[TV Daily reporter Lee Gi-eun] Former GFRIEND member Yuju’s noticeably thin appearance prompted concern.
On the night of the 11th, KBS Joy’s variety show \”Ask Anything\” featured an update on Yuju, the former GFRIEND singer, with hosts Lee Soo-geun and Seo Jang-hoon leading the segment. Yuju was the leader of GFRIEND and has continued her career as a solo artist since the group’s disbandment. She said preparation for a new solo album has left her emotionally fragile. When she appeared on the show, viewers expressed worry over what they called a \”gaunt\” figure. Her unusually slim frame for her height appeared to reflect the mental stress and pressure she has been under while preparing the album. Seo Jang-hoon and Lee Soo-geun, who often take on an unclely role on the program, sympathized with her career concerns but urged her to savor life beyond work. Seo said, \”If you put everything only into music, your youth will just pass you by. Work hard at your music, but I hope you also personally enjoy this beautiful time in your life.\” Yuju pledged, \”I will keep making good music for a long time with a healthy body. I’ll pay full attention to my health and be a singer who delivers great songs.\”
