Soyou gave advice about weight and more to fans.

In the video for 'The Star Magazine' above, Soyou personally reads questions from fans and responds with her sincere advice or song lyrics they might relate to. On a question about weight and exercise, she expressed, "This is very important. Weight is not important at all. I weight in the upper 50kgs (110lbs) right now. I don't look that way, right? It's because I have a lot of muscle."

Soyou continued, "You just need to lose body fat. Even if it's the same weight, the bodies of those with and without muscles are so different... You lost body fat but don't gain muscles because you're not eating enough. When muscles go up, body fat is lost."

Watch Soyou's segment above, and let us know what you think in the comments below.

Exactly! And muscle burns more calories at rest so you can eat more and not starve yourself.

Muscles are more dense than fat, therefore they take up less space, and they also have more dynamic tissue, while fat is stored at rest. It's still possible to gain muscle mass while being in a deficit, it's just a lot harder compared to being in a surplus. Ffor example, this is a before/after of the same person and she weighs the same (63kg) in both pictures
