Ive always adored Luna, honestly what is not to like? An impressive vocal range and a damn cheerful personality. Honestly i was really impressed with sm when fx debuted because of their unconventional beauty and their song choices. Now i realize why such a group was wasted in sm and the consequences for not being 'Sooman's flower garden pretty'

[merong-xp.livejournal.com]

3/5 of the group were the epitome of conventional beauty, lol.

[diicca.livejournal.com]

MTE LOL

[slowitdownbaby.livejournal.com]

I think some k-netz are full of shit, but I did become a bit worried when she uploaded that 3rd picture.
Her legs :(

[haxoru.livejournal.com]

"[+ 163, – 12] Pff don’t make me laugh, what happened to the people who were fat shaming her you double standard bastards" yup.

[xxhna.livejournal.com]

I thought she had kidney issues ?


Either way knet #5 calling everyone out.

[tree-star123.livejournal.com]

this.

[sforza.livejournal.com]

I hope she is doing well, and everyone needs to stop commenting on people's weight, because as evidenced above, there is seemingly no right weight to be, you're either in one extreme or the other.

slightly o/t: did SM ever announce the fan club name??? it's been over a month...

[setsuna16.livejournal.com]

I love Luna and wish her health and happiness.

[kjc48.livejournal.com]

+1
(and future success)

[leopolitan.livejournal.com]

its pretty obvious she had something surgically done to remove her muscles :( so fucked up that she had to cripple herself to fit a beauty ideal

[typhlogirl.livejournal.com]

its pretty obvious she had something surgically done to remove her muscles

I feel so naive rn but that's a thing?! omfg :( fucked up!

[stereotastic.livejournal.com]

They're called carboxy shots or smth ): oh dear she didnt have to resort to doing so much

[nefertitii.livejournal.com]

if she stopped working out and starved herself, the muscles disappear. she might not have had to resort to something even more extreme. muscles wither and fade if not used and fed properly

[leopolitan.livejournal.com]

not to the extent hers disappeared tho (or how quickly). her muscles were huge and u only get that kind of degradation if ur wheelchair bound, but luna is a dancer who regularly uses her legs. its much more likely she got calf reduction surgery, u can google it and see similar results

[nefertitii.livejournal.com]

i wasnt thinking about her calves but thats true. and shes constantly dancing so it means she would have to stop for a few months for her quads at least to go down - they go away fast. calf muscles tho do not. stubborn shits.

thats sad.

[aeromi.livejournal.com]

she had some insane leg muscles, netizens would call her "horse legs" they were so mean to her.......

[nefertitii.livejournal.com]

ik i really liked her thighs. netz are trash what else is new

[illmeltyoudown.livejournal.com]

she still is a killer dancer, so i guess she stopped working out and began an extreme diet

[kwikimart.livejournal.com]

I find it really disturbing how casually idols talk about how they barely eat/starve themselves. Many sound like they have EDs and no one seems bothered so I am kind of relieved that people are concerned here.
I wouldn't normally like to say whether or not someone *looks* healthy or not but there is no muscle or fat in this girl's legs and someone that works as hard as she probably does should have at least more muscle.
Ugh I hate SM
I hope she takes care of herself after this comeback

[tree-star123.livejournal.com]

she's been teased by haters for having "horse thighs" - she actually got into sm for dancing so she had really muscular legs. i think she got carboxyl shots on her legs. she's also the shortest one so she got a lot of flack for looking thicker than her members which isn't fair at all :(

[kwikimart.livejournal.com]

Jesus
And then all the people that give her shit will now say she doesn't look right
Women just can't win.
I really hope she takes care of herself and focuses on getting herself healthy so she can keep dancing well

[tree-star123.livejournal.com]

EXACTLY. yeah women really can't win. only female idols get so much shit and then when they fall under the pressure of those comments and alter their looks they get reprimanded for not loving themselves. luna was pretty stunning at debut she looked a bit like yuna ito and happy.

there's a fan who spoke to luna and revealed she has a kidney problem too. i think her musical is wrapped up so i hope she does get rest before fx concert in january.

[elisaorange.livejournal.com]

That second photo.

BoA?

I feel so bad when natural and vibrant idols succumb to self esteem issues so that they have to change themselves to the point of harm. Seeing someone's personality or body change for the worst is always unfortunate. Just hope that she's doing okay, I don't follow her so I don't know how much has changed with her~

[fallendaydreams.livejournal.com]

they went from calling her a hippo andsaying she has horse legs to asking where the cute Luna went

[angela-derp-otp.livejournal.com]

I cannot speak about her weight because first of all that's a shitty thing to do, and also because I remember reading she had some health issues, so a variety of things could have happened to her. What I honestly do criticize is her plastic surgery craze, she went overboard tbh :( .

During Red Light her looks were STUNNING, now her face looks generic and forgettable.

