol.
All Hyeri is saying is which weight she can carry and you'll are making her out to be a villain for stating her limits.
Go to the gym and deadlift your current weight if you're so sensitive. https://t.co/cY80PvHoF2— Selena (@Selenertime) March 2, 2026
You guys are literally basing your whole judgment on one clip. That’s from a variety show where Hyeri had to complete a task—she had to pick someone for it, and she was just stating facts. You’re totally twisting her words and attacking her for no reason. It’s honestly disgusting https://t.co/RGx8rDJKP7

Hyeri and Chaewon get along extremely well even after that show. I think it's incredibly stupid that they are criticizing Hyeri based on a TIKTOK clip.
Everyone should stop being such idiots and start thinking rationally. https://t.co/syBIFsTAGf pic.twitter.com/DyuCrOFlXo— nai ♡ FR SEASON 2 (@yerimfernet) March 2, 2026
The topic of weight among idols has resurfaced amid fears that they may lose weight.
