Song Ji Hyo’s weight has been revealed on the popular variety show Running Man… again.
In the July 8 broadcast of SBS’ Running Man, the members were given 10,000 won and tasked with buying and consuming food with the money to increase their total weight by 1 kg.
At having to step on a scale to reveal her weight, Song Ji Hyo was taken aback saying, “Don’t do this.”
In the end, with a begrudging look on her face, Song Ji Hyo stepped on the scale with a producer. The total weight came out to be 153.55kg and with the producer revealing his weight as 100 kg it was deduced Song Ji Hyo’s real weight was 53.5kg.
Following the episode’s broadcast, JYJ’s Kim Jae Joong, who is also part of the same agency as Song Ji Hyo, humorously tweeted a supportive message for the actress giving the excuse, “Ji Hyo noona was carrying gold inside her shoes, clothes, hat, microphone and bag. She told me the gold weighed over 4kg.”
The incident wasn’t the first time Song Ji Hyo suffered embarrassment over her true weight as a mission in the same show last year had her stepping on a scale to reveal her weight at 52.5kg which was a few kilograms different from her official profile weight of 46kg.

Mong Ji Hyo<3
South Korea's obsession with weight is disturbing on so many levels. Actually, their obsession with appearance as a whole is unhealthy.
agree
Agree
I could not agree with you more. Not to mention she’s pretty tall, but despite all that, the ideal body-type is apparently SNDS’s girls height… I find that disturbing on so many levels because they ALL weigh around 45-46kgs… but there is a major variation among height… so sad. Girls starving to be thin.
Agreed!
totally true im living in korea and is insane!! the girls are obsess with weight! you can not find sizes Ji hyo is perfect for her size but here the trend is being like a skeleton
Korean guys are obsessed with weight too!
And that probably explains Jaejoong’s, Junsu’s and Yoochun’s extreme weight loss…
ooooh but she looks thin … anyway she is beautiful n cute even without any make up on
weight is only #……… she is still beautiful ………..nothing to be concerned & worried………….. cheer up Song Ji Hyo…!!!!!
I think 53 kg es thin…koreans have a strange view on weight…besides, JiHyo is pretty and she looks really well
Meh, I’d kill for her weight tbqh
hahahahha actually jaejoong is so cut………..e XDDD
he tweeted so randomly and giving her excuse XD
JiHyo nuna yeppeo ^^ I don’t care about ur weight, u still be my role model, hehehehe
Lovely Jaejoong supportive tweet
BMI is more relevant, weigh alone meaningless.
Yet 53.5kg ladies living in North Eastern Asia is not easy,
not enough body fat to fight against temp below -10c in winter!
This explained our curiosity upon Jaejoong’s celebrity friend Kim Hyun Joong, who performed at Shengyang recently, he said Shengyang weather was extremely chilling & challenging. Well, he was also born as North Eastern, how come ” afraid ” of chill weather ? BMI too low perhaps
Sung JH noona, pls give up the myth about 46 kg , this may give you osteoporosis before age 40. This is the real nightmare & incurable critical illness to most Asian women.
Treasure your body, its yr life long companion
Let’s get up dancing, jogging, swimming, summer is saying hello to us noona
She is beautiful, strong, healthy. I think she is about 30 years old, and 53 kg is not that much to begin with. Rather, she has some meat on her bones than being skeletal. She is probably shying away from her real weight because of the cultural/industry pressure walking around a skinbag full of bones type of beauty. Also, I have been watching RM for a while, and she kicks some real ass in strength and smarts comparing with all those men on the show.
Unnie is beautiful at any weight, don’t be embarrassed, you are still the ace of running man!!
she’s 117lb. unless her height is like 3ft she shouldn’t feel embarrassed.
weight number is just number, don’t to over obsessive with it^^ just keep your weight proportional
Weight and age are sensitive to women, they shouldn’t have made her step on a scale. But her weight, even if it’s ~53kg, is still normal and she doesn’t look fat at all. Jae baby was giving excuses on Ji Hyo’s behalf. ^^
THIS COMMENT IS DISTURBING! >>> “The incident wasn’t the first time Song Ji Hyo suffered embarrassment over her true weight..”
OMGOSH! Are these people crazy! This woman has NOTHING TO BE ASHAMED OF!
AND I KNOW WELL this is a cultural issue but seriously do they really consider this woman overweight????
The woman is 5 feet 6 inches tall and she only weights 116 pounds!!!! 53KG is 116 POUNDS!!! If her previous weight was 46KG that means this woman at 5’6″ only weighed 101 POUNDS!
She is a healthy beautiful 31 year-old woman, who at 116 pounds has a beautiful svelte, curvy, yet firm, body.
Song Ji Hyo is…. PLEASE UNII CLOSE YOUR EARS TO THIS MADNESS!
Here is SONG JI HYO in May 2012 modeling some clothing. See… God Forbid that as a 31 year-old woman I might actually have the body of a woman that actually looks good full of curves, with firm thighs, hips and slim arms that I can wear sleeveless outfits with and ohhh forgive me for looking all healthy instead of like an emaciated bag of bones…
@A Friend of JYJ
i remember her at princess hours drama. i thought she’s not korean, she doesn’t really look korean girl.
SJH is pretty girl at young age, and becoming prettier now as a woman
@astrid
She has a natural, youthful beauty about her. You can see this in JYJs In Heaven MV. I did not even recognize her there at first because she looked so young, compared to her portrayal of the Queen in Frozen Flowers. Frozen Flowers was the first time I was introduced to her, and that movie was so provocative.. one could not imagine the same actress now playing Junsu’s girlfriend in JYJs MV. I think she is underrated and underutilized in the SK movie/drama industry… she is quirky, yet you can tell she has an intensity about her. I really like her.
She is more beautiful than most skinny korean actresses (most of the time they look the same to me)… the first time I saw her in In Heaven MV I thought: wow, she’s so pretty…
LOL @ Jae Joong’s tweet. And I don’t really find Ji Hyo overweight. She seems to have a pretty ideal weight to me.
nah i think jihyo isn’t embarassed with her weight, the fact that she makes a joke with it and willing to reveal it to public proves it. she’s that cool, not everyone can be running man only female member.
ace fighting!
Of course.
She’s very cool. She even often revealed her no make-up face in Running Man. Even the Running Man staff are more worried for her than herself.
well, it’s a just a number.. cheers up Ji Hyo
53 kg it’s not overweight at all..and she looks very pretty, healthy and amazing. I would rather prefer to be Ji Hyo rather than those skinny idol… And not to mention Ji Hyo is natural pretty without all the make up… Sometimes i feel bothered when the idol guests came to RM and all the RM members praise the idol is so pretty and all but for me Ji Hyo is the prettiest.
And JJ is very sweet to tweet about this…maybe one of his way to cheering up Ji Hyo too… Cheer up ji hyo unnie~ x)
53.5… thats my weight!! with my ~160 my weight is just below ideal according to BMI calculations… but now I feel very heavy??? S.Korean weight-hysteria </3
Song Ji Hyo looks great – beautiful & healthy. & it was sensitive, kind & thoughtful of Jaejoong to support her like that.
If @AFriendOfJYJ’s pix of her is 117 lbs worth of body, Hell I’d gladly look that thin. Damn people that think celebrities have to have picture-perfect bodies…. You can have a nice body and NOT be 98 lbs! Geez, she’d blow away if she was any lighter, especially if she’s not very tall.
i dont ever care about her weight at all…i am searching this because of the following ep where jihyo was infuriated with the PD…
