Yet, her recent mention of dieting alarmed fans.

In a recent interview, Somin was asked, “Eating without gaining weight vs. not needing sleep?” Initially, she replied that though the question was hard, the “happiness from eating is bigger for me,” so she would choose not to sleep.

Yet, Somin changed her mind, saying, “Should I go with not eating? I mean, I need to diet anyway.” So, she changed her answer.

Fans couldn’t believe she talked about dieting when she was already so thin. They attempted to reassure her that she was perfect already and that they just wanted her to be happy and healthy. Additionally, fans raised their eyebrows at why such a question was included in the first place.
