Super Junior's Shindong revealed that his weight loss journey was largely inspired by his desire to become healthy. 

He appeared on the February 12th broadcast of MBC's 'Radio Star' as a special guest MC where he mentioned that doctors told him he would have to lose weight if he wanted to stay alive. He stated: "All my test results came back... The doctor said that if I didn't lose weight now I could die when I turned 40." 

Since then, Shindong has lost a whopping 31 kilograms (68 pounds) and says he still has more to go!
