Following the release of her third mini album Cerulean Verge, fans couldn’t help but notice her noticeably slim figure. Her apparent weight loss has sparked huge concern.

Her comeback — which marks her first under a new label — has already drawn attention for its lower-than-expected sales.

agreed. we’ve seen her from the beginning and it’s not something crazy to notice. she’s always been a thicker girl and that is okay but this weight loss is extreme and can’t be healthy. and there’s nothing wrong with noting that. let’s not be dense here.

I love Wendy, I’m so excited to see what she does! But she almost looks sickly, and I hope she’s ok.

However, the reaction hasn’t been one-sided. While some expressed genuine worry about her well-being, others pushed back strongly, calling out what they described as performative concern.

Supporters argued that Wendy has long been unfairly targeted, constantly scrutinized for her looks regardless of whether she gains or loses weight. They stressed that conversations around her body only detract from her artistry and the music she worked hard to release.

The fake concern always makes me laugh 😏 mind you, you're never here but when she releases new music suddenly you're concerned about her well being????? Go take your fake concern somewhere else, we're here to promote her music and support her.

these non wendyluvs should be banned about speaking anything regarding wendy's health. no one has asked for your fake concern. she's healthy and doing fine look things properly before saying anything.

exactly.. it's very concerning how you're only here to comment on women's body instead of listening to her music https://t.co/akFD20EKdw

The debate has since taken over multiple online platforms, splitting fans between those who are worried about her health and those who feel her weight should not be up for discussion.
