Seo Jang-hoon reveals unique ideal type as "woman with wide shoulders" during bodybuilding couple's story

Broadcaster Seo Jang-hoon revealed his unique ideal type while watching the story of a bodybuilding couple. As panelists expressed concern for a woman preparing for a competition through extreme dietary control, Seo Jang-hoon drew laughter by unexpectedly stating that his ideal type is a woman with wide shoulders.

In the 18th episode of the JTBC entertainment program "Love War" broadcast on the 26th, a bodybuilding couple who fell in love through exercise and have been together for one year and eight months appeared as the subjects. While the two grew close through their shared interest in exercise, differences in their diet and lifestyle became prominent during the process of preparing for a competition.

The girlfriend's harsh diet management particularly drew attention. As she maintained an ultra-low-calorie diet ahead of her competition, she was shown searching for foods she wanted to eat or frequently visiting convenience stores to check for new snacks. Unlike her boyfriend, whose gaze changes every time they exercise, the girlfriend appeared to be struggling with the situation of having to give up the joy of eating.

Watching this, the panelists appeared to discourage the competition preparation. Lee Hyo-ri expressed sympathy, saying, "Just eat," and adding, "We live to be happy, so what is that?" The reaction suggested that while achieving body goals is important, one should consider whether it is necessary to sacrifice daily joys and happiness in the process.

Seo Jang-hoon also questioned the competition itself. He asked, "Can't you just eat and exercise? Why do you absolutely have to enter a competition?" His point was that it might be better to maintain a healthy body while enjoying exercise rather than enduring extreme dieting to stand on a specific stage.

Jung Eun-ji added a positive assessment of the girlfriend's physique, stating, "Her body shape is already pretty." She meant that the girlfriend's current physique is sufficiently attractive even without conforming to stricter standards for the competition.

At that moment, Seo Jang-hoon changed the mood. Following Jung Eun-ji's comment, he asked, "How wide are her shoulders?" before emphasizing, "My ideal type is a woman with wide shoulders." He candidly revealed his preference amidst the conversation regarding the female bodybuilder's physique. The unexpected confession spread laughter throughout the studio.

Seo Jang-hoon married former announcer and broadcaster Oh Jung-yeon in 2009 but divorced in 2012. Since then, he has continued his broadcasting activities by sharing stories about dating and marital relationships on various entertainment programs such as "Love War" and "Divorce Camp." This time, while adding his opinion to serious dating concerns, he drew viewers' interest by revealing a specific ideal type: a "woman with wide shoulders."
