You are so eager to find out about!
Please come in~
[〈Today’s Guest〉 Exuding aura from even her back view] Hello
[Welcome!] You look amazing
[Haneul is shocked] Wow, you know
When a beautiful woman appears
Men usually say that
They don't know where to put their eyes
[Embarrassed] They usually say something like it
[Sohyun & Haneul don't know where to put their eyes] We don't know where to put our eyes
You have a strong presence
Oh my, I’m so flustered
Please introduce yourself
[Lee Soyoung] Nice to meet you
Comeback queen with a twist!
55 year old fitness model
[Today’s guest] Lee Soyoung, Fitness Model
[Shocked] That’s a lie
- It’s a lie that you’re 55~ - If you’re 55…
Whether it’s Korean age or not
[Unbelievable visual for a 55 year old] You’re older than me, but that doesn’t make sense
So you were born in 1969…?
Yes, I was born in 1969, the year of Rooster
Q. Is the secret to your youthful appearance something you were born with?
Didn’t even have acne during her sensitive middle and high school years
So, you didn't have any skin trouble with any kind of
- Skin care products? - Just anything
(Whatever product, I didn't have any trouble..)
[Gifted with the best skin] This must be you were born with
[Agree] If I use random product, it's disastrous
As you can see, my skin is also
actually a bit like African skin
[Skin so elastic and firm, anyone would want to feel it] Can I touch your skin?
It’s really elastic
I mean you can’t say it’s skin of an Asian..
[Have to keep touching it over and over] You can't say
[Astonished] This is amazing
[Amazing and stunning visual fit for Unnie] Unnie you are so amazing
[Keep touching] I can't resist
Results of natural talent + hard work
Could this really be?
Amazing
[Have to admit] I did inherit some good traits from my mom
- I really envy it... - It's so amazing
And I also started enjoying a program
called 〈Physical: 100〉
Where this Idol Lee Jang-jun
Was cast in the show
[Soyoung was in season 1] He seems to be in the season 2
[Program that was tough despite for 20s] He said it was overwhelming though he was in his 20s born in 1997
I can't believe that
You pulled through such harsh program
[Respect] I really respect that
It was so hard
It was harsh right?
Of course
[Considering] If they offer you another seat, will you be joining again?
Can I say, there is
A prestigious championship called Musclemania
[Even awarded from a world championship!] I became a triple champion at a prestigious international competition
[The reason for her casting] There also is an amazing senior model in Korea too!
Maybe they chose me to show just that!
That's what I think about my casting
So if they offer another spot for me
Even if I don't stand out significantly
I will give my everything
To show the strength of seniors
I can do it!
You've just mentioned
It's actually very challenging
[Incredible] To win even once at such a prestigious competition
But you told us you achieved a triple crown
[Just incredible] It's some record
Among all those moments, which one stands out the most to you?
It's been about over 10 years I've done this
I participated in about 20 competitions
[Incredible] I was in the TOP 5 in 2016
To achieve the physique I wanted, I even went into seclusion for a full three years
To move up in weight class
Through the effort
I won the national bodybuilding grand prix in 2019
[In the Musclemania Figure category] One of the six categories in the Musclemania competition
Evaluates muscle symmetry, overall appearance and body condition as well as posing and presentation skills
I secured a triple crown at the world championship!
It's not just about having a great physique
There's this 2nd round with the artistic element
(Wow~) Called the Muscle Dance
[Multi talented] It's a competition where even your dance is judged
You have to include 5 poses
[Muscle Dance requires Artistic element] To create something artistic
I used a Freddie Mercury's song created in a traditional Korean music style
[Interesting] And used a small Korean drum called a sogo
Thanks to this new combination, I got a good score in the second round!
[2019 Muscle Mania held in Miami] I think that was
Probably the moment I'm most proud of
I'm personally very proud of that moment
[She prepared it so hard without regrets] I have no regrets now
That's how much I am proud of myself
I like to exercise, too
[Anyone could already tell!] You are so fit
She has such hot body, too~
I know, she's so pretty
Well, I can't be compared, but
[The best] You're amazing
But when we exercise
Not only do our bodies get better
but it also helps our mental health
[Agreed] Of course
Before and after I started exercising
you know the confidence
My confidence
[Confidence UP!] Shot through the roof and I felt like I could do anything!
