[instiz] BANG SIHYUK, DID HE FAIL AT DIETING AGAIN… AGE-DEFYING IDOL STYLING

June 11, 2026

A video showing HYBE Chairman Bang Sihyuk looking heavier has been released and is garnering attention.

Recently, a netizen posted a short video on their social media with the caption, “Saw Bang Sihyuk at Weverse Con.”

In the video, Bang Sihyuk caught the eye with a casual styling accented by a beret and glasses. The footage captured him moving while carrying a large tote bag with a keyring, and his current appearance, appearing slightly heavier than before, was also observed. Bang Sihyuk had previously made headlines last year for his noticeable weight loss.

At the time, his sharper jawline and slimmer appearance drew attention, leading to online reactions such as “He looks unrecognizable.” Bang Sihyuk has revealed his successful weight loss through dieting on several occasions in the past, but was subsequently spotted gaining weight again. It appears he is once again struggling to maintain his diet this time.

1. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ He’ll cry

2. This person will never have as much buzz factor as Min Heejin ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. This is the reason why ChatGPT will never replace journalists…

4. For real, he doesn’t dress like that in real life right? Does he really dress like that with his own volition?

5. He’s gaining weight again?

6. He really looks like Pat & Matt

7. I thought he succeeded at dieting? Compared to the way he looked before, where he was struggling even walking… He looks a lot slimmer

8. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

9. Maybe because I just hate Bang Sihyuk so much, but I wouldn’t even care if another pig wore something like that, but because he’s the one wearing this outfit, I’m getting so triggered. It’s like I can’t even bare looking at him

10 Is he wearing this because he “lost” weight? ㅋ
