Literally 30% or more of Americans are overweight which clearly affects the average to be in a heavier direction. If you actually want a more realistic "normal heathy" average comparison, then use countries that weren't conquered by fast food capitalism.
That's not an exact equation though. There are idols under 150cm and none weights less than 30kg. The usual rule is that you have to weight less than 50/45kg depending on the company etc EDITS: some corrections

They do though. The males who are so tall are expected to be around 55 to 65kg and women are expected to be below 50. As Asians thinness is a character achievement. It's sad.
In our country, being under fifty kilos means being really thin. In this case, our parents may even consult a doctor to gain weight, but in Korea, this is considered normal and people want to be robotized. This is sad, no matter how normal it seems in Korea, very serious diseases can occur.
I will have to weight like 78 pounds but a healthy weight for my height is like 90 to 110, If I ever get to 78 pounds I will be severely underweight, starved and probably diying 😅
The kpop industry really expects these grown women to weigh the same as middle/high schoolers and have the energy to train from morning to night. No wonder why people are breaking down, holy shit.
given their body composition developing children’s healthy weight ranges are usually slightly lower than adults too. it would be even more unhealthy for an adult to weigh the same as an elementary schooler, even if they’re the same height
I once was what would be the ideal weight for K-pop not by dieting but due to an illness. I hated it and thought I looked ugly took me a year to get back to what I consider my normal weight.

