Comedian Ryu Dam went through an amazing transformation for his acting dreams.
On March 7, Sidus HQ released new profile photos of Ryu Dam. The comedian, who was known for his big size, shocked netizens with a slim figure and sharp features.
According to his agency, Ryu Dam lost 40kg (88lbs) by going on a strict diet and regularly exercising for the past 2 years. The transformation was majorly for his dreams as an actor.
