Park Min Young recently caused a stir on social media by revealing her alarming health condition in her new project. The keyword "weighing only 37kg" once again became associated with her name, along with an incredibly strict diet.
The South Korean entertainment industry is known for its strict beauty standards, but Park Min Young's recent weight issues have taken things a step further. During a press conference for the drama "Siren's Kiss," the actress shocked many by revealing her preparation process for the role of Han Seol Ah. The image of a glamorous superstar has been replaced by discussions about her weight of only 37kg – a medically alarming figure for an adult woman.
To fully portray the character's depression and panic disorder, Park Min Young admitted to adopting an extremely drastic weight-loss method: complete fasting and drinking only 3 liters of water per day. Her character, Han Seol Ah, is a reclusive auctioneer who barely maintains a normal life due to immense psychological trauma. Therefore, the actress believed that maintaining a thin, emaciated body was the only way to truly capture the essence of the role.
Public opinion began to stir when recalling her past weight-loss practices. This is not the first time Park Min Young has put herself in this dangerous situation. In 2024, when participating in "Marry My Husband," she also shocked viewers when she appeared weighing only 37kg to play a cancer patient. Repeating this extreme diet once again sparked fierce and conflicting opinions from viewers and health experts on social media platforms.
Some viewers expressed sympathy and admiration for her tireless work ethic. They believe that her determination and willingness to sacrifice her body for the sake of art have helped Park Min Young maintain her A-list star status for the past two decades. However, a contrasting opinion from netizens expressed outrage. Many argued that it is extremely dangerous for a highly influential celebrity to publicly disclose a water-only diet. They believe it inadvertently creates an unscientific weight-loss trend among young people, who often look to their idols as role models.
Audiences have also begun to question the pressure the entertainment industry places on female artists. Why would an actress resort to self-destructive methods to change her appearance in order to prove her acting ability? Insightful comments from the public point out that, no matter how professional Park Min Young is, her weight of only 37kg is still a worrying biological reality. The human body is not a machine, and such rapid weight loss will undoubtedly leave long-lasting consequences that no supplement can compensate for.
Amidst fans' concerns, the actress quickly clarified that she had returned to a normal diet as soon as filming concluded. She emphasized that she was alert and experienced enough to proactively adjust her physical and mental state. Nevertheless, the images of her looking haggard and having sunken eyes due to malnutrition still haunted viewers in the initial promotional footage.
Park Min Young's sacrifice is undeniable, and "Siren's Kiss" will undoubtedly be a significant milestone in her career. However, behind the applause for her outstanding performance, viewers still secretly long to see a vibrant Park Min Young from her earlier days. Does true art require sacrificing the artist's vitality? The answer probably lies in the balance that Park Min Young and other stars need to find on their journey to conquer new heights.
