In the first episode of SBSŌĆÖs My Fantasy House, ApinkŌĆÖs Bomi chose a red clay (loess) house as her ŌĆ£dream house,ŌĆØ drawing curiosity over her old taste. Bomi explained, ŌĆ£When I was promoting ŌĆśOnly one,ŌĆÖ I lost 8 to 9 kg (about 17 to 20 lbs) at once, and that resulted in severe atopy (atopic syndrome) due to a weakened immune system.ŌĆØ Hearing this, Chorong added, ŌĆ£Bomi was really under stress (at the time) because she could only wear turtleneck shirts. She would be scratching herself without knowing, so I would tell her to stop.ŌĆØ ŌĆ£ThatŌĆÖs when I started to obsess about health and materials. It felt like ants were crawling all over my body,ŌĆØ Bomin continued. ŌĆ£I even had to tie my hands with stockings so I couldnŌĆÖt scratch myself at night. But when I woke up, the stockings were on the floor and with blood on it.ŌĆØ She then shared, ŌĆ£I took meds and got vitamin shots. I even applied steroid ointment on my skin and suffered from side effects. But it seemed like natural healing was the best choice. ThatŌĆÖs when I started looking into red clay. Before, I even wore red clay lingeries.ŌĆØ