I’m a 5’4 woman and in high school I weighed about 100 pounds. I was extremely thin, and had very little muscle. I was severely underweight, lost my period and my doctor actually advised me to eat fatty proteins like peanut butter and avocados to gain weight. I was so malnourished I became sick and my blood platelets were so low they advised to stay home for several days to recover, saying that if they were any lower I would have been hospitalized. Never in my life have I been praised for my body and complimented as much as I was when I was thin and sick
Yeah, same as me. I think that 32kg is just the weight of my bones and skin, without taking into account the vital organs. Literally, incompatible with life 😱
the exat same with me, as i have a height of 152 cm and im16 yo. however, all my life ive been slightly under weight and i never naturally weighed that little, not until i reached the peak of my ed (recovering now, and incomparably happy and live full), which just by it self shows how f up k pop standards trully are. they thrive for skiness. there isn't, sadly, any other way to put it and any one how says or actually makes one self believe that it can be achieved healthily or naturally is in one, beeing actively naive and two, diminishing the struggle and deprivation state of those affected by ed and this standards and ultimately even the k idols them selves. dont blind yourselves, please, acceptence and inaction only contributes and encorages ed voice and feed into this inhumane standards. personally, w my experience i genuinely sentiment kpop idols the most, because as i was able and permitted to heal i KNOW that they do not share and possess that option due to the industry in wich they rely on, unfortunately. please remember to be extremely kind, observant and considerate. i know i would've died if there had been indiference or enablence to me and what was happening by those around me. dont contribut to the cicle, is has made enough damage to enough lives
The fact that my kpop ideal weight would be around 50kg and the weight doctor said I should have to have "healthy weight" is from 60 to even 68kg is CRAZY. 💀
@@pqono "the companies arent abusing them" broo 😭😭 have u heard a Single thing about kpop companies. They re notorious for the abuse they make their idols go thru
I would have to be 60 pounds...when I had an eating disorder, the doctors told me I was on my death bed at 73 pounds and said if I lost one more ounce, I'd be rushed to the ER
Also jeongyeon,jimin,etc(I think a stray kid's member also got hate for his body).That's disgusting.They should focus on their talents and music instead of their physical appearance.
I'm 5'5" so they'd want me to be 99lbs 💀 I've been 115-120lbs since middle school and my doctor asked if i was eating enough 😭 idk what she'd do if i showed up under 100lbs
They use the same formula for ballet and rhythmic gymnastics both of which I’ve been doing for 9 years and if you’re used to it it’s not actually that little. Like we’ve had girls who were way less than their needed weight and I am currently also at needed weight (175cm-120=55kg)
These expectations are honestly so unrealistic that even companies themselves go out of their way to lie about their idols' weight on their profiles, just to fit them into these expectations that THEY THEMSELVES have created 💀
The ideal kpop weight is not to eat, not to drink anything, so you can be just like a doll and an object to serve other people and get the industry more money
@@MadaraUchiha... actually, society pressure is forcing them...there's just one ideal body type, and when you don't have this body type, you are judged by everyone else I hear judgments myself, like "you should eat less", "you look fat, I know a nutritionist", "you look ugly in these clothes, you should lose some weight" , etc etc. And I hear them almost everyday... But maybe you haven't experienced anything like that
@@HS-oo5br the way i see it, if you dont offer a practical solution that will work, youre not discussing a problem, youre just complaining. I dont have to experience something to know it is bad. I just dont think discussions are worth much if not a whole lot can be done about.
Me (25 born and raised in Hawaii) and my grandpa (93 only live in Japan) were hanging out. I clearly gained weight and am now 86kg/190lbs. He said to me smiling “even though you’re fat you’re still cute!” And then he proceeded to call me his bodyguard 😂 I love him so much and that’s really what I needed to hear. He’s the only one in the family that says positive things about my weight. He doesn’t ignore or lie about it cus yes I did gain weight but he only says nice/funny things. I love him so much ❤️
I love the facts that you don’t take the word fat as an insult. People tell me you’re fat but beautiful like WHAT those two have nothing to do with each other. I‘m 5‘7| 1,69 and weight 1,55 lbs/ 70,4kg I think that’s correct idk we use kg and cm here in german. I know I am a bit chubby but for my height that’s completely fine (I also work out regularly) and people need to understand that being fat isn’t a insult it’s a fact but it shouldn’t be seen in a negative context there are so many beautiful people on the heavier spectrum 🫶🏻
I love that he supports you. If you're happy and not experiencing health concerns that's all that matters and shaming doesn't help anyone to reach a healthier goal, they just end up doubling down! I've been gaining weight recently and my mom shames me for it so then I go and eat more with comfort food and stress eating
I’m only 5’0” and this formula puts me at 70lbs. With my muscle mass/body type, at 125 people would tell me I look “so skinny” and to think the formula tells me to lose another 55 lbs!!!
For the BMI chart, we do a simplification (I'm a nursing student) , but it's valid only for women, because for men the numbers are a little more uneven. it's your height in cm minus 110 with the result in kilos . So, basically, kpop companies do the same, but they remove 10 kilos more, which is A LOT, because if you're 170cm (like me), by your BMI you should be 60kg (and I'm 58kg so I'm okay). But if you arrive at 50/48kg you are not in your perfect BMI anymore, you're in the "underweight" category. They can't play like that an give these numbers as truth to people Edit: it seems that my comment got a lot more attention than I expected and there are few confused people, so I'll try to explain here in a less confusing way possible. The official formula for BMI is BMI = kg/m2 , which gives you the number on the BMI chart ( you can check for yourselves what your own number means), not the weight, it just says XX number= over/underweight or normal weight etc.... BUT there are other factors to consider. For example, if a person does sports and has a lot of muscle mass, that person can't rely on the BMI chart alone, that's why, if you go to a dietitian, they will not only calculate your BMI, but they will also calculate your fat mass, your muscle mass, etc... So don't rely on the BMI alone! My comment wes mainly to debunk this new "idol perfect weight" , sort of... Anyway, if you think you need a dietician, don't hesitate to go to one, don't follow a diet by yourself, because the dietician will make you a specialized diet for YOU, to boost your metabolism if it's low, to increase your muscle mass if it's low, etc etc... It's really personalized and even if you don't have to lose or gain weight, I think going to a dietician is a good way to stay healthy and have a healthy diet personalized for yourself.... One last thing I'd like to add... Diet doesn't mean dieting to lose weight... Diet means following a nutrition plan (called "diet") that will be good for your physical and mental health. It's basically your eating habits. Example: chickens have a diet consisting of leafy greens, cooked beans, corn, non-sugary cereals and grains, berries, apples and most other fruits and vegetables etc.. it doesn't mean chickens are trying to lose weight, it just mean that this is what they eat! ☺️ I wish a nice day/night to everyone and thank you for liking my comment in so many! ☺️
The bmi is a bulshit chart bc it never takes muscle into consideration so I'm technically overweight and my doctor tell me I should consider losing weight when I have a healthy diet and exercise, there's honestly better ways to decide someone health than by their weight
i’m 5’1 and i weigh 96 pounds, it’s so crazy that i would be considered fat when i am literally underweight and a runner. these standards are so unhealthy.
That’s the thing. You’ve already failed to be the ideal body type by being short. Their formula doesn’t take anyone under a certain height into consideration because you’d br eliminated on that front alone.
Yhea I rember being that light. I was like 800 pounds at 5'2. I rember getting out of breath walking up the stairs. I would black out exercising I'm actually overweight now and wail I can't run as long anymore I've never felt healthier. I can lift weights I can stay awake I couldn't ever go back
I'm 12 and I'm 57kg 😭😭😭😭 I'm so insecure cuz once my bestie said bro _______ is 50kg wtf so much and I'm 57kg so when they asked how much I am I said idk
YES. THANK YOU. 😭 im a young teen (13 to be exact) but at least i know these are unrealistic standards for most ppl, especially teens as we're still growing
I actually achieved this at my lowest weight (120lbs for a 5'9" person) but I also was cold all the time, got dizzy every time I stood up, didn't get a period and couldn't run or do any sort of exercise without passing out/having to stop. How people can be that underweight AND sing and dance at the same time is beyond me. Edit: Just to be clear, I was anorexic. Plenty of people are naturally skinny; it doesn't mean you're unhealthy if this is where your weight sits when you eat fine and don't overexercise, purge, etc. The problem is when it's expected for everyone to look like that, because most people can only achieve that doing what I did.
@@IDoNotTrainLegs i’m ~104lbs and 5’7 and perfectly healthy. if they’re naturally skinny it’s okay but even with starving i guess their intense discipline and training help them keep up. though some of them do faint and collapse on stage. i hope companies will stop their bad treatment towards idols
@@Uaenarmy74 I'm not an expert, but my friend is the same height and approximately the same weight. She can eat lots of food but she just doesn't gain weight. I think she's rather healthy. but idk what ur body, metabolism ect is like. for some people this weight at this height might be a bit low, but it totally depends on so many factors, so it can be completely healthy! :)
just calculated this and it would put me at a lower weight than when i ended up in the hospital with seizures from not eating or sleeping. i was crying when i got on the scale at that point, i was so afraid. it's a solid 10 pounds below that weight that could have killed me. the k-pop industry is sickening, and i wish the managers' punishments could include this kind of torture & starvation to scare them off of it.
Using that „formula“ I had exactly the „needed“ wheight at the worst point of my ed. That’s just really awful!! I‘m so glad to say that I‘m not even close to that anymore, stay safe loves❤️❤️

