Comedian Kim Shin-young revealed that she stopped her 14-year diet after hearing words from the late Jeon Yu-seong while he was battling illness.

Appearing on the web variety show 'New Woman' on the YouTube channel 'Rolling Thunder' on the 19th, Kim Shin-young said, "I started losing weight due to numerous health issues, including hormonal imbalances, polycystic ovary syndrome, fatty liver, and hyperlipidemia." She added, "After regaining weight, I received overwhelmingly positive reactions from those around me. I no longer feel irritable, and I am truly happy."

Kim Shin-young shared an anecdote about the late Jeon Yu-seong as the reason she decided to end her 14-year diet.

She recounted, "I cared for Teacher Jeon Yu-seong. When he was wearing an oxygen mask, three taps on the bed were his signal to call me. One day, he tapped three times and said, 'I really want to eat jjambbong, but I can't. So you should eat more. Don't hold back—just eat and live.'"

She continued, "Throughout his life, Teacher Jeon would often offer me bread or chocolate, saying, 'Would you like some bread?' or 'Chocolate is delicious; would you like to try it?' But all I could ever say was 'No.' I think that stayed in Teacher Jeon's heart. As I reflected on my past, I realized I should just eat comfortably." Kim Shin-young also joked, "Lately, I can't even go for walks outside. People ask, 'Why? Are you trying to lose weight?' or tell me, 'Don't walk,' which makes me laugh."

On this day, Kim Shin-young entertained the audience by mimicking her grandmother's voice and imitating the unique traits of singers she met while hosting KBS 1TV's 'National Singing Contest,' using her signature charm and wit.

She also shared various anecdotes, including the story of sparring with Jo Hye-ryun in boxing and getting injured, as well as her experiences during her grueling schedule hosting MBC's 'Three Circles,' KBS 2TV's 'Youth Unbroken,' and various radio programs. In particular, she confessed her feelings of admiration for senior artists like Lee Kyung-sil and Jo Hye-ryun during her time on 'Three Circles,' admitting that while she was deeply loved by them, she never dared to get close.

Kim Shin-young said, "Growing up with my grandmother, I think I never met anyone my age who was like Lee Kyung-sil or Jo Hye-ryun. Now that I'm over 40, I often wonder if I can treat my juniors the way those two seniors treated me."

MC Lee Kyung-sil shared a heartwarming story: "A few years ago, Shin-young called me and said, 'Senior, I'm sorry. I know you were kind to me, but I was young back then.' Since then, she has sent us meat whenever the occasion arises. I realized that Shin-young has finally come to accept us."
