On You Quiz on the Block, Yoo Ji-tae confessed that he endured extreme weight gain and subsequent health problems to perfectly portray the character in the work, drawing attention.
On the afternoon of the 25th, Yoo Ji-tae, who became a 10-million-audience actor 28 years after his debut with the movie The King's Warden, appeared on tvN You Quiz on the Block.
Yoo Ji-tae explained the reason for his shocking transformation regarding the nearly 100kg figure in the film, saying, "Because there is only one villain, Han Myeong-hoe, I judged that it would be good if the villainic image was felt visually." He also candidly conveyed his feelings about his overwhelmingly changed physique, saying, "I was a bit surprised too."
However, the rapid gain achieved in a short period placed a great burden on his body. Yoo Ji-tae said of the hardships at the time, "My body suffered a lot. I ate a lot first. I combined exercise and diet. Still, my body was strained."
In fact, Yoo Ji-tae said about the various diseases that followed the weight gain, "high cholesterol, acute gastritis, colitis. Only things bad for the body," suggesting the fierce acting passion that spared no health for the character.
