Appearing on Knowing Bros, the idol candidly shared that he struggled with his weight growing up, admitting he had reached around 220 pounds (100 kilograms) at one point before shedding the weight during his teenage years.

When I was younger, I gained a lot of weight. I was quite chubby. I went up to 100 kilos at one point, but I lost it rapidly during my growth period, and that’s when my height stopped growing.

But it wasn’t just discipline and routine that caught attention—it was his unique strategy.

“I did what I call a ‘perfume diet,’” Sung Hanbin revealed, surprising both the cast and viewers alike. According to him, applying perfume helped suppress his appetite, making it easier to control his eating habits!

Now standing at 5’11” and maintaining a lean 141-pound physique, Sung Hanbin has fully transformed into the polished performer fans know today.
