Netizens are flooding the MBC message boards after this weekend’s episode of Music Core. Why? Because they wanted to slam Solbi’s badly swollen face. The singer/host have gained weight in the recent months and according to reports, the viewers were getting distracted by this. Viewers are now calling her “Steamed Solbi”. Like a puffed-up dumpling.

It was rumored before that Solbi may have undergone some plastic procedure on her face. Solbi denied these allegations but netizens seemed to ignore that because there were a lot of plastic-related comments thrown at her at the message boards such as: “The modifications you should have done is for face swelling!” or “You are a dissaponting plastic!”

Solbi cries while talking about her parents’ heatlh difficulties

by heartfacee on January 27, 2010

Solbi revealed the cons of being a celebrity on an episode of Infinity Girls Season 2 . Though she acts tough in front of the camera, this girl is actually quite sensitive.

All of members of the show started to talk about the difficult part about being a celebrity at Kim Na Young’s house. Kim Na Young was recently diagnosed with masked depression, which means that she hides her sadness and pretends to act happy when she’s not. The members were there to support her.

Solbi confessed, “My mother goes through such hard times because I’m a celebrity.“ Her mom was also diagnosed with depression recently but couldn’t go to the hospital too often because her daughter is a celebrity. She didn’t want that kind of news to get out to the press.

Solbi also talked about her father, saying, “I always talk about wanting to get married on shows but it’s because of my father.“ Because her father’s health hasn’t been good recently, the singer has expressed the desire to get married before anything bad happens to him.

Kim Na Young also brought up some heavy stories as well, recounting her mother’s death a week before she entered elementary school.

The episode airs on the 29th; have some tissues ready.
