Netizens immediately began to express worry over Wendy's health, with many saying she looks "concerningly thin":

"Oh my, it’s really concerning... ㅠㅠ" "Wow, I'm shocked at how thin she is..."

"This is really dangerous, it's so extreme"

"Is there no one around her who can help her...?"

"Red Velvet's comeback is coming up soon, so she really needs her stamina. I hope she stays healthy.ㅠㅠ " "It looks like she really doesn't have a single ounce of body fat... ㅠㅠ"

"I gasped out loud when I saw these photos. This goes way beyond just being 'really thin', doesn't it? It's surprising that she can even function in daily life" "She is painfully thin ㅠㅠㅠ I really hope she stays healthy"

"Whoa... Don't they also say photos make people look bigger than they are in real life? But if THAT is what 'bigger' looks like... ㅠㅠ......" "If it looks this extreme even in photos... she really should gain some weight for the sake of her health" "I don't know the reason why she's lost so much weight, but...ㅠㅠ I hope she's taking care of her health" "These days, celebrities seem to feel pressured to be dangerously thin" "Wow... I usually listen to Wendy's radio show on my way home from work, and she always sounds so energetic that I never imagined she was this thin. This is really extreme"

"I'm so shocked, I can barely recognize her now"

"The version of Wendy I'm used to looking at has completely disappeared.. It's like looking at a stranger now"

"Ah... it looks like she's lost all her muscle mass too.." "People say 'fans complain if their idol gains weight and complain if they lose weight,' but when has Wendy ever gained weight? She's never been this thin before; it would be strange NOT to worry"
