the difference between 뚱뚱하다 and 통통하다
Hi,
I am wondering how to tell these two words, since they both sound quite similar.
May I confirm the pronunciations that 뚱뚱 is "d-u-ng" while 통통 is "t-o-ng"??
the 2nd question is, as an adjective, is 뚱뚱하다 more negative to describing people than using 통통하다?
Thank you so much for the help.

통통하다 and 뚱뚱하다 both mean "chubby, plump"
통통하다 has positive nuance
뚱뚱하다 has negative nuance
In the order of fatness
