Today, after a long time, dear friends have come to visit Ms. Kim Young-ja's house. When three lovely friends gathered, the topic of conversation naturally shifted to health. People were shocked by the changes. Oh my, I've become so thin! What do you mean thin? Right now, I’m... oh, I’m dying because of my belly! Do you have any other illnesses? I have high triglycerides. They say I have fatty liver. Isn’t that just a carbohydrate overload? It feels like all the carbohydrates are escaping. Wait a minute, what’s the relationship between triglycerides and fatty liver? Triglycerides are produced in our bodies, mainly in the liver. So, when triglycerides are produced excessively, if they are not used up, they can accumulate in the liver as fat. Therefore, the cause of fatty liver can be considered as triglycerides. Speaking of triglycerides, it seems like we are careful about what we eat.

I envy my friend who has such a slim figure. However, Kim Ja also had her slim days back then. Speaking of which, who is it? Yes, Kim Bo-mi. Among them, the one that stands out is the photo of her in a swimsuit. Oh my, she looked amazing when she was young! Her style was exactly the same; she wore matching outfits. I used to be really close with her, but I hadn’t seen her for a long time, so when I saw her on the broadcast, I was so glad. However, I hadn't seen her in a while. Among them, Ms. Moon-sook was particularly close to Ms. Kim Young-ja. They used to hang out at the swimming pool all the time. After her husband went to work, she would come to the pool, and I would go there after my work too. So, we spent the entire summer at the swimming pool. Looking back now, those memories come to mind. The next day, Ms. Kim Young-ja held a hand mirror.

I'm cleaning, and it's part of my effort to exercise whenever I can in my daily life. Let me check my step count with my instructor. It's 186. Earlier, it was around 60. Kim Young-ja's daily exercise goal is about 40 minutes. On days when I have broadcasts like today, I need to find time to exercise because there are many things to prepare. I have to go to the recording studio, but first, I'm heading to the hair salon to get my hair done. I'm taking the usual route but walking more energetically. Finally, I've arrived at the hair salon. How many steps did Kim Young-ja take on the way from home to the salon? When I came here earlier, I walked a bit over a hundred steps, but now I've walked a thousand steps, so that means I walked a thousand steps on the way here. Thanks to my efforts, my complexion has improved, and I've been told that my blood vessels are also healthier.

I think something is coming out related to that. Maybe that's why your skin looks so good. You always tell me that you prefer my bare skin without makeup. When I don't wear makeup, my skin looks the healthiest. I've only lost 1 kg so far. Really? You haven't changed your diet much, have you? I just wish my belly would go down. If my belly shrinks, I would look slimmer. That stubborn belly fat is actually a manifestation of triglycerides. People with abdominal obesity are likely to have high triglyceride levels. Among dietary habits, if carbohydrate intake is high, reducing the amount of carbohydrates, cutting down on alcohol consumption, or increasing exercise can help lower triglycerides and reduce abdominal obesity. The only option is to exercise harder.

Even if it's just a little, I wouldn't have climbed the stairs this hard in the past. I mean, look at this! Oh my, what a surprise! It's nice to see you! Oh, I met broadcaster Oh Young-sil at the station today. You look even younger! You're still working out hard these days. That's right! We need to build some muscle; I want to take off my corset too. I've been wearing a corset since I was four years old. There are also people who are worried about belly fat. We have practice today because we have a recording tomorrow, so we need to practice and work out. So, I think you don't have to do any special exercise if you're just walking around. I need to lose some weight too; you should lose some as well. Is this really my belly? Without this, I can't even do comedy.

I can't do it, so I'm telling you. Your blood pressure is normal. Oh, I'm in trouble; really, I'm in trouble. I'm going to take medicine tomorrow. I'm not taking any medicine. Why not? Well, since I'm a bit older, I think I can endure it. I don't know about running, but my mother also has high blood pressure, and she takes her medicine every morning. If she misses even one day, it's said that she can't skip it. The boss knows; everyone understands this. But now the hospital says to stop taking it. They say it can be stopped. If I exercise, I can stop it. If I reduce my triglycerides and stabilize my blood pressure, the day will come when I can stop taking blood pressure medication. So, I can't stop exercising. I never thought I would gain weight in my life. But now that I eat, I do gain weight. So, is this what the older generation calls aging weight? Right? That's why we also eat our food quickly.

On the way back home, I am briskly walking to make up for the exercise I missed. Balancing my broadcast schedule while trying to fit in exercise is quite challenging. Oh my, this is tough. I'm really feeling it; I'm shaking until the very end. Now, oh my, oh my, I can't go on anymore today. Let's see if I managed to achieve my goal of walking a thousand steps today. Well, I can overlook the slight shortfall as a cute little detail since I've been consistent with my efforts. 