With that mindset
To be honest, I felt like I had this
presence and aura that I didn't have before
I really felt myself
So we actually
were intimidated by
[Best physique] not only Soyoung's physique, which was amazing
[The aura the moment she walked in] But also her aura, or presence
We can feel that presence here, right?
I'm not sure how much of it will be conveyed through the camera
[Exuding presence] But we can feel that presence
So I heard that you went on a long
[Sigh] salt free diet to achieve this physique
So these days, there are some people who are on a salt free diet
[Q. Did the salt free diet help you manage your body?] I was wondering how much it helped you
[A diet you should never do!] Let me tell you exactly, you should never do it
I use that method when I didn't know anything
[Shocked] And when I did it for more than 5 years
All of sudden my started losing my eyesight
5 years is too long...
So even when I was chewing kkakdugi
I would spit it out once I taste it
[When she lost her eyesight] The cause of my symptoms was unclear at the time
(So serious) Even if I did the blood flow test
I was like, 'What's wrong?'
But then I knew it along
It was because I didn't eat salt
From then on, she started the low salt diet!
After, some time being on a low salt diet
About a week later
The black and white was gone, and it didn't rain in my eyes no more
The symptoms disappeared just in a week after consuming salt
So I don't recommend salt free
I'm going to stay healthy in Korea
To promote how to maintain healthy body and mind
That's why I decided to come here on the show
And then I'm with you now
Welcome here because
[Agreed] Someone can continue to eat salt free
But if someone like you inform people
They can change their mind saying that wasn't it!
[Concerning] From a pharmacist’s perspective what do you think about a salt free diet?
[Strongly opposed!] Actually, I strongly oppose it because
The signals in our body are all influenced by minerals like sodium and calcium
These minerals play an important role
These minerals will be depleted and our bodies
[Like Soyoung experienced, physical condition is bound to be abnormal] will experience abnormalities such as visual impairment
I think it's bound to happen in such condition
[Empathy] Right away
That's what happened to me
You've done that for 5 years, right?
I've been eating salt free for about 5 years
I've been packing my own food more than 10 years
So, everyone should keep it in mind, it's not easy
So for those who are on a salt free right now, please, give it a change
According to our pharmacist
Appropriate amount of salt is essential for our body
I hope many people could
[To low salt diet] Revise their health planning
And always live a young life
When you work with younger generations
(Shy to think about it) Soyoung, who was so popular I heard there used to be a lot of young people who would hit on you
Do you still receive attention from younger people these days?
I only mentioned it briefly
But it became a big issue
[Getting more popular among women!] These days, younger girls
[Awe] approach me for a phone number
Even on the street
They would come and say that they are my fans
They want to take pictures with me
(Just a series of surprises...) They even strike up conversations in the bathroom
No, I really understand!
[Soyoung's popularity is so understandable] I understand because they need to get autographs
We become friends on Instagram, too
Then we become friends who hit the like button on each other's posts
[Makes her feel the good] I feel so good when I hear that and It's very rewarding
In a way, there are psychological restrictions
[Cute] on what I say
[Saying and doing things carefully as she become famous] and what I do
Right, we become more careful about things
Q. What is the thing you are most cautious about?
I go to the early morning prayer
[The empty crosswalk in the morning] There's no one in the morning
And no vehicle
(LOL) Jaywalking haha
What if
someone is watching when you do that?
No way, you work out like that
It shouldn't hurt to walk a bit more
[Funny] Oh, my God, why would you violate the signal
Ma'am, with this leg...!
So I said in my mind, "Don't do that"
I told my self to wait for the blue light until the end~
[Don't misunderstand, and don't violate the traffic light!] Right, we have to wait
Yes, like this!
It's a small thing, but you have to abide by it
Yep, sure!
[Salon de Pod] This is fun
Since we are in the same age group
Is there any exercise that you want to recommend to me?
Q. Do you have any advice for someone who is just starting to exercise?
Thinking
It's important to know
[The most important thing is to understand yourself!] the range of motion of the joint first
I'm working as a fitness trainer
I emphasize the importance of doing
[Joint mobility exercises that Soyoung came up with herself] joint mobility exercises as part of the warm up with my members
Give it a try
[Everyone, try it!] Wrist joint exercise that you can do sitting down!
