In particular, a number of topless scenes drew attention, followed by praise for Lee Jae-wook's solid muscular body.
In response, Lee Jae-wook shot "There was a burden of exposure, but I hope it comes out well because of the power of the situation.""It was about 5% to 6% body fat. I remember enjoying it because I thought my personality was similar to Hong-rang's even though my personality almost got worse. Then "The day before, I didn't drink water and ate salt, so I worked on attaching fat to my muscles completely, but I wasn't feeling well to that extent. There was a burden on God himself, and there is something I am grateful for because of the lighting."
The 'body fat ratio 5%' mentioned by Lee Jae-wook is quite an extreme ratio. Men's essential body fat for survival is 2-5%. A body fat percentage of 15-20% is in the appropriate range, and if it is more than 25%, it is classified as overweight.
In general, it is known that in men, if the body fat ratio falls below 5%, essential fats necessary for life support may be insufficient. About 5% of the body shape is very clear enough to show the individual lines of the muscles, and it becomes a body shape at the level seen in body building competitions.
However, it is pointed out that such a condition is difficult to sustain and can negatively affect health. Body fat percentage can vary depending on an individual's age, level of activity, and health status, but excessively low body fat percentage can lead to health problems such as weakened immune systems, hormonal imbalances, and nutritional deficiencies. Therefore, it is important for each individual to maintain an appropriate body fat percentage that fits their health goals and lifestyle.
