Bang Si Hyuk Faces Photoshop Controversy Amid Rapid Weight Loss

Bang Si Hyuk’s newly sculpted jawline and slimmer physique have drawn attention, even when standing next to the young members of TXT.

This transformation came after a controversial moment on August 29, when Bang Si Hyuk posted a photo with AI expert Andrew Ng, leading to accusations of digital manipulation. Skepticism arose because the image seemed vastly different from a paparazzi shot taken on August 7in which Bang Si Hyuk appeared with a noticeably fuller figure.

However, as Bang Si Hyuk continued appearing publicly sporting his new look, the Photoshop rumors gradually faded.

Bang Si Hyuk’s dramatic weight loss has sparked a flurry of reactions online, with fans and netizens commenting things like, “Did he take weight loss medication?” “How did he lose so much weight so quickly?” and “Did he try Wegovy?” expressing their surprise.

Meanwhile, Tomorrow X Together (TXT), a five-member boy band under BigHit Entertainment (now known as HYBE), debuted in 2019. TXT recently wrapped up its world tour, TOMORROW X TOGETHER WORLD TOUR—EP.2 – IN INCHEON, which took place from Friday to Sunday at the Inspire Arena in Incheon.
