A good diet food means it is nutritious and provides energy, plus other minerals and vitamins but with lower calories, so that doesn't make people gain weight. There are various methods and food that help to lose weight but according to these idols, 6 types of food in this list are the most perfect.
1. BLACKPINK Jennie
BLACKPINK member Jennie's diet food is Greek yogurt!
Previously, the idol shared a photo of her eating greek yogurt to her Instagram story, saying she was eating a delicious recipe member Rosé taught her. The recipe includes a tablespoon of yogurt with strawberries, granola, and honey.
Greek yogurt has a low sugar content, high protein, and calcium content compared to regular yogurt.
Additionally, greek yogurt is rich in healthy lactic acid bacteria, so it effectively helps balance intestinal bacteria. Adding granola makes Greek yogurt a delicious snack! Jennie once shared on her Instagram story that Rosé is the one who taught her this recipe.

2. Lee Youngji
As rapper Lee Youngji loves salty food even when she is on a diet, she always carried snacks in her bag!
Lee Youngji greatly prefers salty and umami flavors rather than fresh and healthy tastes. However, eating regular chips is too unhealthy. Instead, Lee Youngji opts for protein chips, which are a better alternative.
Lee Youngji also eats chicken breasts and sausages during her diet. Eating a diet made of protein can definitely help build muscle.
3. Apink Bomi
On her YouTube channel, Bomi stated that she snacks on chicken breast jerky when she gets hungry from her juice diet. Chicken breast jerky is rich in protein, so they are perfect for diets. Additionally, they are incredibly chewy, which can help relieve cravings.
Bomi also utilizes cacao nibs. Cacao nibs suppress visceral fat production. It is also fun to eat, thanks to the chocolate scent and the unique texture. Since cacao nibs have caffeine, you can also eat it before and after exercise to have energy. If you are sensitive to caffeine, however, it is best not to have it at night!
4. IZ*ONE Chaewon
In an interview with a Japanese media outlet, IZ*ONE's Chaewon revealed that she gets most of her exercise from dance practice and that she often makes a strawberry smoothie before practice and during breaks. Chaewon revealed that they have a small cooking space for people to make quick snacks and drinks in their practice room.
Strawberry smoothie helps blood sugar levels when exercising and is also rich in vitamin C and antioxidants!
5. SECRET Jun Hyosung
Hyosung previously revealed that whenever she gets stressed, she feels the need to chew on something, which leads to stress eating. To curb her habit, she decided to eat something healthy. Hyosung opts for whole wheat bread or vegan bread. These options have a lower GI index than ordinary break, so it helps with low blood sugar levels and does not have as many carbohydrates. This is an excellent alternative for bread lovers!
6. B.A.P Himchan
During an appearance on a radio program, Himchan revealed that whenever he diets, he eats almond as a snack when he gets hungry.
Almonds are rich in unsaturated fatty acids and contain large amounts of nutrients essential for physical activity, such as dietary fiber, and vitamin E.
Almonds can also help curb your cravings for salty snacks!

Top 5 Artists Most Loved By Japanese Female Fans
One of the major music markets that Kpop groups have always aspired to conquer is Japan. Although this market is very fertile, willing and has a well-established fandom culture, it is not easy to win the hearts of the Japanese public.
After the successful performances of TVXQ, KARA, SNSD etc ..., today Kpop has more and more representatives who are 'blooming' in the cherry blossom country. For Kpop groups, of course, they still aim to conquer young people, especially teenagers. So how will their popularity among young people in Japan be?
Recently popular Japanese program 'Music Station' did a survey of Japanese female students to ask them which music artist they liked the most. Note that the answer is not limited to just Kpop or Jpop but any other music artist (group/solo) they admire. Therefore, when viewing the results, many people were surprised to see the very high rankings of some Kpop representatives compared to domestic artists.
Results Top 5 surveyed music artists most favorite Japanese female students
Hạng 5: Aimyon
Hạng 4: King & Prince
Hạng 3: TWICE
Hạng 2: BLACKPINK
Hạng 1: BTS
The results of this chart have quickly become a hot topic of interest to Knet. Many people said that they are extremely amazed when Kpop groups have now conquered the hearts of Japanese female students, no less than Jpop's solo groups or singers. Among them, BTS excelled at number one, while BLACKPINK increased their popularity by surpassing TWICE.
On the other hand, many Knet are also surprised when they do not see NiziU's name in the top 5. The reason is that the Japanese girl group from JYP is becoming more and more popular recently, and there are many sources saying that they are even more popular. TWICE is here. So they wondered if the media did not report correctly when a Music Station survey alone with Japanese female students found BLACKPINK ranked higher than TWICE, and NiziU was not even in the top 5.
Some comments by K-Netizens:
- Wow! BLACKPINK is so cool!!!
- They don't like NiziU?
- What surprise most is that they like K-pop idols more than their country's singers.
- The future of K-Pop is so bright!
- Kingtan!!! BTS is truly famous all around the world!
- What about NiziU? They said NiziU is now more famous than TWICE in Japan, didn't they?
- BTS is famous everywhere!
- I know that BTS is super popular but turns out they are more famous in Japan than Japanese artists!
- BLACKPINK ranks higher than TWICE?!!!!!
- BLACKPINK is really famous in Japan, but I read a lot of newspapers and articles saying they're not that popular in Japan.
- Where are all the people saying that BLACKPINK is not famous in Japan? So tell what is it, huh?
- BLACKPINK is more well-known than TWICE? I think that lots of ONCE (TWICE's fandom) don't realize the reputation of BLACKPINK in Japan... Well, they are more famous than TWICE even though they don't have any Japanese members!
