F.CUZ’s Yejun revealed in a recent interview that he lost around 15kg (~33 lbs) while developing anorexia through his diets. “I managed not to collapse physically, but (in spirit) I did.”
F.CUZ's agency decided to put the members on a diet while they were not busy with promotions. The members started trying to lose weight by having meals of salad or fruit.
Yejun confessed, "After having removed almost all meat from my diet, I started developing symptoms that were similar to anorexia.” He also added, “After I was allowed meat again, I still thought that if I’d eat meat I’d get fat again, so I deliberately tried throwing up."
The diet was comparable to a "war against meat." Yejun explained that the members would weigh themselves every morning, holding a contest for the most weight lost. “We lied about our weight and became motivated by each others’ results, inspiring us to eat even less. It became a more violent 'battle' than if we would have compared ourselves to another group. If I look back, our results were almost the same."
Ever since F.CUZ's schedule started filling up again, “I’ve become able to eat normally without gaining weight." Worried fans can rest assured, Yejun noted that “I wouldn’t be able to stand starving like that again."
What do you think of Yejun's story? Do you find this surprising?
