Super Junior's Shindong talked about his health and weighing over 200 pounds.
On the July 1st episode of 'Knowing Brothers', the cast members took their first overseas trip together to Danang, Vietnam. The brothers were divided into 2 teams to climb Vietnam's 5 mountains, and 1 team got to use an elevator and another had to use the stairs.
Though everyone wanted to be on the elevator team, Shindong volunteered to join the stair team. He expressed, "The internal medicine doctor told me to walk. I'm going to exercise." The other team members commented, "He needs to walk. He's over 100kg (220lbs). He has to exercise a little."
Shindong succeeded in losing 36kg (79lbs) from 116kg (255lbs) in 2020, but as he's regained the weight, he shared that he would be changing his approach. The Super Junior member said, "I won't diet anymore. In the past, dieting was the goal, but now I'm eating a lot and exercising a lot."
Stay tuned for updates on Super Junior and Shindong.

Strict diets never work, you will always gain back what you lost- I’ve yo-yo’d all my life because of fad diets so I can really emphasize with him. He’s on the slow but right path now. I’m sure the other members mean well but Koreans are way to harsh on themselves and others about being skinny.
