‘1947 Boston’ Im Si-wan “I lost 6% body fat through diet and exercise… for the first time in my life”

[SPOTV News = Reporter Kang Hyo-jin] Actor Im Si-wan revealed the story of how he struggled to maintain his body in order to play the role of a marathoner.

The press preview of the movie ‘1947 Boston’ (directed by Kang Je-gyu) was held at the entrance of Lotte Cinema Konkuk University in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul at 2 pm on the 11th. Director Kang Je-gyu and actors Ha Jung-woo, Im Si-wan, and Kim Sang-ho attended the scene that day.

On this day, Im Si-wan said about his body care, “I spent a lot of time on diet and exercise. I lived on chicken breast and salad from the beginning of filming until the end. I also exercised every day and I didn’t want my muscles to look firm, so I exercised even between cuts to expand my muscles. “I tried to keep my senses,” he said.

He continued, “I was trying to look like him, and when I checked my weight on InBody, I found out that I had 6% body fat. I didn’t aim for 6%, but as I was trying to look like him, I remember being amazed when I saw the number 6% for the first time in my life.”

‘1947 Boston’ is a work that contains the challenges and thrilling journey of marathoners to participate in international competitions wearing the Taegeuk symbol for the first time after liberation in 1947. It will be released on the 27th.
