In a recent YouTube video, actress Lee Soo-kyung talked about her strict weight management routine and how she keeps her 49kg figure while dealing with a body type that naturally tends to gain weight.

Lee Soo-kyung talked about why she wears a rib cage belt to keep her waistline in check. Naver says she said, "They say the rib cage widens as you get older. My Pilates instructor also told me that I look different now compared to the past, and that is because my rib cage is getting wider." She added, "This is something I have to work on myself. I thought I should at least do this."

When she talked about her experience with the belt, she said, "Since it tightens my rib cage, the amount of food I eat decreases. Is that why I'm losing weight? I just can't seem to eat."

In an interview with Xportsnews, Lee Soo-kyung discussed her long-standing commitment to fitness. She said,"I always have to make an effort so that I don't go back to how I was in the past," and added, "I used to have a lot of pig-like tendencies."
