Actress Shin Min Ah revealed she recently started managing her diet after realising her old pants no longer fit.
On October 30, a video titled “Pretty Nine-Tailed Fox Shin Min Ah, Walking Confidently Anywhere” was published on Lee Eun Ji’s YouTube channel.
When asked about the secret to maintaining her figure during the episode, Shin Min Ah jokingly boasted, “I’ve been managing my diet a bit lately. Honestly, because I was naturally blessed with good genetics, I was able to maintain my body without exercising or dieting before.”
However, she recently felt a change in her physical condition. Shin Min Ah confessed, “I felt like my body wasn’t in great condition-wise. When my old pants didn’t fit well anymore, I realized it was time to start taking care of myself.”
She also changed her eating habits. She used to eat rice and soup right after waking up, but now she tries to eat a small amount of fruit or vegetables first before having carbohydrates.
She also shared a funny anecdote stemming from her diet management. Shin Min Ah brought laughter by revealing, “About two weeks into the diet, I dreamed of eating pizza. I thought to myself, ‘I’m really trying hard.’ Then the next day, I dreamed of eating tteokbokki.”
Regarding exercise, she shared why she quit ballet. Shin Min Ah explained, “I thought ballet would suit me well, so I tried it, but when I looked in the mirror while jumping, I really couldn’t stand the sight. My jump was so different from the speed I had imagined. It felt so slow and heavy that I quit ballet after that.”
She added, “I have athletic ability, but because I build muscle bulk too easily, I try not to exercise heavily,” noting that she currently focuses mainly on diet management, light walking, and stretching.
