NMIXX’s Haewon is drawing voices of concern from fans after showing a slimmer appearance than before. Haewon attracted attention by attending the “2026 THE FACT MUSIC AWARDS,” held on the 19th at Busan Asiad Main Stadium, with a body shape that had become thinner than before. In a group photo taken with the members, in which her whole body was captured, the change stood out even more. Although it may be possible that the difference was influenced by the shooting environment, it gives a clearly different impression from the appearance captured by the camera about one month ago. Recently, in the entertainment world, a phenomenon in which an excessively thin body shape is seen as an extreme standard of beauty has been spreading, whether for actors or singers. In particular, idols have relatively many fans in their teens and twenties, and they can have a considerable influence not only on music and fashion but also on body shape. Since Haewon’s weight change and health condition have not been directly revealed by herself, it is not possible to judge accurately by speculation alone. However, because a rapid change that has occurred recently can be seen, fans’ concern is naturally spreading as well. While an excessively thin body shape is being treated as one aesthetic standard, voices are also being raised that the healthy appearance of idols is important as well. ・NMIXX Haewon’s live broadcast was disrupted by laser light... fans are also angry at the malicious act ・NMIXX Haewon, an intellectual-type girl with rimless glasses!?
