Uee Opens Up About Extreme Dieting for Visuals: ‘I Didn’t Realize I Was Too Skinny’

On the May 24th episode of “Jun Hyun-moo’s Plan”on MBN, Jun Hyun-moo and KwakTube took an unplanned trip around Incheon.

During the mukbang (eating broadcast), “Incheon’s daughter”Uee joined them. When KwakTube saw Uee in person, he couldn’t believe it and expressed his excitement by saying, “I never imagined I would meet Uee in real life. This is so surreal.”

Despite being a fan of After School, he remained loyal to Uee and revealed, “Out of all the members, she has always been my favorite. Even during her absence from the group, I continued to support her.”

KwakTube continued to shower Uee with praise. In response to Uee’s question, “How do you feel seeing me for the first time?”, KwakTube replied, “I’m feeling extremely nervous, which is causing me to be quieter than usual.”Jun Hyun-moo added, “This is quite different from how he was this morning.”

KwakTube remarked, “I’m sure any guy my age would feel nervous because she’s a superstar.”In response, Uee chuckled and said, “It’s been a while since I’ve been referred to as a superstar.”

During the conversation, Jun Hyun-moo inquired about Uee’s eating habits, as she had previously been a swimmer. Uee responded by saying, “I am a big fan of food. Swimming requires a lot of energy, so when I used to train twice a day, I would eat quite a bit. My typical breakfast consisted of 3-4 servings of pork belly, and I even had my own grill.”

“Additionally, she admitted, “Although, once I debuted, I was determined to achieve a desirable appearance, leading me to attempt extreme dieting.”Jun Hyun-moo recollected, “You were significantly thinner during those days.”Uee replied, “I was unaware of it at that point.”

Uee’s realization of the significance of exercise has led her to prioritize physical activity. As a result, she has been dedicating her time to exercising, and this change in her lifestyle has caused people to view her more positively.
