Jung Eun-ji, the lead singer of Apink, has recently dazzled audiences with her role in the popular Netflix series Miss Day and Night. The show, praised for its mix of suspense and humour, has quickly become a fan favourite.
Before her acting success, Eun-ji faced criticism for her weight during her Apink debut. However, she has since adopted a unique and effective weight loss strategy, shedding 15 kg in the process.
Here are her top five tips for achieving similar results.
Forget the Bland Boiled Foods

Many dieters turn to bland boiled foods to cut calories, but Eun-ji argues this can lead to rebound weight gain. Instead, she suggests using a modest amount of salt and seasoning to add flavour.
She recommends eating rice with green vegetables and skipping salads in the first week due to high-calorie dressings. Her healthy meal boxes include Greek yoghurt, oats, and honey, allowing for a balanced and flavourful diet.
Ditch the Late-Night Nibbles

Eun-ji used to indulge in midnight snacks, which contributed to her weight gain despite regular exercise. To combat this, she eliminated nighttime snacking and focused on balanced meals.
If she wakes up hungry, she chooses baked eggs, a Korean steamed egg dish, to curb her cravings.
Try the “One Chicken a Day” Plan

A chicken enthusiast, Eun-ji developed the “One Chicken a Day” diet, which involves consuming an entire chicken daily while avoiding other foods. Chicken is rich in protein, vitamin A, and healthy fats to aid in muscle building and fat burning.
Although this method helped her lose 5 kg quickly, she advises using it for short-term results and maintaining a balanced diet and regular exercise for long-term weight management.
Enjoy Whole Foods & Low-Carb, High-Protein Meals

- Mushroom and chicken breast sandwiches
- Korean-style brown rice bowls with low-sodium seasoning
- Low-carb fried rice made with cabbage, broccoli, shrimp, and tuna
These wholesome foods make her weight loss journey more enjoyable.
