Fans of actress Park Min Young have been speculating over whether or not she gained weight after the South Korean star sported a so-called "chubby look" in her upcoming film, The Confidence Man KR.

As soon as the actress was spotted on November 4, alongside co-stars Joo Jong Hyuk and Park Hee Soon, her appearance instantly sparked reactions online.

Park will be appearing back on screen in 2025 with this new project following his success in the hit series "Marry My Husband," a remake of the Japanese film "The Confidence Man JP."

This film follows a team of conmen who corrupt people by giving in to their greed.

The reaction of some fans came as a shock since Park looked much curvier than in her previous appearances — although that could have been down to the clothes she wore.

During filming the actress wore a baggy T-shirt and turned her back to them, wrapping legs in a thick scarf - like she would look even fatter.

By contrast, images posed in her official gear—a form-fitting outfit that featured a tennis skirt—show her looking considerably slimmer.

Park Min Young's current figure received mixed reviews, as viewers remember the actress being criticized for losing a dangerous amount of weight earlier this year, and she has gained some pounds since then.

Fans had seen the noticeable difference between now and back in the years when many people even appreciated her energetic, youthful fashion.

The film is directed by Nam Ki Hoon and written by Hong Seung Hyun. Meanwhile, the male leads next to Park have not yet been revealed.

Many netizens were able to relate to Park's journey and her change in body image. Newer comments have noted that the look was a much healthier, newer look for her.

Fans only hope to see her in "The Confidence Man KR," as talks go on.
