Korean celebrities are increasingly facing public scrutiny over their bodies, according to OSEN. Figure skater-turned-public figure Kim Yuna, who is married to Forestella member Go Woo-rim, has been the subject of repeated pregnancy rumors. Her agency said the speculation was false after she attended a luxury brand event last month in a thin-strap black long dress. The rumors resurfaced when she posted a photo of two teddy bear dolls of different sizes on her social media with the caption 'Childish but cute.'

Why does Go Hyeon-jeong face health speculation?

Actress Go Hyeon-jeong has drawn attention at domestic and overseas events for her thin figure. She has said in the past that she underwent major surgery, which has led some online users to link her appearance to her health. OSEN noted that such speculation is unconfirmed and that commenting on her body at every appearance is unnecessary attention.

Are other celebrities facing similar rumors?

Yes. According to OSEN, actresses Shin Min-a and Gong Hyo-jin were also targeted by pregnancy speculation over outfits and poses. Former Girls' Day member and actress Hyeri faced criticism of her belly after a June fan meeting, where she wore a short dress. She said she did not understand why being thin was expected to look professional. Red Velvet's Wendy has also drawn attention for looking thinner than during her debut period.

For international fans

These stories reflect a wider pattern in Korean entertainment, where celebrities' everyday photos and changing body shapes often become the focus of online debate. Fans outside Korea may find it useful to know that official denials from agencies are often issued, but speculation continues on social media.
