It is common knowledge that many K-pop idols adhere to rigorous dietary regimes in order to maintain their slim physiques - a topic that often stirs considerable discussion within the fan community. This generally involves idols consuming minimal food to maintain their lean appearances. However, one particular idol recently turned heads and challenged expectations with an impressive display of her hearty appetite, much to the delight of surprised viewers.
aespa's Karina boasts impeccable visuals with a stunningly slim figure, which makes it hard for fans and netizens to expect her to have a big appetite.
Recently, Karina appeared on rapper Lee Young Ji's YouTube show 'No Prepare,' and shared the secrets to her diet routine. She confessed that she loves to eat and works out 4 hours to keep off the weight.
After the show, K-netizens garnered their attention to how much Karina really eats. One netizen shared various videos and photos displaying the amount of food Karina eats, bringing a pleasant surprise to everyone.
In one video, Karina is live streaming with fans when she shares that her food intake amount had decreased but still goes on to eat four Krispy Kreme donuts. Karina shared that she used to eat six donuts in one sitting but can now only eat 4.
Following the video, the fan shares the photos of the food that Karina shared on her Bubble chat.
The netizen who created the online post also joked that Karina gets so excited to eat food that she even eats the paper on the sandwich.
The fan also shared photos of the food that Karina's group, aespa, ate together.
Other K-netizens were impressed with the amount of food Karina can eat and were also happy to see that Karina does not starve herself but rather exercises to lose weight. Netizens commented, "She eats so well. I like that she eats and diligently exercises," "I really like that she eats healthy and exercises," "I really like her so much," "It's so nice to see an idol who actually eats," "So cute she even eats the paper on the sandwich," "She eats so well," "It's amazing how she's able to maintain her weight even after eating that much," and "She seems to have a really chill personality."
I think a lot of idols will eat on these tv shows, but then eat less off camera. I'm sure Karina isn't binge eating every day. That said, at least she isn't sharing extreme crash diets with her impressionable young fans. We don't need any repeats of the IU diet, or any of the others that lots of people tried to copy themselves.
