South Korean actress Kim Ji-won has become the subject of widespread online discussion after recent public appearances prompted concern from some fans about her appearance. The Queen of Tears star drew attention following appearances at a luxury jewellery event in Milan and in a recent interview with Elle Korea, where social media users commented on what they described as a noticeably slimmer look.
Clips and photos from the events quickly spread across TikTok, X and Korean online forums including Nate, with some viewers saying the actress appeared unusually thin or 'unrecognisable' compared with previous appearances. Others defended the actress and argued that lighting, makeup, camera angles and high-definition video may have exaggerated changes in her appearance.
