Video clip from TWICE Vlive "JIHYO'S CANDY NIGHT" TWICE talked about their diet and weight control + What would they be doing if they didn't debut as TWICE?
I don’t understand why companies force them to loose weight like that. Not only is it extremely unhealthy and toxic but it will just make them weaker and preform worse than they normally would. Would you rather have a starving, weak, unhappy idol who can’t perform at her best or one who is at a healthy weight that is happy, strong, energetic and performing better? It just doesn’t make sense.
I just don’t understand why JYP hasn’t hired on dietitians and personal trainers for the girls from the get go since he’s so health conscious. He installed that organic cafe in the JYP building but bans the trainees from eating there instead of putting low-cal meals on the menu for them. If the trainees met with dietitians and were taught nutrition & weight management techniques instead of told “get to - kg or else” with no further instruction how they should, I think they’d all be in a much healthier mental place.
bcoz they are insane control freaks, treating their employees as nothing but properties, especially "beauty standards" on women since korea is extremely patriarchal.
Can everybody notice how they were speaking freely and at 9:43 Momo looks beyond the camera, probably because she is being told that they are crossing the line of disclosure and should make it up, and then she suddenly starts saying how that way of training (I would say exploitation) was required and she doesn't mean to cover JYP because actually, that is what she is doing? Chilling
I love how 3mix shared the most memories in their trainee days. It's like their hardships made them stronger and friendship is one of a kind. Momo also got into a lot of hardships and other members too. They really deserve what they have right now and who they are right now❤️
I really think that it's the same problem with all other agencies as well. But I'm glad that TWICE was able to share all this information on Vlive and in the presence of their managers as well. All agencies like YG, SM, JYP, HYBE and others have this sort of weight loss rules but no-one was able to speak like this giving away all the details about their trainee life.
Not even borderline they were clearly abused during their trainee years, but as they are in that culture, in Korea, they are kinda laughing about it. You can see how much they hated the experience when they said they don't want their children to become trainee, talking about how they used to cry regularly during trainee days. Sadly it's still happening.
Not gone to lie: I really would love an unfiltered documentary of their early days. This was a pretty heartfelt reminiscing moment for them. Hope the companies start to improve their approach to weight lose, and also realize that "thicc" girls can be a bonus in foreign markets (nevermind the stigma/health issues).
this reminds me of when my mom and her siblings would bring up messed up childhood trauma stuff and laugh about it and my grandma would cheerfully go “oh, experiences…” // as someone who finds healing in humor i get it, but i just feel so sorry they had to go through all of this in the first place 😩
Then people believed that SM was the only agency with hard training 😅 (much worst those small abusive agency where they physically abused/forced those young kids with big dreams)
Imagine how hard they have gone through. I mean other idols too. But look how they are now. Everything is worth it and it made them a better performers
@@exoada9246 She is not explicitly talking about weight loss. She is talking about all the hardships they went through during their trainee days which made them much stronger. Also since all of them went through this together they were able to better understand their problems which brought them closer. All the idols from other agencies also went through all of this which also made them better and stronger performers.
The bread incident was bulimia. Actually everything they've said was borderline ED 😕 I honestly feel really bad for what they've gone through. Their diets were like for modelling but more hardcore
Do you even know what bulimia is? Don't diagnose people when you're uneducated. Even if she did purge the bread, purging once does not mean you are bulimic. It's not just about the action, ED's are mostly determined by their mental health impact. The physical damage is just on added "bonus". Stop spreading misinformation.
@@greenbeenz2796 hi! Sadly I do know what that is for I am also experiencing the same. Uncontrollable counting of weight and the likes. That's a whole 'nother story. Anyway, sorry if I ever sounded that way or in any way spreading misinformation but i was honestly just expressing myself for the bad experience they've gone through.
@@carlosbernardo1074 Although I still can't figure out why you labeled spitting out food as bulimia, I'm glad you realized that you were misleading people. I hope you can recover soon and let me know if you want me to send you any ed hotline numbers.
