As a die-hard K-drama fan, many of us can’t help but admire the main lead actors when they show off their perfect muscles on the screen.
Those chiseled abs were achieved from consistent hard work as well as determination to gain the perfect body in order to stand out in a highly competitive industry where sometimes talent alone isn’t sufficient. Here are 7 Hallyu stars who have impressed us with their body transformation:
1. Lee Min Ho (이민호)
Lee Min Ho was notable for his roles as a high school student in TV series like “Run, Mackerel, Run”, “The Heirs” and the ever-popular “Boys Before Flowers”. He started to transition into more mature roles with his appearances in “City Hunter”, “Faith” as well as the movie “Gangnam Blues”. Audiences have been blessed with tons of shower scenes in most of his on-screen appearances.
His appearance in the fantasy series called “The King: Eternal Monarch” with “Goblin” actress Kim Go Eun only cemented his status among K-drama viewers. Feel free to drool over his shirtless scenes here:
2. Park Seo Joon (박서준)
The Seoul-born actor is known among K-drama followers for his handsome and serious expression complete with his tall and model-like physique. He gained recognition for his bulked up body after appearing in the 2017 movie “Midnight Runners” with fellow Hallyu heartthrob Kang Ha Neul.
Since then, his popularity has began to increase by appearing in hit drama series like “Fight For My Way” and “What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim”, where viewers got to witness his attractive built in both of the TV shows.
3. Lee Seung Gi (이승기)
If you’ve been following Lee Seung Gi since his earlier days, you will definitely recognise him in a string of hit K-dramas such as “My Girlfriend Is A Gumiho”, “The King 2 Hearts”, “Gu Family Book”, “You’re All Surrounded” and many others,
This year, the singer-turned-actor has managed to wow AIRENs (as fans are lovingly called) with his ripped body by going shirtless in his thriller series “Vagabond“.
4. Jung Hae In (정해인)
For those in the dark, this rising actor was notable for his appearance in AOA’s music video for their song “MOYA” back in 2013. 3 years later, he gained recognition in this particular scene in the hit drama “While You Were Sleeping”, where he showed off his dazzling abs. He also took his shirt off in “Pretty Noona Who Buys Me Food”.
5. CNBLUE’s Jung Yong Hwa (정용화)
Singer-actor Jung Yong Hwa made his first ever appearance in the drama “You’re Beautiful” back in 2009, before he made his music debut with multi-platinum rock band CNBLUE a year later.
The 30-year-old was discharged from mandatory military service on 3rd November 2019. In this case, the “Heartstrings” actor’s Instagram updates has showed us that he has been working out diligently in order to stay in shape.

6. Henry Lau (헨리)
Do y’all still remember this teaser image for his debut solo song “Trap”? Based on the photo above, the former Super Junior-M member definitely looked different as compared to before. In a good way, of course.
Despite leaving SM Entertainment, Henry is still in the scene making appearances in local variety shows including “Real Men”, “I Live Alone” and “Master Key”, among others.
7. Kim Woo Bin (김우빈)
Talented actor Kim Woo Bin made his way in the Korean entertainment scene as a runway model. The “Uncontrallably Fond” star is notable for his slender physique. However, after he ventured into acting, the star began to work out in order to fulfil more challenging roles.
Starting with his role as Choi Young Do in “The Heirs”, the 30-year-old heartthrob has managed to set K-fans’ hearts on fire with his stunning body and breathtaking looks.
