He revealed his secret to losing weight, saying, “I quit drinking, I cut off good interpersonal relationships, and I become toxic.”
He has maintained a chubby body, but through strict self-management, he succeeded in dieting and became sharper. Before I knew it, I had transformed into a manly guard warrior. It was also full of melodrama.
Besides Cho Jin-woong, among female actors, Go Hyun-jung is famous as a star with a clear reputation before and after making a deposit. As soon as I get into a project, I go on a diet and break my reputation. He is an actor famous for losing 10kg between the season and the off-season.

When asked about his diet method in the past, he said, "I didn't get help from a professional or go to a separate center," and "I exercised alone a lot at the gym at home. I especially walked a lot with my manager, including Han River. I walk for two and a half hours every day. “I started walking, and unexpectedly I lost weight and my health improved. I also combined diet and it seems to be working well,” he said.
Meanwhile, there is an actor who has overcome the DNA of being a glutton. Actor Han Sang-jin, who lost 47 kg. He appeared on a TV show in the past and said, "I really have a constitution that makes me gain weight even if I eat just a little bit," and my wife is worried about gaining weight after retiring as an athlete, so she manages it more rigorously than I do. I don’t usually cook at home. “The cost of city gas does not exceed 2,000 won,” he said.
Meanwhile, Han Sang-jin said, "I pay attention to my diet because of my role. I think I will diet until I retire. I held back because of the diet, but I want to try soup dishes for the first time in 10 years. My favorite dishes are red pepper paste stew and sundae soup." added. In fact, Han Sang-jin even gave up his favorite sundae soup to lose weight.
Stars who transformed from ‘bulky’ to ‘thin’ for their roles. The public applauds their professionalism under thorough management. A clear external transformation automatically brings topicality and popularity to the work. For the three people who are known as talented actors, dieting is like a bonus. People who overcome the wall in front of them every time are just awesome.
