Ahn Jae-hyun, Weight Loss After 17kg Gain—Local Elder "Should I give you food?" Triggers Protective Instincts

Actor Ahn Jae-hyun, who had previously bulked up his weight to 17kg [gain], has returned to a very thin appearance not long after. Having once boldly increased his weight to build a muscular body, he has drawn attention once again by revealing his current status, where he has lost so much weight that he had to reduce his clothing size by as much as 3 inches.

On the 5th, a video titled 'I don't know the hot places in Seongsu, I'm just going to my regular spot' was released on Ahn Jae-hyun's YouTube channel. On this day, while walking through the neighborhood to stop by a dry cleaner, Ahn Jae-hyun met a familiar elderly person and exchanged warm greetings.

However, the conversation between the two, as they asked about each other's well-being, took an unexpected turn. Upon hearing that the elder had lost 14kg, Ahn Jae-hyun expressed sincere concern, saying, "Why did you lose so much? It's hard. You must eat well." But this time, the elder instead looked closely at Ahn Jae-hyun and offered a word mixed with worry, saying, "Why have you lost so much? You don't look good since you lost weight."

Eventually, the elder even looked after Ahn Jae-hyun, saying, "Is it because you have nothing to eat? If you have nothing to eat, I'll give you some." Although Ahn Jae-hyun is usually loved for his sharp image, on this day, his excessively thin appearance triggered even the protective instincts of a local elder.

In fact, Ahn Jae-hyun revealed that his change in body type is evident in his clothing sizes. He explained to the production crew, "I lost so much weight that I had to reduce all my clothes by about 3 inches." When the production crew was surprised to see him picking up a large pile of clothes after arriving at the dry cleaner, Ahn Jae-hyun calmly explained, "I have many trousers that were altered."

Ahn Jae-hyun's change is even more eye-catching because he had built the exact opposite body just a short while ago. He previously revealed that he underwent a bulk-up, increasing his weight from about 60kg to 77kg, because he needed a muscular body after being cast in a drama that included a bed scene. He had gained as much as 17kg for the work.

However, once the goal for filming was over, his body returned to its original direction. As his weight, which had risen to 77kg, dropped sharply, he has now reached a situation where he has to wear smaller clothes. It is a dramatic change from 'Bulk-up Ahn Jae-hyun' back to 'Skinny Ahn Jae-hyun' in a short period.

Above all, what caught the eye in this recent update was the reaction of those around him worrying about Ahn Jae-hyun, rather than just the simple weight change. While he himself is spending his daily life calmly, an elderly person in the neighborhood he met after a long time was the first to worry, asking, "Why have you lost so much?" Ahn Jae-hyun's extreme physical transformation—building a large body for a single work and then reversing it—is gathering the interest of fans.
