“And what’s with the people editing the photos? Would you like it if someone edited your face because it’s not pretty enough? I mean, damn it, isn’t Seo Changbin all about thick look?” - “It’s not that he didn’t work out; he worked out a lot, lol. The guy who basically lives on poke bowls, lol.

Changbin has worked hard to achieve his goals and
