K-Pop’s beloved diva and actress IU is seemingly shrinking, and no, that’s not a metaphor for anything.

The unexpected revelation immediately became a hot topic across online forums. IU, who is known for her petite frame, has previously mentioned on variety shows that her weight hovers around the 44kg mark. Despite having lost a few inches, according to the singer’s own admission, people were more shocked by the fact that her height was in the 160s range, and not the 150s.

The fact that IU, who has been very meticulous about managing her physique since her debut, has actually lost a few millimeters has left many fans baffled and concerned.

  • “I thought she was 155.”
  • “Wow, her body looks really small, but she isn’t short.”
  • “Cute.”
  • “Looks like she might turn 160.”
  • “Do you guys think she looks short? I feel like she looks exactly that height, though?”

However, according to various medical studies, around 80% of human beings lose a little bit of their height as they age gradually.

While her physical frame might have reduced a bit, IU’s repertoire as an artist has only reached new heights in the last year, especially with Life Gives You Tangerines. This year, she has already made a music comeback with A Flower Bookmark 3 and is expected to appear in a new K-Drama with Byeon Woo Seok.
