Kim Bum reveals he lost over 20 pounds for 'Padam Padam'

On November 30th, the stars and staff members of upcoming drama, 'Padam Padam', gathered at the Seoul Palace Hotel's Grand Ballroom for a press conference. During the event, actor Kim Bum revealed, "I lost nearly 25 pounds for my role in the new series. I just thought that this character isn't one that should have any excess body fat. I started working out before we began filming since I had some extra time on my hands". "Gooksoo is a character that believes he is an angel. He sleeps shirtless because he's afraid he might sprout wings in the middle of the night. It's a good thing I started working out, there are a lot more revealing scenes than I expected. But the more I work out, the more addicting it becomes... I'm still hitting the gym these days," he continued with a laugh. Kim Bum concluded, "I hope this project and my character will both make a lasting impression on our viewers." 'Padam Padam' (starring Kim Bum, Jung Woo Sung, and Han Ji Min) will air its first episode on December 5th at 8:45PM KST. Source & Image : MyDaily via Nate
