Today was a strange day. We received news of not one, but TWO artists who have recently experienced collapsed lungs.

Babymonster's Rami it was revealed today that Rami from YG's new group Babymonster had to get rushed to the hospital during practice for I believe their latest comeback due to a collapsed lung. She was diagnosed with pneumothorax and had to drop out of practice to receive surgery. I believe she has already recovered and is back promoting with the group.

Here is a clip someone shared of her talking about it:



Additionally, in the same day we also just received news that Aespa's winter has been rushed to the hospital and received surgery for the same condition. She was too diagnosed with Pneumothorax and is currently recovering.

Here is an official statement released from SM ent:
“WINTER recently underwent surgery for pneumothorax and is currently recovering,” stated the agency. “As [pneumothorax] is a condition prone to recurrence, [the surgery] was carried out as a preventive measure in accordance with her doctor’s opinion, and the decision was made after plenty of discussion.”As for how the surgery will affect her scheduled activities, SM Entertainment remarked, “Regarding her future schedule, we will consider WINTER’s recovery status our top priority moving forward.”

They have not announced that Winter will be on hiatus, but I think it's safe to assume she might not be active for awhile during her recovery. Aespa is currently working on their first full album which is set to release sometime this year.

Common causes of Pneumothorax include a chest injury/blunt force trama to the chest followed by lung disease, air blisters developing on the lungs and breaking or asthma. In some small cases it can just appear randonmly. The recovery time is usually 1-2 weeks.

Let's send both idols our wishes so that they can continue to recover to be healthy!

this translation gives me the impression she will go back to work as soon she "can"



Winter was only released to go to surgery after completing some schedules too
both things are just absolutely evil, I just no longer trust companies when they talk about their idol's health recovery after that Fifty Fifty member promoted "normally" for a year while almost developing cancer, these idols are constantly sick and the companies are professionals at hiding it

On top of the recovery period being sketchy, I’m also very skeptical about how they got sick in the first place.

Aespa has been around for a few years now and there’s never been any mention of her having asthma or any other sicknesses.

I looked it up and only 1 in every 100,000 women experience a collapsed lung at random. How the heck did they both “randomly” get a collapsed lung? This story sounds sketchy.

The only thing I can think of for Winter is that SM artists are famous for being smokers (though I’ve only known their male artists to smoke, not the female ones). If she was secretly part of the SM smoking group I guess that could have caused it?

1.- No only SM artists smoke. South Korea is a drinking and smoking country, it's common in adults so several artists outside of SM smoke too.
2.- In both cases, it was reported as spontaneous pneumothorax, and the cause of this type is unknown. If you see the comments from people who had it, it just happens, suddenly, without an explanation. I don't know about you but for me, more than sketchy it's scary.
3.- Remember that companies or artists don't have the obligation to release their medical history so we don't know about possible illnesses or diseases.

That being said, I hope both of them can heal completely and without rush, and I say this because SM's greediness doesn't know limits.
