YouTuber Pungja has been candidly sharing her thoughts on dieting and her relationship status, continuing her witty commentary after gaining public recognition through various grants.
Pungja posted a video titled 'Pungja's Dating Update' on her personal YouTube channel 'Pungja TV' on the 7th. In the released video, she revealed the process of making handmade burgers with her own recipe while discussing her current situation with the production team.
In the meantime, the production team asked Pungja, "Are you dating these days? Everyone is asking if you're looking prettier because you're in a relationship." Pungja responded, "No. I'm not dating," which drew laughter.
Pungja continued, "How could that be? I'm just making burgers at home, drinking and all. What kind of relationship is that? I'm busy; I need to make money. If suddenly a dating rumor comes out, people would feel betrayed," which caused everyone to burst into laughter. She even added, "I received a DM saying, 'I know you're dating, and I saw you with a guy.' It's all either managers or my little brother," which made everyone laugh even more.
Pungja's honest remarks were recently highlighted when she revealed her weight loss story. After revealing that she lost 14 kg, she stated, "There are some comments saying, 'Pungja is using Saxenda,' 'she is taking Wegovy.' I have actually tried both Saxenda and Wegovy," drawing attention. However, she insisted, "This is really personal experience. I don't know about yours. I always mention the downsides and side effects. I just hope you take it as a reference. I don't want to promote these products." She emphasized the side effects of diet supplements, such as nausea and vomiting.
As the number of entertainers who used to be YouTubers and are appearing on various shows is rapidly increasing, Pungja is also one of them. She is gaining public recognition by appearing on MBC variety shows such as 'Omniscient Interfering View' and 'Save Me! Homes.'
Typically, there are participants who lose their distinctive traits as former YouTubers to align with general popularity in the broadcasting grants. However, Pungja seems to maintain her unique, frank commentary through her personal YouTube content. Her distinctive style has even led to her winning the MBC Entertainment Awards for Best New Female Artist as the first transgender entertainer. Pungja's ongoing activities are drawing attention.
