Akdong Musician dishes about their pre-debut diet routine

Akdong Musician (AKMU)

Although Akdong Musician is already one of the most well-known rookie artists in Korea, they still had a tough path to follow before they could realize their dream - including a hellish diet routine which they detailed in their new autobiography, Raise Your Voice High!


The two halves of AkMu have radically different tastes - while Chan Hyuk loves noodles, Soo Hyun is a meat lover, which made it especially hard for her to go on her diet.


The dieting life in YG Entertainment consists of both a diet and an exercise routine, AkMu writes. For lunch, Soo Hyun was only allowed to eat vegetarian bibimbap - if she wanted to eat anything else, she had to take a photo of it and get it approved by her dietitian!

There were other restrictions - chicken breasts could only be eaten in the evenings, and snack foods such as cookies and bread as well as high-sodium foods such as�ddukbokki�and�ramen�were banned outright.�


For more inside stories behind Akdong Musician's path to their debut, you can pick up their book,�on shelves via�various bookstores�in Korea - of course, international fans may have to wait for the translated version!
