Kim Jun-hyun, after receiving obesity treatment, only grilled pork belly for 6 hours

The 'icon of mukbang,' Kim Jun-hyun, confessed that after personally experiencing an obesity treatment, he underwent a change in appetite that was entirely different from his usual self. Laughter erupted on set at his confession that his appetite vanished even in front of his favorite pork belly.

On the MBN show 'Kim Joo-ha's Day and Night' broadcast on the 3rd, Kim Jun-hyun, Hwang Je-sung, and Kim Hae-joon, who are active in 'The Delicious Guys,' appeared. On this day, Kim Jun-hyun revealed his unique mukbang philosophy while explaining the difference between eating food in front of a camera and his usual meals.

What particularly drew attention was his experience of receiving an obesity treatment. Kim Jun-hyun said he received an obesity treatment once upon a doctor's recommendation, recalling the time, "I got it, and it didn't hurt. That was the day I was going to Gyeongju with my children."

However, something surprising happened afterward. After drinking a glass of milk in the morning, he was not hungry at all until the evening. Kim Jun-hyun stated that while he was grilling meat for his children, he had no desire to eat it himself. He explained that even the pork belly, which he would normally welcome more than anyone, was "not that great."

What was even more surprising came next. Kim Jun-hyun said he even tried his favorite combination—dipping pork belly in salt mixed with sesame oil and eating it with white rice—but he had no appetite. Explaining his usual eating habits, he said, "I could do that about 70 times," before saying, "I did this for 3 hours. For 6 hours, it was not great..." which drew laughter.

While sharing his experience with the obesity treatment, Kim Jun-hyun explained that the drug was not for dieting purposes for him, but something he experienced once following a doctor's recommendation. For someone famous for mukbang, the experience of his desire for food dropping sharply was a significant shock in itself.

When asked on this day if there are any foods he cannot eat, Kim Jun-hyun showed his extraordinary mukbang confidence by answering, "There aren't any yet. So I am looking for them." By simultaneously revealing the single experience where his appetite disappeared and his usual vigorous appetite, he displayed the witty talk expected of a 'representative mukbang star.'
