On the May 22 episode, Hyorin revealed that her label Starship Entertainment had strict weight regulations, especially when she was a trainee.
She explained, "I was 6-7kg (13-15lbs) lighter during the time I debuted. Back then, they checked everything I ate and my weight every day. I was afraid that I might weigh more if I drink water so I often didn't drink water and waited."

Hyorin also revealed that she gained a greater appetite after she started working in the entertainment industry. She said, "They forced me not to eat when I was a trainee and I'm the type who wants to do it even more if someone tells me not to. They told me not to eat so then my desires to eat grew stronger. That led to a strange sense of damage and I've got a greater appetite."
