Actor Lee Sung-min says health improved after shedding 10 kg for role

Actor Lee Sung-min said his health improved after losing 10 kilograms for a role.

A video titled "A Story About Running Into a Blasting Zone on the Way to Iksan" was released Saturday on the YouTube channel Ddeunddeun's "Punghyangjung."

In the video, Yoo Jae-seok traveled with Lee, broadcaster Ji Seok-jin and Yang Se-chan on a road trip to Iksan using only national highways and no navigation.

After arriving in Iksan, the group checked into their accommodation and wrapped up the day over dinner.

Health and weight management came up at the dinner table. When Ji asked, "Now that the film is done, are you going to put a little weight back on?" Lee — who had shed 10 kg for his role — said, "I probably will now. After losing the weight, I got a blood test and everything came back normal. Feeling good."

Ji then joked, "I need to lose 5 kg myself — Jae-seok, take mine," drawing laughs when Yoo replied, "Yes, please."
