Pre-Debut Picture of ITZY’s Yuna Ignites Discussion Over “Hip Pad” Claims

ITZY‘s Yuna is facing fresh controversy over her body figure after a pre-debut photo surfaced online.
The controversy started with accusations that Yuna uses hip pads to create her curvy figure. Netizens have debated her “unreal proportions” for months. Now, a photo from her pre-debut days posted on a Korean forum has reignited the chatter.
The photo shows Yuna with a slimmer figure, leading many to claim the change can’t be natural. Others pushed back, calling out the obsession with her hips—especially since the photo was from when she was young.
