Overview
Findings #19-28 - In this last page of our 1,903-idol compilation report, we dwell into our idols' BMIs, blood types and countries of origin. You may also wish to re-visit the previous page, covering Findings #9-18 (Birthdays and Weights).
Part 5: Let's dwell a little into the health of our K-Pop idols. A little worrying..
We will use W.H.O. (World Health Organization) 's body mass index (BMI) classification as a yardstick. BMI is calculated as weight / height2 (kg/m2).
19
Most (91.2%) of the female K-Pop idols are underweight, of which 9.2% are considered severely underweight!
There are literally no overweight female K-Pop idols. Only 8.8% are considered to be in the normal BMI category (based on a BMI value of 18.5 to 25 kg/m2). A staggering (!) 91.2% of our female K-Pop idols are underweight (BMI value less than 18.5), of which 8% are severely underweight (BMI of 15 to 16) and 1.2% are very severely underweight (BMI of 15 or less).
20
On the other hand, the better news is that 75% of male K-Pop idols are considered to be in the normal BMI category.
However still, 25% of male K-Pop idols are considered underweight (BMI value less than 18.5) and only 2 K-pop idols are considered slightly overweight (BMI of 25 to 30). Thus, the remaining 75% are considered to be in the normal BMI category.
21
The average BMI value of a male K-Pop idol is 19.4 (normal category).
The BMI values of male K-Pop idols range from 15.26 (severely underweight) to 28.41 (slightly overweight).
22
The average BMI value of a female K-Pop idol is 17.16 (underweight category).
The BMI values of female K-Pop idols range from 14.19 (VERY severely underweight) to 21.34 (normal).
