Piggy Dolls drop 20 kg each for their comeback

[strawberry-efeu.livejournal.com]

 

Piggy Dolls, the girl group trio that debuted in January with their first EP, “Piggy Style“, have announced that they’ll be making a comeback later this month!

At the time of their debut, the girls earned more headlines for their weight instead of their outstanding vocal talents. Together, they had weighed a total of 230 kg, with 20-year-old unnis Kim Min Sun and Lee Jiyeon weighing in at 90 kg and 70 kg respectively, and 17-year-old maknae Park Ji Eun at 70 kg.

After shedding tears over their body image and the inability to perform to their heart’s content because of their weight, the girls will be making a comeback with a slimmer image; reportedly, they lost 20 kg each. Late night practice sessions have been revealed to be the cause of the dramatic weight loss.

The girls debuted with the hopes of giving other overweight people the confidence to stand out, so this weight loss has actually put the company in quite the predicament.

A representative said, “They lost weight naturally in the past few months while preparing for their comeback. We’re careful and worried in case people suspect the girls of purposely dieting.”

Stay tuned for more updates, as they’ll be making their comeback with a new image on July 21st!

I thought I'd post this article since the other one seems to be more speculation. I can't really say who I believe now... They lost that 20 kg in 3 months btw

Haha, I love how they make it sound as if it happened naturally. But props to them. They are amazingly talented singers, I hope this song doesn't suck as much as 'trend'.

oh WOW... 20kgs in only 3 months? Well, I sort of approve since it's good for their health... I just hope they aren't doing it for acceptance. I don't think they are though, they seemed to be really comfortable with their body image, so I think they're only doing it so they can perform better. (Which is unnecessary btw, they were performing fine before)

Weight loss of 2.5kg per week isn't healthy.
Fast weight loss like that isn't good for their health at all.

arghhh who is that

[royalantares.livejournal.com]

I think you'd have to lose weight if you were dancing that many hours a day.

[chunsakuma.livejournal.com]

I like them a lot and am hella excited for their comeback, but AS IF you can lose that much weight in that short of a time span without "purposely dieting". Whatevs. I don't think we'll know the true extent of their weight loss until their comeback, since we've only really seen one photo.

Though, this?
the inability to perform to their heart’s content because of their weight
Douche move. They gave great performances during their debut : they sang live (and well) whilst dancing and didn't seem out of breath or anything to me. That's more than can be said for some acts who are thinner than them.

yes you can lose 20 kg in 3 months just by dancing and skipping snacks and candy

[miyozari.livejournal.com]

holy shit :o

[xfactorglory.livejournal.com]

20 kg in 3 months?! That is wayyy too much to be a healthy weight loss imo

[xfactorglory.livejournal.com]

or an ~accidental~ weight loss

[xblackchristmas.livejournal.com]

holysh. before and after pic?

[xblackchristmas.livejournal.com]

how can i lose weight like them ;-;

[muchie05.livejournal.com]

Why am I not happy about this? :(
*yes, they look fave but then again,,,,*

[lovestrucksmile.livejournal.com]

i wonder how the girls that looked up to them feel now that they've caved so soon under the pressure. :/

[qrizta.livejournal.com]

ugh ikr. They shouldn't have promoted these girls as the girls who would give confidence to other overweight people.

“They lost weight naturally in the past few months while preparing for their comeback. We’re careful and worried in case people suspect the girls of purposely dieting.”

wow no shit people are gonna think that. every idol out there practices before comebacks but I don't see them all dropping 20kg when they come back. They look great but their management is looking stupid for claiming they didn't care about their weight and then coming out like this but wait - I forgot it was all ~natural~.

[engraved-16.livejournal.com]

Im confused, coz didnt the other article say they went on a diet?

[strawberry-efeu.livejournal.com]

I looked into the other article after this one came out, and the "source" was a blog post. So nothing official there.

[tugtugbeds.livejournal.com]

sell-outs tbh. but i still love them.

[flumpool-shinee.livejournal.com]

I was wondering that, too, when I first saw their promo pics. I was confused as to why they were called Piggy Dolls when they looked like they had average weight. Ahh, so this was like the after pic.

This article. Whut. TT______TT maybe they had lipo or something. lol, u can't possibly lose that weight in just 3 months and not pass out. They lost weight naturally in the past few months while preparing for their comeback. We’re careful and worried in case people suspect the girls of purposely dieting.” OH.

[qrizta.livejournal.com]

Unless they got diarrhea at least 3 times within that period, this is not likely to be a weight loss without dieting.

20 kg in 3 months is not natural

[inudela.livejournal.com]

your icon omg best scene in the whole fucking movie made me laugh hysterically while sobbing hysterically

[muffincrash.livejournal.com]

Are you fucking kidding me =\

[ashiva.livejournal.com]

While I do think it was good that they lost some weight (especially 90kg girl who clearly had problems on stage with dancing compared to other two), I doubt they lost that much without dieting. And slower tempo with weight loss would have probably been healthier.

[cartofkun.livejournal.com]

this sounds like such a fat lie =/

[audiograms.livejournal.com]

See what you did there

[herro-kitty.livejournal.com]

LOL forever sure they lost it naturally who is going to believe that? Their company sounds shady, tbh. What are they going to do with their name now?

[pancakeonmyhead.livejournal.com]

Dick move.
This upsets me.
I mean, it's cool if it was their own choice, and was done in a healthy manner.
But this is just shady.

[gardenintheair.livejournal.com]

lmao the title
