Defconn, a popular singer and broadcaster, has unveiled his impressive transformation after successfully losing weight. On January 13, the entertainer shared several photos on Instagram with the caption, “MY NEW PROFILE.” He paired the images with a message expressing his determination for the year ahead, stating, “Starting this year with renewed focus to work even harder,” and, “Celebrating my weight loss with a fresh new style.” He further noted, “As a broadcaster and host, I’ll continue striving to bring even more joy and laughter to my audience!
The photos highlight Defconn’s significantly slimmer figure, showcasing a remarkable change. His weight loss comes after his former groupmate, Jung Hyung Don, also known for their duo Hyungdon and Daejune, lost 21 kilograms (46.2 pounds). Last June, Defconn revealed that he had shed an impressive 30 kilograms (66 pounds) following a “one-meal-a-day” diet.
Defconn’s weight loss strategy centers around the “one-meal-a-day” approach, which focuses on maintaining a fasting state to regulate insulin levels and burn fat more efficiently. Normally, the body uses glucose as its primary energy source, reserving fat for critical situations. However, during fasting, insulin levels drop, prompting the body to turn to fat for energy instead.
By sustaining a fasting state, blood sugar levels decrease, reducing insulin secretion, and speeding up fat burning. When combined with aerobic exercise, this method enhances weight loss, making it more effective and long-lasting.
Defconn’s dramatic transformation has captured the attention of Korean netizens, who were both impressed and shocked by his weight loss. Many praised him for prioritizing his health, while others expressed surprise at his 30-kilogram loss. The comments included:
“He looks healthier.” “Good.” “He doesn’t look like Defconn.” “Wow. 30 kg??” “He basically lost the weight of an elementary school kid.” “He looks more handsome.” “He looks great.” “He looks younger and more healthy.” “Good for him. I’m so glad he looks healthy.” “Wow, he lost so much weight.” “He lost so much weight. It’s so crazy.”
