Actress Ko So-young revealed the secret to maintaining her 48 kg weight.
A video titled "First reveal of Ko So-young's squid and seaweed soup recipe that made Jang Dong-gun fall completely in love (super simple, spicy hangover cure)" was uploaded to Ko So-young's YouTube channel on Tuesday.
In the video, Ko introduced the recipe for squid and seaweed soup that she had enjoyed since her dating days with Jang Dong-gun. Ko said, "It is my mom-style squid and seaweed soup. My mom is from Jinju, so she puts red pepper powder in the seaweed soup. My mom tends to prepare food cleanly and quickly."
She continued, "Some people stir-fry garlic, red pepper powder, and radish before boiling it, but I don't do that. I prefer to boil it clear and refreshing rather than as a stew," adding, "I season it with minced garlic and soy sauce-based broth seasoning, then add red pepper powder. If it is bland, I add more salt."
Finally, Ko completed the squid and seaweed soup by adding green onions, served it with rice and kimchi, and sat at the dining table. At this moment, a bowl of rice filled to the brim, as if only soy sauce had been added, caught the eye. When the production team asked, "Did you eat that much to reach 48 kg?"
Ko explained, "Actually, the amount is not that large; it is just tricking the brain into thinking I am eating a lot visually."
She also revealed a brunch recipe that Jang Dong-gun has recently been deeply into. She made burrata cheese salad, a sausage and salmon plate, and French toast, saying, "It is too expensive to buy it out or order delivery, but making it this way is simple."
When the production team asked Ko, who prepared chocolate fresh bread for dessert, "You like desserts, so how did you lose weight down to 48 kg?" Ko replied, "I eat like this during the day, but I really eat little in the evening. I also don't have any other snacks."
Previously, Ko revealed that she had slowly lost 3 to 4 kg starting from March this year and entered the 40th kg weight range for the first time in 16 years on the 16th. At the time, she emphasized, "Diet is most important. To achieve a goal, sacrifice must follow for the body."
Ko married actor Jang Dong-gun in 2010 and has one son and one daughter.
