TWICE’s teaser for “FOUR” had fans buzzing—but not entirely for the reasons you’d expect. While the visuals were stunning and the energy fierce, some internet users shifted focus to Jeongyeon’s appearance, particularly her weight loss. And just like that, the conversation went from comeback hype to body commentary.

The teaser opens with a close-up of Jeongyeon before zooming out to reveal the rest of the group, setting a dramatic tone. However, one viral comment took a different route, saying, “Jeongyeon back to being skinny… THEY MADDD,” implying that her physical transformation fueled the teaser’s popularity. While some praised her weight loss, others were quick to criticize the unnecessary focus on her body.

TWICE fans weren’t having it! Many pushed back hard, pointing out that Jeongyeon has faced years of scrutiny, particularly when it comes to her physical appearance. They emphasized that the conversation should be about her talent and the music, not her size. The backlash also reignited broader discussions about K-pop’s toxic beauty standards and how idols, especially women, are often reduced to how they look.
Jeongyeon’s journey hasn’t been easy. In 2021, she took a break from TWICE due to a herniated disc and mental health struggles, with medication allegedly contributing to her weight. She came back to the group in February 2022, with an appearance change that had ill-intended people talking. As “FOUR” gears up for its July release, fans hope the focus shifts back to the music, where it belongs.
Let’s leave body talk in the past and appreciate the fierce VIBES TWICE is bringing to this era!
