At the press conference for Hyomin's first solo mini-album, 'Nice Body', in Samsung-dong, Seoul on June 30, the T-ara member told reporters that she had felt burdened by the title track and worked hard to get her body in shape for promotions.


"When I first heard the title track 'Nice Body,' I felt really pressured," she admitted. "Firstly, there are a lot of people with nice figures, and there was an emphasis on how I should portray this song. I did worry about the song and choreography, but I can't leave out exercise and diet. I looked for a different method this time and wanted to try something I haven't done before."

She went into more detail: "I did crossfit exercises and diet side-by-side; the exercise is really hot nowadays. For one week, my muscles were sore to the point I lied in bed. They said I had to eat well, so I did and my body started getting bigger because of the muscles.  I thought that might not match well with what I needed to express, so I also dieted at the same time."


Hyomin also revealed to everybody's surprise that she even did the lemon detox diet side-by-side and was reported to have lost 4 kg (~9 lbs.) from her 7-day lemon detox diet followed by a 5-day diet of a variety of healthy food.


Are you impressed with her 'Nice Body'?
