Bang Si Hyuk’s Recent Public Appearance Worries Netizens
HYBE founder and director Bang Si Hyuk’s latest public appearance has caught the attention of the internet, but not for positive reasons.
On May 28, KST, Bang Si Hyuk joined multiple other leaders of South Korean conglomerates in meeting with United Arab Emirates President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan during his first state visit to Korea. Bang was photographed on his way to this monumental meeting, sporting an all-black suit paired with thick-rimmed glasses.
In his close-up photos, Bang’s outfit stood out as it looked extremely ill-fitted, evidently too big for his size. The droopy shoulders and the engulfing long sleeves made the HYBE founder appear much less dapper than expected of him.
Netizens have expressed their concern over this unexpected appearance of Bang Si Hyuk, as many felt it was reflective of his health. Some also said he looked similar to South Korea’s President Yoon Suk Yeol¸ referring to his much-talked-about appearances in ill-fitted trousers on multiple occasions.
- “He looks like Yoon Suk Yeol!!”
— “Well, Yoon looks like a fool, but Bang looks plain mean.”
- “Unbelievable.”
- “Really… Ugh.”
- “No, but why does his outfit look like a sack…”
- “Wow, he seriously looks like he’s going to get health problems. He needs to lose some weight.”
- “How is he not overheating?”
- “He is the real human Oompa Loompa.”
- “I thought he lost quite a lot of weight not too long ago, though.”
- “I’m not exaggerating, he looks fatter than Kim Jong Un… I’m worried.”
