That day, PD Na Young-seok asked the director and actors, “Do you often have company dinners?” When he asked the ‘Gunche’ team, who said they do, “Is there a menu you often go for?”, Koo Kyo-hwan gave an unexpected reply: “In my case, I sometimes buy the bar snacks I want and bring them along.”

In response, PD Na Young-seok asked Jun Ji-hyun, “When you go to such gatherings, is there anything you buy and take with you?” Hearing this, director Yeon Sang-ho said, “Actor Jun Ji-hyun has different eating preferences from us.” Koo Kyo-hwan added, “She has an ice box she carries around.”

Jun Ji-hyun is said to pack a range of foods in the ice box, including vegetables like celery as well as jerky. When Na Young-seok said, “You seem to place importance on meals, and on health too,” Jun Ji-hyun replied, “Especially when filming, if I eat too much, I cannot concentrate and I also get very sleepy, so I am careful.”

She then shared the workouts she has been enjoying lately. She said, “I do PT as well, and these days I do kickboxing. I originally went to do boxing, but they kept telling me to throw ‘kicks’. So I started, and as I kept doing it, I really wanted to kick well.”

She added, “When we were young, were there not many moments when we ran around to the point of being overwhelmed with excitement? But as we get older, those moments disappear, and with kickboxing you end up exercising to the point of being out of breath, so I really like it.”