Try moving it like this
The most important thing here is
to fix the elbow up
[Correct posture is essential!] Everyone can do this but this is not it
[Hard working] In case
When one falls down
and if the range of joint mobility is too narrow
This area here
[The importance of the range of motion] will be sprained or injured
Keep your arms fixed! Just move your wrists!
It moves like this, right?
It moves like this, too
Stretch it out, Stretch it out here
[Rehfreshing] One, two, three
Four five~
Flip the wrist to move it
Flip the wrist with your thumb and pinkie, and then press it gently
[Hardworking] Oh, with my thumb
It feels nice, isn’t it?
Move your elbow like drawing circle
These moves are all for warming up, right?
Warm up!
We need to
set the range of motion for my muscles that suits my body
[Passionate] This way, the muscle will look good
When I do weight lifting exercises
Moving just small amount
and moving way more like this
[Sudden question] Which way would be more effective to build muscles?
(Aha) Moving in bigger range
So setting the range of motion is
really important
[Range of Joint mobility] From Ankle - Neck - Shoulder - Pelvis
Pelvis!
Pelvis is the middle part!
[Pelvis is the point of the core!] Core is really important!
So range of pelvis mobility is
very important to me, as well
(A routine that is already exhausting only from warming up) LOL
Let's relax our joints one by one
- Takes some time lol - There are like ten parts in our body
[Teacher Soyoung has no mercy when it comes to workout] We have to warm up entirely
This is already tiring
As the range of mobility!
As your body moves!
If you think something’s not working for you
You have to do work those area to broaden that range
Oh you have to broaden it
[Even for the wrist joint mobility we just did] I just did this one
and compared to two of you
It showed a big difference
[What are you talking about..I can’t do it well either] I’m not good at it either
But Sohyun, you are
naturally flexible!
I’m well aware
that I’m not flexible
(lol) I was just moving like this
[Her body’s mobility range is obvious just with her wrist] It felt like this, and maybe my whole body would be like this
Q. Will keep working on Joint mobility help us?
I have set up the Joint mobility
For every single joint
[Soyoung’s ‘oint mobility] It took me about 25 minutes to do the whole set
I told you
- Just doing that will tire you out - All of my clients comes 30 minutes before
Let's say...
Someone arrives exactly at 8
I scold them a little bit
So you want them to arrive 25 minutes early
to do the pre-exercise, right?
Yes, at least 20 minutes!
They should be aware of these basic things
In order to find exercises that suits them
[Consistency is important for exercise] In order to keep consistence
- It’s the basics! - Actually, staying consistent with exercise is challenging
Anyone has done it for a month, two months
Or maybe a year
[‘Consistent exercise’ Feeling her consistency and diligence once again] But doing this every day like Soyoung is the challenge
Q. If you have advice for those who want to maintain a consistent exercise routine, what would it be?
Any tips for them?
I’ll tell you what I think is the most important
[Choose a role model!] You need to have a role model
Role model???
For example, if your height is only 158cm (5’2)
And you choose someone who is 180cm (5’11)
[Astonished] As your role model
[Do not recommend choosing someone so different] Choose someone that is similar to you
[Important to choose a role model that is achievable!] Someone that matches
Someone I would be able to become like
I have it on my Kakaotalk
Or on my phone’s background
Personally I respect
‘Carmen Dell'Orefice‘
who’s currently working in the US
92 years old model
[Amazed] She’s a model at the age of 92?
Maintaining her own type of beauty is
so attractive and impressive
[Just amazed] That's what I think
I look at her when I eat
[Amazed] I look at her and stay on track with my diet
You really have to want to become like them
If I think about it, when I did ballet back then
I had a picture of a famous ballerina
[Sohyun’s similar memory of putting up a picture] Kept on my cabinet door when I was a teenager and in my 20’s
(Feeling emotional to meet someone with the same experience) I would always look at the ballerina’s moves
I kept watching them when I eat
I was always like that too
We all will age as time passes
[We all age the same] Everyone is going to reach their 70’s and 80’s
I think about how I will be like when I reach that age
Then can I take Soyoung’s picture
And here
[My role model from today] Can I use it as my background picture?
