The proportion of obese men in Seoul was found to be more than double that of women.

1. Hannams thumping tsk tsk 

2. Yet those f*ckers claim it’s easy to lose weight. We need to start a campaign refraining them to sit in subways’ seats to make them work out 

3. Fat men need to be stopped. I’ve seen so many cases of fat men with malnourished women 

4. Go lose some weight 

5. Isn’t it harder for men to gain weight too?

6. It feels like the concentration of bad things in Seoul is getting higher and higher..

7. Those pig Hannams ugh… 

8. They’re probably coping saying it’s all muscles. Ugh, I can smell the sweat of a chubby guy just from the article

9. They don’t have hormonal issues like women do, so why on earth are they defying nature and gaining weight? Just how much are they stuffing their faces, and how lazily are they living?

10. Are they bulking up and expanding horizontally because they can’t get taller?
