Kim Minha Loses 10 lbs for Terminal Illness Role

Actress Kim Min-ha has revealed a significantly slimmer figure after losing approximately 9 kg. Kim Min-ha recently posted daily photos on her Instagram, showcasing her slender arms and gaunt leg silhouette.

This weight loss appears to be the result of her dedication to her acting craft to perfectly embody her character, rather than simply focusing on her appearance. Kim Min-ha is currently preparing to film the Netflix original movie ‘Let’s Shake Our Sun,’ in which she will play a terminally ill character fighting desperately against illness.

In an interview at the end of last year following the drama ‘Typhoon Corp,’ Kim Min-ha stated, “I accepted the director’s suggestion to lose some weight and started dieting.” She emphasized, “I lost weight by cutting out alcohol and caffeine and eating only healthy foods. I can naturally do this for a role.”

Kim Min-ha gained attention for her role as young Sunja in the 2022 drama 'Pachinko' and is scheduled to meet viewers through various projects, including the movie 'Hana Korea,' set to be released in July, the Netflix drama 'Honey Job,' and the Disney+ drama 'The Miracles of the Namiya General Store.'
