Koo Seong-hwan Reveals Surprising Weight & Vitiligo Connection during Broadcast
Seoul, South Korea - Comedian Koo Seong-hwan shocked viewers on a recent broadcast by revealing his actual weight of 112kg and a surprising correlation between his vitiligo and body fat percentage. Teh revelation came during a discussion of physical fitness and health, prompting both amusement and concern from fellow cast members.
Koo’s confession followed a demonstration of his athletic prowess, where he sprinted up a hill in 2 minutes and 13 seconds, setting a personal record. Earlier in the day, he had stunned the cast by disclosing a body fat mass of only 4kg, leading fellow SHINee member Key to jokingly dub him “empty Gangjeong.” This sparked a conversation about his physique, ultimately leading to the weight reveal.
According to reports,Koo explained that his vitiligo,a condition causing loss of skin color,appears to “spread as much as the fat area.” This connection highlighted the importance of maintaining a healthy weight for managing the condition. He shared that he felt particularly motivated to perform well in front of actors Kim Byeong-cheol and Lee Sang-yoon, who had been supportive throughout his training, stating, “They took good care of me throughout practice. Since I’m the youngest, they are happy no matter what I do. They listen to everything, so I have to do well when I’m the youngest.That’s why I ran today.”
Koo further emphasized the restorative power of Daehakro, his favorite area in Seoul, saying, ”When I think about where I get energy, it’s Daehakro. It’s a place I’ve always dreamed of, so I think it gives me energy.” The broadcast also featured Kian84 offering counsel to friends Kim Chung-jae and Chem Man, and Code Kunst expressing aspirations to work in planning.
