Professor Jung Hee-won, a leading expert in geriatrics, will appear on “Problem Child in House”
Professor Jung Hee-won, who graduated from Seoul National University College of Medicine, earned a Ph.D. from KAIST and currently specializes in the elderly’s complex diseases, chronic diseases and dementia, will share valuable health information and tips on “aging slowly” for healthy old age.
Professor Jung emphasizes the importance of “weight training”, stating that muscles are more critical than pensions. He notes that the value of 1kg of muscle is equivalent to 4 million won. The professor’s calculations of Kim Jong-kook’s muscle mass reveal an impressive value, turning him into a “muscle-rich” figure.
However, Professor Jung warns against excessive exercise, creating tension by stating that there is research indicating that those who engage in too much weight training tend to have a shorter lifespan. This revelation shocks Kim Jong-kook, known as the “God of Health” and “Muscle Man”, prompting the MCs to express concerns about his longevity. Particularly, Lee Chan-won urges Kim Jong-kook to refrain from excessive exercise, emphasizing the importance of his long life.
In addition to discussing exercise, Professor Jung takes a moment to guess the ages of the MCs. When he mistakenly assumes that Kim Sook is 51 years old, Kim Sook, who is actually 48, is shocked, leading to a humorous moment on the show.
As Professor Jung, a leading figure in aging research, takes the lead in sharing tips for a healthy 100-year life in this era of accelerated aging, viewers can anticipate an informative and entertaining episode airing on Dec 13th at 8:30 PM.
