(G)I-DLE's Yuqi shared some tough stories about her trainee days and the strict dieting rules she faced.

On July 12th, a video featuring Yuqi was posted on the YouTube channel '집대성'. In the video, Yuqi talked about how hard it was to diet as a female idol trainee.

She said, "When I was a trainee, we had to weigh ourselves every Saturday. I always felt so sick on those days." Daesung, who was also in the video, felt for her and said, "Weighing yourselves every week? That’s really tough."

Yuqi then mentioned, "Miyeon unnie told me that YG trainees weigh themselves every day." Daesung replied, "We wouldn’t know. It seems like female trainees had it tougher."

Daesung asked, "You must have become an expert at losing weight. What was the most effective method?"

Yuqi answered, "I really became an expert. After eating during Chuseok, I gained a lot of weight. They printed our weights and posted them in front of the office." She explained that everyone could see her weight.

She added, "At that time, seniors like BTOB, Pentagon, and HyunA sunbaenim could see it as they passed by, so I lost 5kg in three days. We had to reach our target weight before they would take the printout down. I still can’t forget that experience."

Actor Lee Min Ho recently shared an unforgettable and embarrassing moment from his early career, revealing how he became a “falling star” at his first Baeksang Arts Awards.

On the December 25th episode of You Quiz on the Block (Episode 274), Lee Min Ho made a guest appearance and reflected on his rise to fame.

The actor, known for his iconic role as Goo Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, won the Best New Actor award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, but it wasn’t just his victory that grabbed attention.

Lee Min Ho recalled, "I was attending the Baeksang for the first time, and I was so excited. Since I wasn’t going as Goo Jun Pyo, but as Lee Min Ho, I styled my hair in a perm and was ready to go." However, things took an unexpected turn when he tripped and fell on the red carpet.

He sighed, recalling, "That day, I fell. I fell and created so many memes. Even now, I look back and think, 'How did I walk that quickly on the red carpet?'"

Laughing at his own clumsiness, he admitted, "I was moving at the speed of light, no composure, no focus. Honestly, more than the joy of winning the award, that day was chaotic and so embarrassing for me."

Though his win was a highlight, Lee Min Ho humorously shared that the incident of tripping overshadowed the excitement of his achievement.

It’s safe to say that while the fall became a funny meme, it also became a lesson in humility for the actor, and a moment that fans still remember to this day.
