Kim Ji-won’s latest appearance is drawing intense attention, with fans voicing concern over her visibly slimmer frame after a Vogue Hong Kong post began circulating online.

On the 24th, Vogue Hong Kong’s official social media shared a video of Kim Ji-won attending a recent high jewelry event in Milan, Italy. The event marked the launch of luxury jewelry brand Bulgari’s new collection, and Kim joined as a brand ambassador.

In the clip, Kim Ji-won stuns in a blue dress with a plunging neckline, paired with statement jewelry that elevates her elegant aura. The styling emphasized her sharp, straight shoulders and collarbone line, instantly drawing the eye.

However, some fans expressed worry that she appeared even thinner than before. With her collarbones and arm lines especially pronounced, comments poured in such as “She’s too skinny” and “I hope she isn’t unwell.” Online, reactions like “She’s lost so much weight” and “I didn’t recognize her at first” continued to spread.

Past remarks from Kim have also resurfaced. During the filming of the drama ‘Queen of Tears,’ she revealed that she had managed her weight for about a year to better fit the costumes, maintaining a strict diet. Some speculate that her current change could also be part of preparations for an upcoming role.

Kim Ji-won is set to star in the SBS drama Doctor X: Age of the White Mafia, which is currently aiming to air in the second half of this year.