@@hyhyhyhyhy1629 ed Trigger warning if you have an ed please, please use your last ounce of judgement before looking at triggering content :] The most common type of bulimia is the purging type, where you consistently over a long period of time use X or X in order to ruin your throat, digestive track, teeth, and your life. The non-purging type of bulimia equally ruins your life in the form of X and X. But it has to be consistent and over a long period of time, not trying to invalidate people who struggle with food that haven't reached an ED, but if you just do one of the X's once or twice that doesn't mean you have an ed. (You should still seek help before it gets bad though or it will be really hard to live)
Knowing all the pain they go through to reach their dreams made me proud and sad at the same time. How I wish Haters will watch this to lighten up their trash mind. Thank you TWICE for staying, I'm wishing for a long time with you cause I stanned you too late. No matter what happen in the future, you will forever be my home. THANK YOU, we assure you that ONCE will always by your side.
This honestly brought tears to my eyes. The way these companies don't even consider the mental and emotional strain they put on extremely young and impressionable kids is quite infuriating. These kids were wayyyy too young to even think rationally! All they wanted was to be a star like their favourite idol. So much so that they would starve themselves for days on end and afraid that they might not wake up in the morning because they're so weak and frail. What could it have cost for the ADULTS to properly monitor their nutrition and exercising regimes in a healthy way? Nothing! This is borderline abuse and yes, bad things in life make you stronger, but at what cost?? They debuted and became wildly successful and I adore each and every one of them, but to go through something as terrible as that is just horrific to me I'm sorry. Having to hide and secretly eat food, Momo nearly starving to death, Sana fainting, Jihyo not even feeling joy when she was selected for TWICE and wondering if all that suffering was worth it. It's just too painful for me to grasp as a ONCE that these people that I admire had to endure such hardships. I just want them to be protected and healthy! On the plus side, they do seem a lot happier now and they have a lot of fans who support them and wish them well. Like us here in the comment section. I just wish that they continue to be healthy and strong and live their lives with bright smiles on their faces and always be the beautiful, talented, strong and amazingly resilient young women that they are.
it's not worth it, at all. and they or many people are still praising that so-called weight loss journey. stop, just stop. i mean of course their efforts & struggles are extremely respectable, but dont endorse this sort of torture anymore by taking this lightly (i really couldn't laugh like them after hearing Momo's story) or with a praising attitude "strong will" or whatever. it's nothing to be proud of or grateful for. these companies are literally killing people, but of course they won't care even if one or two trainees die because they never treat them as humans, they are just dispensable properties/money making machines to the company.
everytime i hear momo's weight loss story i feel bad for her :< imagine being scared of sleeping bc you think you might not wake up the next day in a different country
Its really awful... 1:20 momo said she only had water(ice cubes) for a whole week, no food at all. And she was scared when she went to sleep that she wouldnt wake up again(basically shes saying she thought she might actually die because of starving herself to meet Koreas beauty standards.....) everything she said here honestly sounds like an eating disorder... she even said "i thought i might even get fat from an ice cube".....
This is horrific. I hope that they know now that none of this is funny. That they understand how damaging this was to not just their bodies but their psyche too. Chaeyoung was 15 ffs.
I hate how TWICE have to sugar coat how they were treated as trainees @ 9:40. The manager’s afraid the general public will criticize the girls for talking about their traumatizing experiences, but everyone, especially those who bully idols over visuals / weight, should hear the process that was required to meet their unrealistic expectations. And JYPE is even worse for catering to these weirdos in the first place.. horrific all around.
Them frantically backtracking after the manager scolded them is so sad.. I hope they will at least live healthily from now on and do whatever they want without worries.
Sounds like it was a lot of water weight. Which can be hard on the kidneys among things but can also be fatal if the electrolytes get too far out of whack. When I’m super busy I can lose 3 pounds in a day by dehydration . I hope it doesn’t do long term damage
Instead of telling trainees to lose weight, they should have made healthy diet plan and implement it some time before showcase or sth. This would make a huge difference. Trainees could lose weight easily and healthily. What kind of crazy ass people r in management now?
There is an old video of BG's CEO criticizing the members for not being slender enough. There is also an old video of a manager severely criticizing Seolhyun in early days for eating pizza someone else brought. It's hard to watch. I think it's common in the industry.
I went through something very similar to Momo in two months I think so. I just remember the first two weeks because then my brain literally didn't work.
