DAY6's Young K showed off his presence on 'Talk Pa One 25 O'Clock,' sharing stories about his extraordinary appetite and memories of New York during his trainee days.
On the episode of 'Talk Pa One 25 O'Clock' that aired on the 23rd, Young K appeared as a guest and talked about his New York travel experiences and eating habits.
Known as one of the biggest eaters in the entertainment industry, when asked if he could eat a 2kg tomahawk steak by himself, he replied, "These days I eat less, but it would've been possible at my peak." Regarding his maximum meat intake, he added, "I can eat up to 8 servings of meat. And I'm not talking about thin-sliced pork belly," drawing laughter.
When Lee Chanwon asked, "Where does all that food go?" he answered, "I have the type of body that gain weight easily when I eat, so I have to empty it out every now and then. I manage my weight by not eating at times."
As a fan of the show, Young K recommended New York while recalling his trainee days, saying, "New York is a place full of memories. Back then, the top trainees were given opportunities to train overseas."
Having visited New York twice as a 'scholarship' trainee under JYP Entertainment, he added, "I remember visiting all three of the most famous pizza places back then."
When the New York correspondent introduced a famous local bagel spot, Young K said, "I'm relatively weaker when it comes to break, but I think I could still eat up to seven," surprising everyone once again.
