SHINee's Minho revealed some fun family traditions and his dedication to staying fit during his appearance on SBS's My Little Old Boy on December 1st.
Minho impressed the show’s hosts by sharing that his body fat percentage is just 7.2%, a number usually seen in professional athletes.
Seo Jang-hoon was amazed, noting that it’s the body fat of a lean athlete. Minho explained that he works out up to four times a day on his days off to maintain such a fit body.
He also opened up about his family’s annual New Year’s tradition, which has become a competitive drinking event.
"Until 2024, it will be the 4th edition, and soon we’ll have the 5th," Minho said. "Our whole family drinks together. It didn’t start this way, but now it’s a drinking battle. Who can handle their alcohol the best?"
Minho shared a funny moment from the third edition of the event, where his brother got so drunk that he became emotional and cried, which meant he lost the competition.
"The next day, my brother and I felt terrible, but my father went to work out and even did a hangover cure," Minho added with a laugh.
When asked how much they drink, Minho said, “We each drink more than five bottles of soju.” Seo Jang Hoon then asked about his mother’s reaction, and Minho replied, “She finds it very embarrassing. But since it’s once a year, she forgives us. It’s become a family event.”
Minho’s father, born in 1962, is a former football player, and Minho shared that his family tries to stick to the tradition only on January 1st.
"Even if my brother and I have other plans, we always go all out on New Year’s Day. I can’t lose anymore," he said, showing his determination to win against his father.
Fans got a glimpse of Minho’s playful side and his strong family bond, while also seeing his dedication to both fitness and family traditions.