When I was "ideal" kpop weight I cried cause my arms were too skinny and I didn't feel good about myself. I've struggled to put on weight my whole life and I've finally done it.
That’s insane. I’m 5’4” and weight 120lbs (bmi 20) and I’m a long distance runner. Apparently, I’d have to lose 27lbs to fit their standard. There’s no way I’d be able to do any kind of physical activity at that weight, and I’d look half dead
To be fair that’s only for kpop artists. The Korean way to find an ideal weight is height in cm-110 which will actually leave you with a healthy body weight.
The korean weight standard also doesn't take into account genetics of different ethnicities, contributing to how we carry weight differently, our muscle masses, if we are more thin or have a tendancy to be more muscular, bone density, we all weigh different weights that are heathy and normal for your body type. And we ALL are different!! We shouldn't all try to be the same, especially when we are all so diverse. I wish Korea would get with health standards and actual logic when it comes to bodies. I happen to have one of those athletic body types, and I know for me personally, the weight would be very unhealthy and dangerous on my body.
It doesn't apply to us. Koreans have narrower bone structure which makes unhealthy for them to gain weight rather than people with broad bone structure.
@മീൻ carrey Although I do grant you that most Koreans seem to be of a more slender build, not all Koreans fit that description. You are also not accounting for mixed race and non-Korean individuals who are being held to the same standards regardless of their build type. Humans are individuals who fluctuate regularly through weight ranges that are affected by a variety of factors that include a lot more than just diet and exercise. Even the type of exercise can affect your weight in different ways depending on how and where you build muscle.
I'm 116 as a 5'11 male teenager my "ideal body weight" using this metric is 135 the healthy weight for a guy of my height is 155-189 so its safe to say im severely underweight 😢
ppl kept telling that i was too skinny cuz im 45kg and the fact that my ideal weight in kpop industry would be 35kg, bro I would be left skin and bones lmao
The fact that you're already 45kg in their eyes would be perfect. For Kpop, it's like no matter how tall you are, anything above 50kg for a woman is unacceptable. 😤
I think the standard for kpop idols are ridiculous but as a european I was more shocked at the average height for 5'4 women in America being 171 lbs. Like that is crazy it is considered normal weight in America when it is overweight in literally anywhere else in the world.
they want a woman built like a child, that's it, im 150cm tall and im at the 50kg weight area, between 55-58kg and its far away from overweight, not to mention this is all just me being a teenage girl
I'm 5'1 and 90 lbs and I'm underweight. At minimum I should be 100 lbs (I used to be, then encountered health issues. Working my way back up). They rly expect someone taller than me to be under 100 lbs??? Thats so incredibly dangerous
And this is accurate. Btw, this is the same beauty standard in China, which I think it's super sick. Any girls in China/korea (commonly if u r above 160cm) should weigh 45kg as their ideal weight. I've seen girls weighing 45kg in 170+cm
Full commentary here: ruclips.net/video/noS2robWQP0/видео.html you’ll be surprised at what you find out
you're right but that's for dancers specifically, I think. The one for the average woman in Korea would be your height in cm minus 115.
Literally 30% or more of Americans are overweight which clearly affects the average to be in a heavier direction. If you actually want a more realistic "normal heathy" average comparison, then use countries that weren't conquered by fast food capitalism.

