On the latest episode of the radio show ‘Cultwo Show’, SISTAR’s Soyou expresses that she lost 10 kg (22 lbs) for her solo comeback.

This marks Soyou’s comeback in two years, delighting fans. The lead vocalist of the well-loved SISTAR explains that her new song “PDA” is the English acronym of public display of affection, alluding to a sweet track where lovers do not hold back in their expressions of love. While she was initially worried that she would not be able to pull off this R&B track, a genre she has never attempted, she likes a challenge and went forward with it when others confirmed that she pulls it off.

Soyou also talks about her weight loss, stating that she lost 10 kg gradually from January to June. With a detailed long-term plan, she credits her weight loss to a particular food, namely “cucumber boats” that she enjoys.


In her personal YouTube v-log, she details the recipe as follows: peel a cucumber, cut it into half longitudinally, scoop out the inside of the cucumber with a spoon, fill the inside of the cucumber with chicken breast or tuna, and add a sauce made of spring-roll peanut sauce, dark soy sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, perilla seed powder, and Chinese vinegar.


Soyou’s “PDA” is available on all major streaming platforms.
