Kim Ji-min gives up on diet during IVF treatment, saying 'I can't handle it'

Comedian Kim Ji-min, who is preparing for a second child through in vitro fertilization (IVF), has candidly confessed that she has ultimately given up on the diet she started with her husband, Kim Jun-ho.

On the 8th, Kim shared her realistic struggles via her SNS, posting, "Oppa, I'm sorry, but please do the diet by yourself. I just can't handle it."

She followed up by saying, "I ate brunch yesterday morning and had no energy all day, so I was crawling around," while sharing a photo of a hearty brunch. Although the photo showed a well-balanced meal, it appears she experienced a significant drop in physical strength while attempting to reduce her food intake.

Recently, Kim had begun managing her diet alongside Kim Jun-ho to help him lose weight. Previously, she had shared her daily life of preparing healthy meals for him, stating, "Eat breakfast like an emperor and dinner like a beggar."

However, managing a strict diet while undergoing IVF treatment proved difficult, leading her to declare a halt to the diet, which drew laughter from fans. In particular, as she is currently preparing for pregnancy through IVF, this decision can be interpreted as prioritizing her physical condition during a critical period for health management.

Kim Ji-min and Kim Jun-ho, who married in July last year, have received much support as they have consistently shared their plans for a second child. Recently, they drew interest and encouragement from fans by directly revealing that they are undergoing IVF treatment.

Kim Jun-ho has also expressed his earnest desire for a child through his broadcasts. In the recently aired E Channel and Channel S variety program 'Go to the End! Dokbak Tour,' he shared his sincere heart during a moment of making a wish, saying, "I hope our Ji-min is always healthy, and I pray that a beautiful baby implants with me."

The daily lives of the couple, who are balancing IVF treatment, health management, and dieting, are receiving support from many. Kim's honest confession is gaining empathy, with many reacting that it is a realistic choice that puts health first.