the exat same with me, as i have a height of 152 cm and im16 yo. however, all my life ive been slightly under weight and i never naturally weighed that little, not until i reached the peak of my ed (recovering now, and incomparably happy and live full), which just by it self shows how f up k pop standards trully are. they thrive for skiness. there isn't, sadly, any other way to put it and any one how says or actually makes one self believe that it can be achieved healthily or naturally is in one, beeing actively naive and two, diminishing the struggle and deprivation state of those affected by ed and this standards and ultimately even the k idols them selves. dont blind yourselves, please, acceptence and inaction only contributes and encorages ed voice and feed into this inhumane standards. personally, w my experience i genuinely sentiment kpop idols the most, because as i was able and permitted to heal i KNOW that they do not share and possess that option due to the industry in wich they rely on, unfortunately. please remember to be extremely kind, observant and considerate. i know i would've died if there had been indiference or enablence to me and what was happening by those around me. dont contribut to the cicle, is has made enough damage to enough lives

These expectations are honestly so unrealistic that even companies themselves go out of their way to lie about their idols' weight on their profiles, just to fit them into these expectations that THEY THEMSELVES have created 💀

He’s the only one in the family that says positive things about my weight. He doesn’t ignore or lie about it cus yes I did gain weight but he only says nice/funny things. I love him so much ❤️
I love the facts that you don’t take the word fat as an insult. People tell me you’re fat but beautiful like WHAT those two have nothing to do with each other. I‘m 5‘7| 1,69 and weight 1,55 lbs/ 70,4kg I think that’s correct idk we use kg and cm here in german. I know I am a bit chubby but for my height that’s completely fine (I also work out regularly) and people need to understand that being fat isn’t a insult it’s a fact but it shouldn’t be seen in a negative context there are so many beautiful people on the heavier spectrum 🫶🏻
I was born and raised in Hawaii too omg!!
I love that he supports you. If you're happy and not experiencing health concerns that's all that matters and shaming doesn't help anyone to reach a healthier goal, they just end up doubling down! I've been gaining weight recently and my mom shames me for it so then I go and eat more with comfort food and stress eating

