Broadcaster Pungja said on MBC's Radio Star that she had lost 33kg.

The July 15 episode was presented as a big-eater special and featured Kim Sung-ryung, U-Know Yunho, Heo Kyung-hwan and Pungja. Pungja said, 'When I got the casting call, I asked what kind of special it was, and they said it was a big-eater special. I had recently been on a diet, so I was so angry. How much more do I have to lose before they stop calling me for a big-eater special?'

When Kim Gu-ra asked how much weight she had lost, Pungja answered, 'I lost 33kg.' She added, 'Before, I was very big, but now I am just big. When I appeared on Radio Star 2 years ago, I wore 4XL, but today I came wearing XL.'

Pungja also said, 'If Shin Gi-ru loses weight, she becomes Pungja, and if she loses more from there, she becomes Kim Min-kyung.' When Kim Gu-ra said losing more than 30kg can reduce one's strength, Pungja replied, 'My strength is still the same. It is because I am not thin yet.'
