On Sunday, November 24, NMIXX's Sullyoon responded to a message she received on the fan community platform, Bubble. One fan commented that she looked like she had gained weight and further stated that her recent alleged weight gain had caused her dance movements to slow down, thereby affecting her performances.
Here's what the fan said:
LOL, you've gained weight lately, so your movement has slowed down a little, so I won't touch you.
In response, the idol replied with a tear face emoji and asked the fan whether they were referring to her weight gain or theirs. She then clapped back at the netizen for their disrespectful comment. Sullyoon stated that these comments don't affect or hurt her since they come from someone who lacks basic manners.
"LOL, And I don't get hurt by what someone who doesn't follow basic manners says!! You don't have to worry too much haha. I've mentioned that you should think about it again. Thank you always."
