K-pop idols who have a chubbier and rounded figure are prone to receive negative comments from the South Korean audience.

In South Korea, K-pop artists must maintain their body figure based on their country's beauty norms. Skinny, fair-skin, and small faces are just some of the requirements for SoKor's beauty standards. Some celebrities who weren't able to escape the bad comments of the public have to deal with it on their own.