@@jueunpark7377well as a 5’2” 150Lb girl I am just going to brace my heart if they call 125 Lb chubby.
For the BMI chart, we do a simplification (I'm a nursing student) , but it's valid only for women, because for men the numbers are a little more uneven. it's your height in cm minus 110 with the result in kilos . So, basically, kpop companies do the same, but they remove 10 kilos more, which is A LOT, because if you're 170cm (like me), by your BMI you should be 60kg (and I'm 58kg so I'm okay). But if you arrive at 50/48kg you are not in your perfect BMI anymore, you're in the "underweight" category. They can't play like that an give these numbers as truth to people
Edit: it seems that my comment got a lot more attention than I expected and there are few confused people, so I'll try to explain here in a less confusing way possible. The official formula for BMI is BMI = kg/m2 , which gives you the number on the BMI chart ( you can check for yourselves what your own number means), not the weight, it just says XX number= over/underweight or normal weight etc.... BUT there are other factors to consider. For example, if a person does sports and has a lot of muscle mass, that person can't rely on the BMI chart alone, that's why, if you go to a dietitian, they will not only calculate your BMI, but they will also calculate your fat mass, your muscle mass, etc... So don't rely on the BMI alone! My comment wes mainly to debunk this new "idol perfect weight" , sort of... Anyway, if you think you need a dietician, don't hesitate to go to one, don't follow a diet by yourself, because the dietician will make you a specialized diet for YOU, to boost your metabolism if it's low, to increase your muscle mass if it's low, etc etc... It's really personalized and even if you don't have to lose or gain weight, I think going to a dietician is a good way to stay healthy and have a healthy diet personalized for yourself.... One last thing I'd like to add... Diet doesn't mean dieting to lose weight... Diet means following a nutrition plan (called "diet") that will be good for your physical and mental health. It's basically your eating habits. Example: chickens have a diet consisting of leafy greens, cooked beans, corn, non-sugary cereals and grains, berries, apples and most other fruits and vegetables etc.. it doesn't mean chickens are trying to lose weight, it just mean that this is what they eat! ☺️ I wish a nice day/night to everyone and thank you for liking my comment in so many! ☺️

Edit: Just to be clear, I was anorexic. Plenty of people are naturally skinny; it doesn't mean you're unhealthy if this is where your weight sits when you eat fine and don't overexercise, purge, etc. The problem is when it's expected for everyone to look like that, because most people can only achieve that doing what I did.

To be fair that’s only for kpop artists. The Korean way to find an ideal weight is height in cm-110 which will actually leave you with a healthy body weight.
I'll dare you to go tell my 180cm tall dad that he should weight 60kg -
180 cm would be around 5’11 right correct me if wrong though but I refuse to explain any of this to my 6 foot dad
This is for girls and there are sadly some boy kpop idols that are over 185 and weigh 60 kg
The korean weight standard also doesn't take into account genetics of different ethnicities, contributing to how we carry weight differently, our muscle masses, if we are more thin or have a tendancy to be more muscular, bone density, we all weigh different weights that are heathy and normal for your body type. And we ALL are different!! We shouldn't all try to be the same, especially when we are all so diverse. I wish Korea would get with health standards and actual logic when it comes to bodies. I happen to have one of those athletic body types, and I know for me personally, the weight would be very unhealthy and dangerous on my body.
My skeleton weighs more than my ideal weight, let alone the flesh of me.
It doesn't apply to us. Koreans have narrower bone structure which makes unhealthy for them to gain weight rather than people with broad bone structure.
@മീൻ carrey Although I do grant you that most Koreans seem to be of a more slender build, not all Koreans fit that description. You are also not accounting for mixed race and non-Korean individuals who are being held to the same standards regardless of their build type. Humans are individuals who fluctuate regularly through weight ranges that are affected by a variety of factors that include a lot more than just diet and exercise. Even the type of exercise can affect your weight in different ways depending on how and where you build muscle.
