  • Comedian Kim Ji-min is experiencing 'eating cravings' during her pregnancy, leading to frequent binge eating.
  • She shared a video on her personal channel showing her eating habits.
  • Her partner, Kim Jun-ho, is reportedly losing weight while she is gaining.

South Korean comedian Kim Ji-min is navigating the challenges of pregnancy, specifically dealing with intense 'eating cravings' that have resulted in frequent binge eating. She recently shared a glimpse into her current situation via her personal social media channel.

In a post accompanied by a video, Kim Ji-min described her condition as 'eating cravings' (meok-deot), a pregnancy symptom that compels her to eat large amounts every three hours. She humorously noted that her partner, comedian Kim Jun-ho, appears to be losing weight in contrast to her own weight gain, playfully referring to him as 'Mounjaro' (a diabetes drug also used for weight loss) and herself as a 'pregnant lady' who is 'getting rounder.'

The video captures Kim Ji-min indulging in her cravings, highlighting the stark difference between her eating habits and her partner's. The situation presents a relatable, albeit humorous, portrayal of the physical changes and dietary challenges some women experience during pregnancy.

I'm binge eating legally every three hours with the excuse of eating cravings! Mounjaro is getting thinner next to me. Pregnant lady is getting rounder!
