Well-Known K-Drama Star Faces Criticism Over Controversial Diet

Go Hyun Jung is facing backlash over her extreme diet habits.

The 55-year-old actress shared her eating routine in a recent vlog on her YouTube channel. She shocked fans by admitting she barely eats. That morning, Go said she only had two thin slices of apple.

She confessed,

“I usually skip lunch because it’s a hassle.”
The day before, she had only puffed rice for dinner.

Go explained her unusual diet by saying she brushes her teeth so often that it makes her reluctant to eat more.

Her confession fueled criticism online. Many netizens called her appearance-obsessed and worried about her health.

Some comments include:

“You can’t hide your age, LOL.”

“Even after a major surgery, she’s still that obsessed with her weight? No matter how much of an actress she is, she’s nearing sixty. She should just eat properly and live healthily. What’s the point of being bone-thin like that if you’re just going to collapse?”

“Go Hyun Jung and I are the same age. I hope I get to meet her sometime.”

“Once you pass sixty, things can go downhill fast.”

“Eating is one of life’s simple pleasures, too, you know. You should eat a bit in moderation. At your age, it would be nice to grow older gracefully.”

The public is monitoring the situation closely as opinions divide on Go’s extreme eating habits.
