SBS Plus·ENA “I Am Solo”

As “I Am Solo” 32nd cohort participant Young-suk was crowned the first-impression favorite, renewed attention is focusing on the fact that she previously lost 74kg.

On the SBS Plus·ENA variety show “I Am Solo” that aired on the 3rd, the 32nd cohort divorced-singles special was unveiled.

Appearing in a pink dress that day, Young-suk introduced herself as a vocal major and captured attention by demonstrating polished vocals.

In the first-impressions pick, she received selections from Young-soo, Young-sik, and Kyung-soo, earning three votes in total. All three male contestants explained their choice by saying, “Her smile was pretty,” and in particular, Young-sik expressed strong interest, saying, “I’d like to talk more in the evening as well.”

Immediately after the broadcast, online communities also buzzed over Young-suk’s past record. Some netizens shared profile photos from when Young-suk had worked as a show host.

In the self-introduction section of the released photos, the phrase “A total loss of 74kg, from 130kg down to 56kg” caught the eye.

Photos from the time when she majored in vocal music and performed on stage were also released. She appeared relatively chubbier than now, but her defined features and bright smile were not much different from today.

Netizens who saw this reacted with comments such as, “A 74kg loss is truly amazing,” “She was pretty even when she was chubby,” “A beauty is a beauty even with weight on,” and “Her determination is remarkable.”

Meanwhile, the romance of the 32nd cohort’s divorced men and women will continue on June 10 at 10:30 p.m. on SBS Plus·ENA’s “I Am Solo.”
