LE SSERAFIM‘s recent appearance on the popular Korean show “Omniscient Interfering View” turned heads when members Sakura and Chaewon revealed their incredibly small waist measurements, potentially claiming the title of the tiniest waists in K-Pop.
Known for their slim figures, fans often admire Sakura and Chaewon’s “ant waists,” but no one expected just how tiny they truly are. In the past, Sakura has been shy about sharing her measurements directly, even using creative comparisons like her weight being equal to 25 apples. However, this time, both she and Chaewon surprised everyone by revealing their latest measurements.
When asked about their waist sizes, both members confidently stated 17 inches! The hosts were speechless, falling back in disbelief. While Chaewon clarified that the measurement was taken before eating, it still puts them among the idols with the smallest waists in K-Pop.

For comparison, BLACKPINK’s Rosé, known for her slim figure, has a confirmed waist size of 24 inches. Former Apink member Son Naeun had a 22-inch waist back in 2017. Even idols like PRISTIN’s Yuha, who held the record for the smallest waist at 16.6 inches, is no longer active in the industry.
Unsurprisingly, the clip of Sakura and Chaewon’s 17-inch waists went viral, reaching over 40,000 views on TheQoo within an hour. Fans were equally shocked, with some Korean netizens even commenting that elementary school students have larger waists.
Standing at 5 feet 4 inches (163cm), it’s hard to imagine how they maintain such tiny waists. However, Chaewon offered a glimpse into her fitness routine in a recent interview, mentioning regular exercise.
While their small waists are impressive, it’s important to remember that health and body positivity are crucial. It’s great for idols to be open about their fitness routines and inspire fans to live healthy lifestyles, but focusing solely on achieving specific measurements can be unhealthy.
Whether or not Sakura and Chaewon have the absolute smallest waists in K-Pop, their revelation has sparked conversation and surprised fans. I think health and body positivity are key, and focusing on overall well-being is more important than achieving specific measurements.
