Some netizens believe Kyla is overweight for a female idol and is in need of a diet. Such criticism tagged along with Kyla ever since her debut, but recently resurfaced following PRISTIN's comeback with 'SCHXXL OUT'. Netizens pointed out that Kyla is still noticeably heavier than the other members and claimed, "she's ruining the visual balance of the group.''

Comments demanding Kyla to go on a diet stated, "As a celebrity, you market your visuals and if you can't take care of your body then you don't have the right to be one", "As an idol, being heavy is understandable to only a certain degree but she's fat even for a non-celeb", "It's true that she doesn't look good", "I'm not asking you to be stick skinny. Just lose weight to the point where you'll look better."

On the other hand, some believe it's time to break the stereotype and ideal figure size. These netizens claim there's nothing wrong with Kyla's figure, as an idol's main job is to sing and dance, and therefore, they shouldn't be judged too much based on their physical appearance.

Comments stated, "Our country focuses too much on looks.. So what if an idol is a bit chubby? It's ok as long as they have talent", "I mean, how skinny do you want them to be?"

To K-Pop stars, especially to female idols, size is extremely important, and going on a diet for the skinny look is often the norm.
