How Actress Roh Jeong Eui Managed To Shed 15 Pounds In-Between K-Dramas

She was already so slim!

Actress Roh Jeong Eui has continued to rise in popularity. Her roles in 18 Again and Our Beloved Summer helped transition her from a child actress to a full-fledged star, with her lead roles in Hierarchy and Badland Hunters cementing her status. As time went by, fans realized that she had been losing weight in between those first two two works. It was later made known that she had lost a total of 15.4 lbs (7kg). Here’s how she did it.

A fan asked her how she lost those pounds when she seemingly had nothing to lose in the first place. The answer was simple!

80% is thanks to my trainer…@pilates_space… The remaining 20% is from controlling your diet.

She has been diligently attending pilates lessons to tone her body and shed pounds. From the boiled eggs she uploaded, it seems that she focuses her intake mostly on proteins. She also takes chicken breast smoothies! The actress even shared the recipe.

Nonono, I know that it is made using chicken breast, almonds and bananas.

She dedicated herself to the weight loss to successfully pull off the role of NJ, a famous idol singer. The transformation did not come at an easy price but it paid off as it put her on the map! She then continued that momentum to a role as Inkigayo‘s MC and a lead role in Hierarchy.
