The idol continued, "I often wear revealing clothes when I go overseas but I'm discouraged from wearing such outfits in Korea. People criticize my body a lot." Some of the negative comments toward Dara called her an "elementary figure" and stated, "I don't see her as a woman at all."

Hearing this, Honey Lee pointed out how Korean society focuses too heavily on appearances and revealed, "You get a lot of comments even when you gain a little bit of weight. People have called me a pig."
