How did Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin stay healthy and fit?

 

Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin talks about personal health and beauty secrets


These two have always been private about their personal lives. Son Ye Jin usually talks about work and gratitude towards her fans on Instagram, while Hyun Bin, crowned as a man of few words, doesn’t have socials at all. 

Luckily, in Swoon’s couch talk, a couple of questions were thrown to the couple, including their secrets in looking perfect on-screen despite their crazy schedules. 

Son Ye Jin opens up, “Once we begin working on a project, things become very physically taxing.” So, when she’s not working, she…

  1. Work out regularly
  2. Eat a lot of good food

While Hyun Bin replied, “That’s similar to what I do. I work out whenever I have the time, and I try to sleep a lot as well.”

There’s an undeniable connection between the two that even their answers coincide. Oh well, maybe that’s what they call L.O.V.E!

I know these short answers aren’t enough to quench your curiosity, so we seek deeper and detailed tips for you! 

Son Ye Jin’s health and beauty secrets

Two decades ago, Son Ye Jin had her first commercial. To be more precise, the photo below is a screenshot of her first advertisement. Wait… is Ye Jin still human? How come she looks exactly the same?

Son Ye Jin surely found a way to reverse the aging process, glowing as ever!

What’s more insane? In a few days, Ye Jin will be turning 40  (Korean age)!

Okay, that’s it, girls! C’mon, get up now, and let’s get to work!

Son Ye Jin’s fitness workout

In an anniversary special episode of Master in the House, Son Ye Jin showed another side of her that surprises many, including Lee Seung-gi, Yook Sung-jae, Lee Sang-yoon, and Yang Se-hyung.

She may look fragile and sweet on the outside, but damn, this girl is on fire in her workout suit! Her daily workout? Pilates and TRX!

For the first time on television, the actress shared her go-to gym and her kind of workout for more than 10 years now. Let’s just say her love for Pilates and TRX is as much as her statement, “I come here more often than my house!”


Pilates is designed to improve posture, flexibility, balance, and body coordination. It also builds strength and endurance with its repetitive movements and tone the whole body. 

While Pilates is suitable for everyone, some studies show it specifically benefits people with lower back pains.

TRX (Total Resistance Exercises), on the other hand, is intense training to burn body fat. These two combinations are the core of Son Ye Jin’s lean physique. 

On top of that, Ye Jin got herself a license to teach these exercises if she wants to. Oh, please, sign me up!

While everyone else is obsessed with the Korean 10-step skincare norm, Son Ye Jin, on the other hand, prefers a simpler routine. 

Cleansing Queen

With her skin type, Ye Jin is a sucker for cleansers. Usually, mornings with a splash of water is enough, but with oily skin like Ye Jin, she realized she needs more than that. 

She admitted in an interview, “In the past, I heard it’s not good to cleanse your face in the morning, so I usually just wash my face with water. But over time, I learned that I have oily skin, so now I cleanse my face every morning and night no matter how busy I am.” 

A mask is a must

Son Ye Jin is as successful as Yoon Se-ri (the character portrayed in Crash Landing on You) in real life. Still, a busy bee like Ye Jin makes time for facial masks daily. She let it sit for about 10 minutes, followed by a serum.

As for serum, she uses a customized serum for her skin from Skin Inc’s (she’s the brand ambassador). It promotes personalized serum best suited for your skin and needs. 

For oily skin like Son Ye Jin, her personalized serum contains hyaluronic acid, vitamin B3, and liquorice serum.

Cucumber eye mask

Lastly, Ye Jin is a faithful follower of her mom’s beauty recipe. The actress believed in cucumber eye masks to treat dark circles and baggy eyes.

This works perfectly in the past two decades of her career in the entertainment industry; times when there are fewer beauty products in the market. 

Hyun Bin’s skincare & fitness routine

Did you know that Son Ye Jin’s first impression of Hyun Bin was about his skin? 

In an interview on the first movie project, The Negotiation (2018), she confessed her amusement to Hyun Bin’s beautiful skin. A skin that every woman is envious of. 

In a separate interview just a few months back, quick-witted Hyun Bin realized in a snap that the interview question was related to Son Ye Jins’ comment about his skin.

His answer? “I think I’m not trying that hard. I don’t really do something on the face.”

G A M E O V E R! There’s nothing much we can do about Hyun Bin Oppa’s good genes, eh. No wonder the actor was chosen as the new face of Mediheal.

But when it comes to physique, this ain’t pure luck. We’ve seen Hyun Bin grow from the boy in My lovely Sam Soon to captain Ri Jeong-hyeok in Crash landing on you.

Trainer Yoon Tae Sik revealed in Allure Korea the secret of Hyun Bin’s ABSolutely amazing body transformation. Coach Yoon is also known as Goblin stars’ personal trainer and one of the Original Oppa’s – Gong Yoo. 

To start, he complimented Hyun Bin for having a body like an athlete. He has good proportions – a small face, broad shoulder, and long legs. But it takes hard work and discipline to achieve the body he has today. 

Hyun Bin does Aerobic exercises twice a day, 5-6 times a week! He exercises as soon as he wakes up with an empty stomach. He also does weight training with coach Yoon.

Hyun Bin’s diet

When there’s an upcoming project, Hyun Bin exerts effort to shape up to get the image of the character he is portraying. 

For example, while preparing for his movie Confidential Assignment (2017), Coach Yoon said Bin went under an extreme diet like an athlete. He ate chicken breast, sweet potato, and vegetables. 

But like us, Hyun Bin loves to eat. So on days when he’s not filming, he savors our all-time favorite pizza or hamburger but… in moderation.

To wrap it up, it takes hard work, discipline, a little bit of good genes (just kidding*), and the right beauty recipes to stay youthful in your 40’s!
