The soloist now maintains his physique purely by working extremely hard to make time for his gym and eating a balanced diet.
Never giving in on the pressure
Wonho was forced to leave Monsta X in 2019 due to false accusations. Although it was a very tough period for him, he did not succumb to binge eating and depression. Wonho says eating healthy has become a compulsory part of his everyday routine.
Commitment
He never misses a gym session, even after 4 hours of dance practice. Wonho, in an interview given to Naver V App, mentioned that he lost 5 kgs in 10 days by cycling for 1 hour 30 minutes, running on a treadmill, and eating healthy.
Wonho says he only eats cheat meals when he is on set.
Wonho’s Favorite Supplements
Wonho’s favorite supplements are:
- Vitamins
- Protein shake
Wonho says, “It is very important to take vitamins. Vitamin activates energy in your body.” He also never travels overseas without his protein powder.
Wonho’s Favorite Foods
Wonho eats the most food among all his former group members. His best-loved food item is ramyun(Korean-style instant noodles).
Some of his other favorite foods are:
- Traditional ramen
- Chicken breast
- Radish leaves
- Rice
- Thin crust pizza
- Tangerine
- Cold noodles (only during summers)

Some meals that Wonho doesn’t like at all are:
- Tteokbokki(simmered rice cake)
- The crust of the pizza(Well, who does?!)
And just like most of us, he also hates eating alone.
Wonho’s Diet plan
Wonho eats 6 meals in a day. He prepares all his meals himself at the start of the day or a day before. Wonho makes sure to include a lot of antioxidants in his diet (such as tomatoes). He also consumes a variety of vegetables such as cabbage, kale, asparagus, broccoli, etc.
Note: Wonho avoids eating salty food as it leads to water retention in the body. If he ever eats a salty meal, he drinks warm water after it and submerges his lower body in hot water, and sweats a lot to lose water weight.
