“Marry My Husband” Park Min-young revealed that she attempted an extreme diet
On Jan 1st, the press conference of tvN’s new Monday-Tuesday drama “Marry My Husband” was held online. Director Park Won-guk and actors Park Min-young, Na In-woo, Lee Yi-kyung, Song Ha-yoon, Lee Gi-kwang attended the event.
In order to portray a character who is a cancer patient, Park Min-young lost weight, bringing her weight down to 37kg. She shared, “I don’t recommend it to anyone, but I endured it with sports drinks when I had to shoot. Fortunately, the production team took a lot of care, and we filmed those scenes first. Then, they gave me about 2 weeks to gain weight. I tried hard to gain weight and came back.”
She emphasized, “Actually, gaining weight was more challenging for me. My stomach got smaller, so it was difficult. Still, I did it with a happy heart. As I’m getting older, I wondered when I would be able to pour passion into a character like this. I gave it my all in the end. I tried my best. But I absolutely do not recommend this method.”
“Marry My Husband” centers around a woman who was murdered after witnessing her husband’s affair with her best friend. She returns to ten years ago and begins her second life. The drama will premiere at 8:50 PM on Jan 1st.