A few days later, under the warm sunlight, Kim Young sets out with his nephew. It seems like they are planning to go quite far today. However, he appears a bit tense, unlike usual. There’s a junior colleague he used to be very close with, whom he hasn't seen in 30 years. He really wants to meet this junior. After a while of running, they arrive at a quiet mountain in Gangwon Province.

This is a vacation spot, but who are we really trying to meet here? Wow, in this beautiful forest by the stream, this person, who is showcasing their grace, is said to be Ms. Kim Young-ja. After three long years, she has spotted someone and her face lights up. The person she wanted to meet is none other than her fellow actress, Moon Sook. Oh my, when was it? She was one of the top stars of her time, acting alongside Shin Sung-il and Baek Il-seob, enjoying great popularity. Wow, she was incredibly beautiful! After leaving the film industry, she became a natural food and yoga expert, staying in the United States before returning to Korea last year. Since coming back to Korea, the two had hardly seen each other, but finally, after more than 30 years, they have met again. I have a leg injury and it hurts, but walking here has been so overwhelming.

It was difficult. Ms. Kim Young-ja welcomed Ms. Moon-sook barefoot. Oh, I really didn't know if I would see you again, sister. I missed you so much. I really wanted to see you. They embraced each other tightly, overwhelmed with the joy of reunion. One day, she suddenly disappeared, and then one day, I suddenly saw that she had aged. No, she hasn't aged; she had many wrinkles even back then. Oh, you look exactly the same, just with white hair now. Yes, your hair is a bit longer. I have aged a lot. I thought I would never see you again. Now that I see you today, should I be angry and cry or not? What should I think? This is the situation of separated families. Oh, how has your body changed? You've really gained a lot of weight. It's about 2 kilometers. I don't even have a program to lose weight right now. Really? Both of them boasted of their healthy bodies in their younger days, but time has passed.

I changed a lot of things. I was lost in memories, thinking about how cool you were. Oh my, look at that perm! How pretty! Oh, this isn't Hwayoung, is it? Look at you, you had such a beautiful body. Oh my, I need to eat some of that. Where did you post this picture? Seeing myself in the photo is both familiar and strange. You had such a beautiful body; your proportions were the best. I’m more long and thin, and you always had that shiny, firm skin. I’ve started a health project because I need to change my lifestyle. The reason is that I don't exercise much, and I've been eating a lot of salty food, which has affected my taste buds. Last time, I also did something about this.

So, teacher, we have prepared this. You tested this two weeks ago, right? It was a lower body flexibility test. Now, what results will we see today? Let's see, Kim Young-ja's lower body flexibility has improved a bit compared to last time. Since I have my age, let's see how Moon-sook is doing. She can do it all, wow! She really surprised me with her amazing flexibility, far exceeding the maximum standard for measuring physical age. It's impressive. The age difference between those two is only seven years, but Moon-sook's legs are going up so high. If you could share more about that... But as we get older, maintaining flexibility becomes more challenging, right? So, how do we achieve that? Well, let's take a moment to breathe, shall we?

Now I need to breathe. I can't do it, I can't do it. That's not right. Breathing like this is really tiring. Oh, Ms. Kim Young-ja, are you okay? Yes, oh, switching legs, ah, that feels refreshing. After that, when we do this, it feels like... Let's take a moment to learn a simple stretching exercise that helps improve flexibility. Place your hands on the chair and lean your upper body forward, relaxing your shoulders while lifting your hips up and slightly bending your knees. Breathe deeply five times, and then slowly rise. Okay. Today, my younger sibling, whom I haven't seen in a while, has become a health mentor for Ms. Kim Young-ja. Here too, right here. Over the past 30 years, we have shared countless stories quietly. Ms. Moon-sook has decided to share healthy recipes with Ms. Kim Young-ja. You have to help with the snacks. You should come quickly too.

We decided to learn together. We mix fermented soybeans, vegetables, nuts, and plum extract, then place them on seaweed, topping it with low-sodium kimchi and paprika sprouts, and roll it up to complete the dish. We also learn how to make bibimbap with brown rice, fermented soybeans, low-sodium kimchi, and paprika sprouts. This is a healthy recipe prepared by Ms. Moon-sook. I thought about just using kimchi and rolling it up to eat, without adding anything else. It really is wonderful to learn about such good food and yoga. The teacher was amazing, thank you. I missed this moment so much. To commemorate our meeting, we decided to take a picture. I was sitting like this back then too. Time has passed, but we still posed the same way. It looked healthy, and she really looked much healthier than I did.

I felt that I needed to learn something from him, and his appearance was always the same. It was nice that everything was just as it was. I was very glad to see you. Alright, goodbye. Two people who met after waiting for 32 years, but there will surely be another day to meet again, as long as we stay healthy like this.
