GOT7 member Jay B has shared how he lost 14kg in preparation for his solo comeback.

On November 27th, Jay B held a media showcase at YES24 Live Hall in Seoul to celebrate the release of his first solo studio album, Archive 1: 'Road Runner'.

During the event, he opened up about his weight loss journey and how he got in shape for his new music.

Jay B explained, "I focused a lot on visuals while preparing for this album. But instead of making it obvious, I wanted to keep it simple and clean."

He added, "I gained a lot of weight during my military service, but I lost 14kg. This is probably the lowest weight I've been at while promoting, so I think I did a good job."

He also revealed, "I worked out a lot. I ran, did weight training, and as a hobby, I've been learning martial arts."

However, Jay B admitted that the toughest part of the process was controlling his diet. "The biggest challenge for me was managing my food intake. I almost completely cut out carbs," he shared.

Jay B’s solo debut album, Archive 1: 'Road Runner', was released on November 27th at 6 PM. Fans are excited to see his new music and look after his transformation!
