EXO‘s D.O. shared that he’s currently on a diet as he prepares for his first villain role.
On September 13, D.O. appeared on the YouTube show “Nothing Prepared”. During the episode, he revealed that he’s been cutting back on food and alcohol for his upcoming project.
In the episode, Lee Young Ji guided D.O. to the filming set, and the two reunited after two months. Despite the scorching heat of 37°C, D.O. brought out champagne that Lee Young Ji had gifted him and some whiskey he bought.
When asked if he had been drinking recently, D.O. said, “It’s been a few weeks. I’m on a diet now.” Lee Young Ji then asked, “Are you getting ready for something?”
D.O. confirmed, “Filming starts in September,” adding that there were about three weeks left before filming “Secret Forest City”.
“I’m losing weight for the role. This is my first time playing a villain. So far, I’ve mostly played kind or sympathetic characters,” D.O. explained.
Secret Forest City is a story about a regular man whose life gets ruined and turns into a nightmare. He then returns to take revenge.