[iskerplunk.livejournal.com]

i'd say she started to really glow during rum pum pum pum, she was so damn gorgeous during that era. but ia that red light luna is amazing

[mad-nux.livejournal.com]

so sad girls had to do this to fit standards.. why are ppl calling out netz who are worried for her are they the exact ones hating on her before?

[algaee.livejournal.com]

knetizens aren't a monolith.. but they shouldn't even be the point of this post
what's happened has happened and as shitty and unfair as her circumstances have constantly been and as much as i miss the luna i grew up with (tho my personal feelings don't matter in this), she has close and loyal friends and i don't doubt she's been doing what she felt was best for her at the time whether or not they were later met with ~approval from knetz or inetz alike. and no one knows everything that culminated into how she is rn better than herself, and us randos on the internet can pretend to care and be angry on her behalf, but if there really needs to be some kind of greater attention paid, i hope she is getting or gets it by the people who actually know her, and if she really doesn't, then that she gets the space she deserves, because she is obviously trying to catch her breath from something big in her life rn.
my comment probably reads as painfully oversimplifying and naive but yeah

[iznanassi.livejournal.com]

no i think this is an important point to make :) what's done is done and going the other way with it doesn't really help bc there's nothing she can do abt any physical changes now.

[algaee.livejournal.com]

yeah.. i mean i don't think anyone's anger over how she's been physically/mentally/emotionally strongarmed into her present state is unjustified. i was suddenly angry and upset for her too, a few days ago, because she's been sort of a big sis figure to me for so long and how come she isn't allowed to reap all she's sowed (rhetorical q haha)? but that's not the kind of thing i feel will do her right at this point. maybe later lol

[slowitdownbaby.livejournal.com]

+10000

[iznanassi.livejournal.com]

the whole netizen monolith thing is exhausting but there is a point to be made about not enough people speaking up when female idols are getting articles written about their bodies, nitpicked, and the comments are just meant to mock them.

[pinky-fairy10.livejournal.com]

GOSH. She's so skinny now, you can see her bones. She was perfect even before, damn those fat shaming netizens.

[tungatunga.livejournal.com]

Oh, come on. Just few days ago NB put out comments were netz ask what is this miraculous procedure that get rids of legs muscles, and praise her for that. Knetz isn't monilith any more than Omona.

[chanqsun.livejournal.com]

no but srsly shes starting to look scary. especially her legs in that 2nd pic ..... :/

[audiograms.livejournal.com]

Thatast comment hit the nail.on the head.

[bomsnose.livejournal.com]

I'm Mrs. she's too big, now she's too thin

[iskerplunk.livejournal.com]

omg that last comment. :( that second pic where we can see her thighs is pretty depressing.

[chenetic.livejournal.com]

*netz hate on someone for being "fat"*
*netz hate on someone for following their standard*
Do they realize how ridiculous the standard is now????

[gathyou.livejournal.com]

Commenting on somebody's health is always a big no for me. You don't know what's behind. Health problems? Eds? Or just some change in food and work-out routine? Anyway, it could be really triggering to ask endlessly about how she eats... also I'm willing to believe that netizens are concerned about her health but let's not forget that a bunch of netizens were also hating her for being "fat" or having "horse legs".
I've watched a V App and many comments from fans were telling her to eat. Same critic as netizens: don't do this. It's not helping, it will just push more guilt on her. Though Amber read out loud one of those comments so I don't know how to feel about it.

[pikapika217.livejournal.com]

Her legs are frighteningly thin :x

[jaeslurpy.livejournal.com]

she looked amazing before. i hope she'll get a path where she'll be healthy and not listen to haters. :(

[yanozuyanoki.livejournal.com]

is she on ketosis diet??

[frankoceans.livejournal.com]

taeyeon is another of their idols who has changed drastically and people don't ever comment about it. i think it's worrying how these girls turn into a complete different person in the way they look and people still praise their looks without worrying about their health. some fans don't even want to admit the changes because any criticisms of their faves = hate and sometimes is not even the intention n the first place.

[kjc48.livejournal.com]

what is happening to her, I wish she had stopped at RL era. This is pushing it too far tbh.

[illmeltyoudown.livejournal.com]

Well she is a SM girl, and unless your brand is "natural pretty" they tend to go a little to extreme in the PS department imo. Also all SM idols are skinny, i mean look at the hate sulli got, and now people calling Joy fat

[ohso-insane.livejournal.com]

I never had a problem with Luna's old body.. but she doesn't look healthy nor happy. Her left thigh looks really scary in the second pic.

[lizanka23.livejournal.com]

all these comments talking about how frightening she looks are not helping. we don't know if she's just been diagnosed with anything. and even if she has been diagnosed commenting on her outer appearance is not going to help. it's a focus on aesthetics rather than her health because you cannot tell a person's health by their appearance. a person can be super skinny and healthy or overweight and healthy. the only input she should be hearing is from her doctor
