Actor Lee Jang-woo, who is about to marry in the "Countryside Village," confessed that he couldn't lose weight and therefore couldn't shoot his wedding photos.

On the afternoon of the 7th, the MBC entertainment program "Countryside Village Lee Jang-woo 2" aired scenes of Lee Jang-woo visiting Ganghwa Island and trying his hand at growing turnips.

After working in the fields with villagers to cultivate turnips, Lee Jang-woo returned to his lodging exhausted. Lee Jang-woo rested and called his mother, and his mother congratulated him on his birthday, saying, Son! It's your birthday today. Congratulations. I couldn't even cook seaweed soup. What you cook and what I cook are different, and she wished her son a happy birthday.

Lee Jang-woo laughed at his mother's congratulations, saying, I'm better at cooking it, though, and his mother worried about him, asking, Is there hot water coming out too? Don't skip dinner and eat well.

Lee Jang-woo added, I don't skip meals, and said, But people don't believe that. I was in an incubator, which drew attention. Lee Jang-woo's mother explained, He was in an incubator. He was born very small, and Lee Jang-woo wondered, But why did I get so fat?

His mother urged, You need to lose weight healthily now. At your age, if you just lose weight, you'll lose muscle and it will look very unattractive, and Lee Jang-woo said, I do squats every morning and stuff, while hastily ending the phone call.

To celebrate Lee Jang-woo's birthday, a man contacted him through the production team as part of the season 1 Gimje segment. Lee Jang-woo said, I can tell just by the voice, and answered the call warmly, and the man asked, It seems like it's your birthday today, congratulations. Gimje is very busy right now. It's a very busy time because of farm work. Didn't you say you were getting married in June?

Lee Jang-woo revealed, It's November. I couldn't take photos because I couldn't lose weight, attracting attention. Lee Jang-woo will marry actress Jo Hye-won on Nov. 23.
