Wi Ha Joon showed off his stunning visuals with his jaw-dropping physique as he spoke about being physically fit and his view on "sexiness."

Wi Ha Joon explained an interesting perception of sexiness. He says it's not about age but a feeling. 

"I think people who look nicer as they get older have the same feeling when they are extremely immersed in their work and work hard. That's what sexiness is all about," he said. 

Moreover, the actor also dishes out his transformation from being skinny before his debut and now that he is considered as one of the sexiest Kdrama actors. 

Wi Ha Joon's workout routine started after he got out of the military. 

He said that he used to weigh less than 60 kg when he was 22-years-old, but he managed to build muscles and toned his body thanks to persistence in working out. 

To recall, the 30-year-old South Korean actor made it to People Magazine's 2021 List Of 25 Sexiest Men On TV, with Hollywood star Paul Rudd topping the list. 

At number 25, Wi Ha Joon was described by the publication as "totally gorgeous and sweet as dalgona candy."
