54-Year-Old Actress Divulges Tricks To Maintaining 48kg Figure Despite Loving Desserts

A 54-year-old model-actress revealed her diet secret that got her down to 48kg at almost 170cm tall.

On October 27th, a YouTube channel uploaded a video titled “Go So Young Squid Radish Soup Recipe That Jang Dong Gun Fell For (Super Simple, Spicy Hangover Soup).” In the video, Go So Young shared the recipe for squid radish soup.

After finishing the squid radish soup, Go So Young said, “I only eat this much rice.” The production team asked, “Is this how you managed to get down to 48kg, by eating this amount?” Go So Young replied, “Actually, it’s not much, but I trick my brain visually to feel like I’m eating a lot. It’s like a heaping bowl of rice.”

Go So Young explained, “On weekends, my husband used to be strictly a Korean food fan. But these days, he suddenly wants brunch. So, on weekends, we make brunch. I used to order it, but brunch isn’t really that hard to make. Plus, it’s so expensive, and I can just make a bigger portion here.”

Go So Young also introduced the brunch menu she makes for Jang Dong Gun. She said, “(Jang Dong Gun) likes bread. The old-style kind. You saw him eating toast in Hawaii, right? That was the first time I tried it.”

She added that she often eats a menu item from a café in Cheongdam-dong, saying, “There’s a salad with burrata, tomatoes, and arugula. It’s expensive there. I always buy this.”

She emphasized, “Is there really a need to go to a brunch café? This is brunch today. Bread is the main star. When I was making the squid soup earlier, I said 80% of it is ingredients, right? Bread is the most important thing here.”

Go So Young said, “I’m also a dessert person.” The production team expressed surprise, saying, “But how did you manage to lose weight down to 48kg?” Go So Young answered, “I eat like this, and in the evening, I really eat lightly and don’t snack.”

Previously, Go So Young revealed that her desired weight is 47 to 48kg. To succeed in dieting, she completely eliminated drinking and dinner appointments.