Flustered (I’m not that good enough…)
- No, you are my wannabe x2 - I'm a nobody...
Of course, I have no chance of become what you are
[Confident] No, but at least just a picture
I'll have you on the background
It's an honor
You've already took
so many good pictures
- I looked her up on Instagram - Oh, you did? You've seen my pictures
Wow, but Instagram
You look even more amazing
And she seems to have
a really youthful lifestyle
Among much younger friends
Have a lot of fun
Q. What do you usually do in your free time?
Like EDM
A music festival
I really like it
[Shocked] I really like it, because
Why should only people in their 20s and 30s enjoy it?
The reason why people in their 40s and 50s can't enjoy it
- I don't have the energy - It's because they're sick by that time
[The reason why exciting music festivals became her hobby] The reason why I can keep running
Is because my shoulders don't hurt and my knees don't hurt
Because I worked out
- It's because of my stamina x4 - That's right..
So with 20s and 30s influencers
I can hang out
Being supported by physical strength, I can have fun and enjoy my life!
Since we enjoy the festival together
[Energetic Soyoung's secret!] A bit of energy that doesn't age? A secret to anti aging?
You both look young
But it feels different
- It's so energetic - I love both your vibe
Like a college student
It's that young feeling
[Their unique atmosphere] Sohyun is like a doll, that kind of younger generation vibe
(Magic of becoming wannabes to each other) So I really like this young feeling. We're wannabes
- Oh, really - If I had this kind of energy
The kind of energy like Soyoung
I could play
[Even a professional MC wants her energy] A different role in TV shows
[Really?] But I don't have this kind of energy
[Sohyun regrets over how challenging it was to try something new ] There are a lot of programs that I can't do
I don't think it's easy because
This energy I can't keep up with
[Can't keep up with the energy] No, you're still young!
[Reflecting] I need to live young again from now on
Pharmacist, you're young
You can be like her too!
[Promise to put in effort] We can do it
You're still young
It's totally possible
We've now met Soyoung
She goes to festivals for fun
And as we learned earlier
- [Pelvis 'joint ability'] You'll use your hip often! - Yes!
It's all related to dancing
So I believe you're a good dancer, am I right?
I haven't had structured education
on dancing
Even once
- You haven't been to any classes - No I haven't
[Flexibility is helpful] I'm flexible so hip movement is easier for me
[Amazing] I give out Latin American vibes
Oh! Then
Up down up up down
- That's how you use your hip? - Yes, something like that
- Like EXID? - Yes, sure
Yes, I teach my students that
And it's part of 'joint mobility'
- That's the exercise, right? - Yes, that's right
Oh then...
We'd love to see your dance with music
Can you show us a bit?
We want to see the exercise
We are really curious
Oh is that true?
[Salon de Pod] Then let's stand together
[Welcome to Soyoung's dance class] We'll start with the hip movement
I don't start dancing first
'Join mobility' starts by
Imagining there is a glass filled with water here
[Regular customer, a cup] A imaginative glass filled with water is what I often use in my class
(Altogether!) One, two, hip driving, hip driving
Keep your body aligned
(Wow) Try not to lean forward during this move
The rest stays still
It doesn't lean forward
[Robot Sohyun learning...] Remember to align
If you lean forward, you will drop the cup
Align your body
Making your hip tilt forward then backward
Tilt forward, backword
- That's the 〈Up & Down〉 choreography! - Hip driving~
Let's do hip-driving like EXID 〈Up & Down〉 altogether
Just one more
Let's do the circle, which is our hips' favorite
Belly button pointing at 45 degree, chest pointing to the front
[Very studious] Then your torso moves
You have to put in a bit of power
- Twist! - Now a circle
[There is a cup of water here] The cup is here again
The cup of water appears again
Then, like a duck egg
(Am I doing it right...?) Now the other circle
Drawing a circle in a different direction
And pop out your hips
Now align your body
This is a pose that many models use~
Now the other side, see which side is better
So when you take a picture
[Posing tips for pictures alongside the dance class!] That is the pose for you that makes you look good
This is 'Hips and Mobility'
Okay~
- It feels good, right? - (nods)
- So when I dance - Okay
You can feel that you can move your hips more freely now, right?
