In a new interview with Star News, via AllKpop, she revealed that she “didn’t even have any time to eat” while tending to her promotional schedule in the United States.

“So, I lost way too much weight. All the clothes that used to fit me when I first came here [to America] are too loose now.”

A particular photo from the LACMA Art & Film Gala on her Instagram sparked alarm, with many fans commenting with concern.

She previously addressed her weight loss in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter: “I lost 6 pounds in a week when it became successful. I couldn’t eat — it wasn’t stress, I just didn’t know this feeling. ‘What’s going on out there, who am I?’ I was kind of losing myself,” she admitted.

More recently, she addressed some popular Squid Game fan theories.
