He was also passive-aggressive.
In the latest episode of SBS‘S Four Men of Dolsingmixed group TYPHOONthe singer of Solbi revealed that she has been focusing on weight loss since she last appeared on the same show in 2023.
While Solbi said she puts a lot of effort into working out to improve her health, she also shared a heartbreaking story about how a stranger she met on a blind date called her fat and ended up motivating her to lose weight.
Show host Take Jae Hoon—who had also made fun of Solbi for having “enlarged” when she appeared on her YouTube channel, I thought that her motivation to lose a whopping 15 kilos must be due to two reasons.
Solbi agreed and said that before she lost weight, she went on a blind date. According to Solbi, the date asked her for her home address. At first, she wasn’t sure of his intentions, but when she received a package of weight-loss supplements as a “gift,” she realized he was putting her down for her weight.
Lee Sang-Min: Usually, though, people need motivation to lose weight. Something that fuels the weight loss, or maybe it’s out of spite.
Solbi: Yes, Tak Jae Hoon gave me motivation. When I was on his YouTube show, he said that I had ‘enlarged.’ After that, everyone kept telling me that. So… I was going to prove myself to him and… beat him up.
Take Jae Hoon: Look, when it comes to losing weight… It’s usually one of two reasons. One, something hits you, and you think, “Now or never.” And eventually you do. Or, two, someone dumps you.
That date and his gift became one of the many reasons that drove Solbi to focus on losing weight. Keeping herself busy with a handful of exercises like pilates, tennis, hiking, trekking and more, Solbi lost 33 pounds (15 kilograms). Out of spite, when her date tried to get back in touch with her after her transformation, Solbi told him that she was no longer interested in dating him!