So you spread your legs a bit
Please turn the music up↑
[Hip movement you cant see anywhere else] Like this
You're like a American girl
(Wow) The move that we practiced early keeps coming out
You can apply this...
[Relaxed] They are all connected
[Surprised] I just like doing this
This dance is American style, right?
An American dance!
Like someone from LA...
LA dance
(People told me not to do this one) But it's swag
But this, we did this earlier
We practiced this earlier
[Moves that seem easy to follow along] I think we will be able to dance like you if we connect the steps
I watch a lot of idol dances but
[A dance where flexibility is more important than learning the moves] This isn't a dance that I learned
I know right~
When someone asked me to dance
I just move
I don't know for sure to be honest
It's just swag
[Embarrassed] Just swag
It just comes out naturally
But later
If we practice it as a challenge
I think it will look very good
It is good for your core strength too!
[The cup appears again] Imagine there is a cup of water here
Relax your shoulders
Just your hips
(Wow) It requires a lot of pressure on the anus
Thank you for showing off your swag-filled movements
[Applause] I don't know if I was helpful
Thank you haha
(Salon de Pod) Today, you did this with such energy
[Agree] that it's hard to believe your age
[Sohyun got good energy] and I received so much positive energy
Me too!
The energy!
Explosion of vitality and energy
At 〈Salon de Pod〉, we even give
〈Salon de Pod〉 guests a nutritional supplement gift from iHerb!
We gift them so that you can live healthy
But? It's random!
Oh! Really?
I hope you pick the one that's just right for you...
[Let's see] Random draw!
(What should I pick) What should I do, what should I pick
No matter what I pick, it's fine
Everything's fine x2
(Then...) But for fun!
After much thought, she chose
I'm usually not lucky..
[Open] Really? What did you pick?
Silymarin...?
(Never heard of it) I picked Silymarin!
〈California Gold Nutrition〉 Silymarin Complex 120 Veggie Capsule
I'm unfamiliar with this Silymarin Complex
[Curious] What kind of nutritional supplement is it?
Some might not know about the name 'Silymarin,'
- But have you heard of 'Milk Thistle'? - Yes, I've heard of that now
Everyone has heard of Milk Thistle = Contains Silymarin
Ah~~ (Understood)
[Q. What type of person should take Milk Thistle?] Isn't that for people who drink a lot
and have poor liver function?
Yes, that's right It's known as a liver supplement
For people who exercise
the liver is
extremely fatigued
So it is essential for people who exercise
Then, Soyoung, so far
Have you only taken the basic nutritional supplements?
I've taken them
But I'm actually out of them now
So I was going to buy one myself
['Silymarin Complex' just rolled in] Thank goodness
[Happy] I really like it
Does it contain the same substance compared to 'Milk Thistle'?
'Silymarin,' a substance in the milk thistle plant
Can it be replaced?
Those two are the same substance
Does it also relieve fatigue?
(Everyone understood) Yes, that's right
The reason people who exercise need 'Silymarin' is
Because it helps regenerate liver cells
It also reduces liver inflammation levels
So it's a must have ingredient for people who work out
and also for people who likes to drink, too
[Skilled for a lucky draw] I like it
But today, you really picked exactly what you needed
I really x2 ran out of it
How lucky
Thank you so much
So precious Silymarin
Please enjoy it and come back again next time!
Wow
[Sohyun & Haneul, we definitely want to meet you again] Thank you, please invite me
You said you were a little nervous at first today
But we were more nervous
(I was a little nervous...) You said you weren't nervous
[Thoughts on 〈Salon de Pod〉] Lastly, a few thoughts, please
They made me comfortable
And like this
They kept cheering me
Confidence UP from Sohyun & Haneul's compliments!
- So I felt so comfortable like I was with my friends I already knew - Oh, yes
〈Salon de Pod〉... I really love you all
[Hearts] It's so short, it's shorter than you think, right?
Is this over now?
Actually, we talked for a long time
[The site where time flew by because it was so fun] But it felt so short
(When women chat, they can stay up all night...haha)
Thank you so much for joining us today
And everyone
