Singer and actress IU has been practicing a natural Wegovy diet.

On the 20th, IU appeared at a stage greeting for the films "IU Concert: The Golden Hour" and "IU Concert: The Winning," held at CGV Yongsan i-Park Mall.

That day, IU met her fandom, Yoo Ae-na, to celebrate her 18th debut anniversary. When the conversation turned to IU's health and diet, one fan asked IU, "What are you going to eat for dinner tonight?"

In response, IU said, "Well, I think I'll probably just eat boiled eggs." Fans reacted with sympathy upon hearing IU's news.

IU explained, "It's very filling. If you eat two boiled eggs and drizzle them with olive oil, your stomach won't feel hungry all day long."

She added, "You should try it once. Olive oil is important. It seems crucial to include some fat. If you eat that way in the morning, your stomach won't feel hungry all day long."

IU's diet has recently emerged as a "natural Wegovy" recipe. The method involves eating two to three boiled eggs accompanied by one tablespoon of olive oil or perilla oil, sprinkled with black pepper. She also adds fiber-rich foods such as avocado, nuts, and blueberries.

IU is known for her slender figure in the entertainment industry. Actor Son Jun-ho, who filmed a drama with IU, said last May, "IU kept chewing on gimbap for over 30 minutes. She looked very thin and small in person, so I thought, 'She must be eating more than I expected.' When she stood up to leave, she said, 'Thank you for your hard work,' and left, but the gimbap was still there. It took her 30 minutes to chew just one piece of gimbap. She kept chewing it."

IU also revealed on the YouTube channel "Yoo In-na Radio," hosted by her close friend actress Yoo In-na, that she ate an apple and blueberries that day. When Yoo In-na asked, "What kind of birdseed did you eat? What did you peck at? Is it okay to keep pecking like that?" IU jokingly replied, "That's why my stomach might make some noises."

IU has previously stated that her weight is 44 kg.
