Singer Sunmi recently appeared on the YouTube series, Salon Drip 2, and honestly shared her experience with weight.
On the show, she opened up about her past underweight days and her current weight loss journey, sharing her weight fluctuations.
When I was younger, I was so underweight that my company was worried. They even gave me supplements to make me gain weight.

However, over time, she revealed that her body had changed into a “person who gains weight easily.”
I always thought I’d never gain weight. After my first world tour, however, I felt I needed to gain weight for the performances, so I successfully gained weight through exercise and diet. After the tour, I weighed 52 kg.
— Sunmi
She also shared about her weight during past promotions. She revealed that she weighed 43 kg during “Gashina” and 41 kg during “Heroine”.
Then, when I weighed 52 kg, it was great. I was happy to see my plump, pretty body.
— Sunmi
However, her recent comeback was a song featuring instrumental music rather than a dance performance, so she felt she should lose weight again.
I thought about losing weight again. Over the years, I’ve returned to my original weight.
— Sunmi
She currently weighs around 40 kg.
In terms of managing her energy, she replied, “For breakfast, I eat a bag of nuts and a bag of chestnuts. I eat a packet of dried sweet potatoes when I’m really low on energy. They’re 70 g.”
