I’ll go wash up and exercise and then have a meal at 11AM. Got prepared and came here. I had Saengtae-jjigae and marinated ribs? I have 1 meal a day these days” .
Cha Seung-won continued, “As we get older, our metabolism falls dramatically. You can’t avoid gaining weight. But Jae-suk seems younger than in the past!” , adding “I work out for an hour a day. I do circuit training. That exercise suits me well. And the movie I’m working on now needs the character to be slim. So I lost about 8kg” .
