Jang Dong-gun Talks About Maintaining Current Look, “It’s Impossible To Get Back My Old Appearance”
Actor Jang Dong-gun revealed his thoughts on reading books and a healthy lifestyle
On November 5th, the Japanese magazine USST released Jang Dong-gun’s pictorials and an interview with the actor. Jang Dong-gun recently appeared in tvN’s Sat-Sun drama “Arthdal Chronicles: The Sword of Aramun”, which ended on October 22nd, and is waiting for the release of his new movie “A Normal Family” (director Heo Jin-ho).
During the interview, Jang Dong-gun said, “I’m happy to be named among ‘Hallyu Four Heavenly Kings’ in Japan. In Korea, there are about 6-7 candidates for Heavenly Kings, but there seems to be only four in Japan”.
Jang Dong-gun will meet the audience with Season 3 of “Back to the Books” on November 12th. This is a documentary in which Jang Dong-gun becomes a presenter and visits prestigious bookstores in Europe. Season 3 will be released on the Japanese broadcasting channel NHK.
Revealing that he visited a bookstore in Tokyo, Japan, Jang Dong-gun said, “I really like books and I’ve received many inspirations from reading books. Season 2 of ‘Back to the Books’ might have allowed viewers who couldn’t travel abroad due to the Covid-19 pandemic to experience it. In this digital age, I felt the significance of going to a bookstore again. Digital materials are convenient, but we should not forget the joy of analog experience, the taste of actually going there”.
The actor explained, “I never forget to work out 5 times a week. I don’t restrict myself to a diet. I eat what I like and exercise according to how much I eat. That’s my principle of staying healthy. Sleeping is also very important. When my body feels tired, I sleep. I always sleep horizontally with a big pillow”
Jang Dong-gun (51 years old) married actress Go So-young in 2010 and has one son and one daughter. He confessed, “I don’t really do skincare, but I do use sheet masks for my face. I had children at a later age, other fathers around me look so much younger. It is impossible to get back my appearance in the old days, but I’m conscious of maintaining my current look.”
