Korean Celebrity Caused Her K-Pop Idol Husband’s To Lose 27kg (59 lbs)

This has been going on for 6 years.

Former national speed skating champion and Korean TV personality Lee Sang Hwa has revealed the reason she keeps a close watch on her husband Kangnam’s weight. Kangnam is a member of the idol group MIB.

In a recent appearance on Shin Dong Yup’s YouTube channel, Lee explained that her attention to Kangnam’s eating habits is linked to maintaing his handsome looks.

“He’s naturally very handsome. If he gains weight, that original look disappears. I think it’s such a waste. If I looked like him, I’d take care of myself a lot.”

Kangnam, who previously debuted in Japan as a band member and later as a hip-hop idol in Korea, recalled that his appearance never brought him financial success until variety shows changed his career. He admitted that if not for his wife, he would eat freely.

“I learned from senior entertainers that looks don’t really matter. I just love eating. If it weren’t for Sang Hwa today, I would have eaten everything here.”

Her efforts have paid off — since their marriage, Kangnam has dropped from 99 kg to 72 kg, a loss of 27kg (59 lbs) proving that her strict yet caring approach has kept him in top form.
