Red Velvet’s Joy Gains Attention For Her Response To Being Criticized About Weight
Red Velvet‘s Joy has gained attention for her comments about being criticized about your weight.
Since debuting, Joy has always gained attention for her unreal beauty.
Recently, Joy appeared as a special guest MC on the show Animal Farm.
Considering it was the Lunar New Year, the celebrities on the show were talking about family gatherings for the holidays. During the episode, Joy showed a menu that had a list of what families would complain about, including weight, and explained that it’s something everyone could relate to. In particular, it is a huge issue within the K-Pop industry.
I am sure you all will be able to relate to this, ‘Oh you’re pretty now but you would be even prettier if you lost weight.’
— Joy
Yet, as expected, Joy hit back at the criticisms, adding, “I’ll lose weight on my own,” which was referring to the fact that she was in control of her image and didn’t need others to hit back at her unnecessarily.
While it may have been for a script on the show, the fact that Joy was so open about the issues of weight, especially considering the stigma in K-Pop, unsurprisingly earned her a lot of praise. When the clip was shared online…
"people tell me that although I look beautiful, I would be even more beautiful if I lost weight. please, I can control my own weight.”
joy you are beautiful just like that, step on them my love.

Comments from family is something a lot of people have experience with, but Joy’s words cement that you don’t need to take it on board and you can focus on your own wellbeing rather than being shamed.
