Get Inspired By Ex-Pristin’s Kyla’s Transformation, Diet, and Weight Loss!

Kyla long-running bad criticism

Since PRISTIN’s debut in March 2017, Kyla has been quite often criticized for the proportion of her body that is considered not to meet the beauty standards for an idol. Not just dropping negative comments, but some fans even uploaded photos showing the comparison of Kyla’s body shape with other PRISTIN members, especially during PRISTIN’s comeback, SCHXXL OUT. “She is destroying the visual balance of PRISTIN,” commented one netizen. Other fans suggested Kyla to run a diet program. “As an idol, you sell your visuals. If you can’t take good care of your body, you don’t have the right to be an idol.”

Pann: What’s so fat about Kyla?

“I’m posting this because I really have no idea. Isn’t Kyla considered average?… I feel like Korea is a country that puts way too much pressure on women. Will there ever be a day where thin is the only standard? Kyla’s only 16 or 17, what more do you expect from her at that age? Her job is literally to sing and dance on stage, why does she need to be thin for that? I’m just worried for her because I wonder how hard these hate comments must be.”

1. [+303, -60] She’d be considered big even among non-celebrities; are there only fatties on Pann or something?

2. [+255, -36] Kyla would be considered average if she was a non-celebrity but she’s considered fat among idols. People always argue that idols are people too and yeah they’re people but they’re not like the average person. Idols are products that are showcased to people and if they’re no different from the average person, then why doesn’t everyone just become an idol too? Kyla doesn’t manage herself compared to her other members and I think she’s doing more harm for the group than good. I remember seeing a fan-cam where Kyla’s trying to act cute but the camera was shooting the other members. She needs to realize her situation. And Wendy’s situation is different from Kyla’s ㅋㅋㅋ Wendy got a ton of hate from antis whereas even Kyla’s fans are showing concern about her weight. Kyla needs someone to give it to her harsh so that she can start managing herself. It’s just the way idol culture is. Instead of changing the way idol culture has been, Kyla has a lot more to gain by just changing herself… Stop blindly shielding her and give her some words of advice instead.

3. [+190, -11] She’s chubby yeah but she gets way too much hate than what it’s worth.

4. [+89, -1] Kyla wouldn’t be considered thin even among non-celebrities… and the reason she gets hate is that she doesn’t show any effort. Wendy and Joy and even Twice’s Jihyo, A Pink’s Eunji, and AOA’s Seolhyun are losing more and more weight whereas Kyla is gaining more and more.

5. [+60, -3] Am I the only one who prefers thinner bodies? I think Joy and Wendy look better after losing the weight than a body like Kyla’s.

6. [+49, -13] Didn’t she gain weight because she got sick? Her body wouldn’t be able to handle dieting on top of a girl group schedule on top of her illness. She injured her brain. I understand the comments telling her to manage herself since she’s an idol but it’s unfair to blame the weight gain on her when it’s because she got sick.

7. [+47, -3] How many of you are pigs to think this is normal? She’d be considered fat even among non-celebrities.

8. [+41, -1] She’s definitely not average.

9. [+40, -4] Stop shielding her. Her fans have already turned their backs on her. It doesn’t matter how hard the other Pristin members try to get fans when all their efforts are always buried under topics about Kyla’s weight. At this point, Kyla needs to lose weight. She can’t promote like this for the rest of her life. She needs to do it for herself.

10. [+25, -0] I’ve seen several of Pristin’s fan-cams so what exactly is Kyla good at then? Can’t manage her body, has no singing talents, has no visuals, what is she?

Pann: Pristin’s Kyla when she was first cast

1. [+150, -73] I honestly find Kyla pretty still.

2. [+115, -31] So she took a turn for the uglier.

3. [+111, -3] Kind of reminds me of a mixed version of Ji Ji Hee.

4. [+66, -0] I honestly think Pledis purposely made her gain weight and isn’t letting her lose it… because she may be getting hate but attention is still attention and that’s more important for a rookie. She’s obviously a pretty girl underneath all that so they probably wanted her to get attention for being fat and then have her appear with a ton of weight loss around their next or next, next album to get comments like “she’s gorgeous,” “must’ve been hard to lose all that weight.” They’re looking at the big picture, even if she’s getting all this hate now. I’m saying this because I remember the Pledis CEO before refusing to let UEE diet and let her thighs get smaller and kept forcing her to gain back any weight she would lose (UEE said this on broadcast herself). UEE eventually shot to fame for her honey thighs. It seems to be working because Kyla’s constantly on Pann and in the media for being fat. You think she’d get this kind of attention if she was skinny? This plan is already working. It’s game over once she loses the weight.

5. [+62, -1] This is so bad though…

6. [+41, -0] Her visuals are daebak so she’s going to do a lot for promoting the group once she loses the weight. Her company purposely made her gain weight so that she catches everyone’s attention since they know she’s pretty ㅋㅋ

7. [+29, -3] Go look at fan-cams of Weewoo, she’s gorgeous in them and I really wish she’d lose weight. She has the type of face that I really like. I could tell she looked intimidated by all the weight talk during this album’s promos but I know that she’s going to get a ton of female and male fans if she loses weight. She got famous for her weight so why not use the fame by losing it?

8. [+24, -3] Well thanks to Pann talking about her all the time, she’s gained fame for her weight so she might as well lose it and be called a goddess in return.

9. [+17, -3] I do admit she’s really pretty, just that she’s chubby.

10. [+14, -1] My friend went to their fan signing before their debut and said Kyla was the prettiest there. Even Joo Kyulkyung chose Kyla as the prettiest member.
