What’s going on with Park Min Young? Why is the actress concerning people with a dramatically thinner look? Is there cause for concern over her health from fans? Most importantly, how is she addressing all the online speculation?
The Korean actress recently made a public appearance at a press conference for her upcoming K-drama Confidence Queen in Seoul, Korea, where her thin figure was immediately noticed by the public. Following that appearance, Park Min Young posted comments in an Instagram post addressing fans’ concern, indicating reasons for less weight, and indicating she is okay.
Fans’ Reactions
Following Park Min Young’s appearance at the Confidence Queen press conference, fans quickly flocked to social media to express concern over her noticeably slim figure. Many highlighted her protruding collarbones, visible ribs, and thin arms, with comments describing her as “too skinny” or “fragile.”
Fans showed both care and affection in their messages:
“Sister, please gain weight and stay healthy ”
“Always beautiful, don’t worry—just stay healthy and be happy. We love you, our hardworking actress! ”
“Your health is the most important thing! Your happiness makes me happy! Thank you for your love always! ”
This isn’t the first time Park Min Young has faced such reactions. Last year, she underwent a significant weight transformation for her role in Marry My Husband, which drew praise for her dedication but also concern from fans about the toll on her health. Social media once again became a platform for fans to voice their worry, reflecting how deeply they care about the actress’s well-being and happiness.
Park Min Young’s Statement
Responding to the buzz, Park Min Young took to her Instagram to address fans’ concerns directly. She explained that her recent weight loss was due to preparation for her upcoming role in Siren.
“I am following a healthy diet for my character in Siren, but due to a hectic schedule, I ended up losing a bit more weight than planned,” she wrote. “I am eating three full meals a day, so please don’t worry.”
The actress also encouraged fans to stay excited for her projects, adding, “Please look forward to Confidence Queen, Siren, and my upcoming appearances on variety shows.” Her statement reassured fans that, despite the noticeable change in her appearance, her health remains a priority.
Upcoming Projects & Roles
Park Min Young may be busy with several exciting projects this year.
Confidence Queen marks her return to the small screen, where she plays Yoon Yi-rang, a brilliant con artist who uses her two partners to expose villains and take back their con-artist money. The drama began streaming on September 6 and has already created a buzz with fans.
In Siren, Park Min Young portrays Han Seol-ah. Preparing for this role required a strict meal plan, a demanding schedule and the resulting weight loss. Despite the challenges of delivering a compeling performance she has lost considerable weight.
She will also star in a new variety show on tvN where she will manage a beauty salon in New York with Ra Mi-ran and Joo Jong-hyuk. The program will highlight her character beyond acting and allow fans to see a different side of stardom.
Past Work & Experience
Park Min Young has a solid reputation in the action-romance genre, with roles in spectacular dramas like Healer with Ji Chang Wook, City Hunter with Lee Min Ho, and Marry My Husband, in which she played a very difficult role requiring heavy weight change.
What makes Park Min Young really stand out is her range as an actress, fully transitioning in gendered storylines; she can flawlessly play a sweet girl or, “bad girl” characters, without hesitation and dedication/depth.
These past performances indicate full commitments to varying kinds of performances while providing great appeal to an audience.
Press Conference & Public Appearance
Park Min Young turned heads with her nude-color mermaid dress while attending the press conference for Confidence Queen at the Stanford Hotel in Sangam-dong, Seoul, adding another elegant and polished look to her already sophisticated style. The halter dress highlighted her shoulders and collarbones and added to her graceful and elegant presence on stage, while only minimalist jewelry and nude-colored heels rounded out the look.
While the general reception of her outfit and visuals was wide-spread praise for elegance and charm and there is also the fact that she has been actively looking for work since before the pandemic, her noticeably slim figure drew renewed concern from fans and social media with most of the comments directed toward health and newly added question of overall well-being.
