Park Jin-young, who showed off his muscular body in the movie ‘High Five’, explained the secret to maintaining his body.

“High Five,” which opens on May 30, is a comic action film that tells the story of five people who accidentally gain different superpowers through organ transplants and meet those who covet their powers.Directed by Kang Hyung-chul, who made “Speed Scandal,” “Sunny,” “Tazza: The Hidden Card,” and “Swing Kids,” the film stars Lee Jae-in, Ahn Jae-hong, Ra Mi-ran, Oh Jung-se, Park Jin-young, and Yoo Ah-in.

At a press preview held at CGV Yongsan I-PARK MALL in Yongsan-gu, Seoul on the 26th, Park Jin-young mentioned the nudity scene in the play and said, “There was an expression in the script that said ‘like an animal.’ So when I was building my body, rather than just making it look cool, I thought about what it would be like if the character was a man with incredible strength.” He continued, “I built my body by dieting and reducing my food intake so that my muscles could be more clearly visible.”

He also played a dual role with Shin-gu in the play and embodied the old man’s speech perfectly.He explained, “I was so grateful to Mr.Shin-gu, who read all of my lines and recorded them for me.I kept practicing while listening to that recording.”
