K-pop fans, brace yourselves! RIIZE’s Wonbin recently spilled the beans about his weight on the latest episode of ‘Hong Seok Cheon’s Jewel Box’ Season 2.

On April 30, the ‘Hong Seok Cheon’s Jewel Box’ YouTube channel dropped the second part of the show featuring RIIZE. In this episode, Wonbin was up next for evaluation by Hong Suk Cheon.

As soon as Wonbin stepped up, Hong Suk Cheon couldn’t help but gush over his good looks, asking, “Did you grow up hearing about how good you look?” to which Wonbin shyly responded, “Um… little bit?”

When quizzed about his best feature, Wonbin pointed out, “My lips are… (my best feature).”

Hong Suk Cheon also noticed that Wonbin has a scar on his eyebrows, adding to his visual charm. Wonbin explained, “When I was young, I was playing around with my older brother and got hurt.”

Then came the moment of truth. Hong Suk Cheon decided to lift Wonbin to guess his weight. He was immediately taken aback by how light Wonbin was, exclaiming, “How are you so light? You’re so light” and added, “I thought Wonbin would weigh more since he has abs and all, but he’s so light.”

Hong Suk Cheon guessed, “(You must weigh) 63 kilograms (138.6 lbs)” but was surprised when Wonbin revealed he was lighter. Wonbin shared, “Around 56 to 57 kilograms (123 to 126 lbs)”

Given that Wonbin’s profile states he is 176cm (5’9") tall, many netizens were taken aback by how slim the RIIZE member is.

Comments ranged from “Wow, he’s so thin” and “How can he be that tall and also be that skinny but still look so good?” to “His weight will be my goal weight.”
