People Power Party leader Kim Jae-seop, elected in Dobong-gap, Seoul, in the 22nd general election, said on the 12th: “I looked into the possibility in advance to see if I could exercise in a gym exclusively for legislators when I would could go to the National Assembly. “But there weren’t many heavy dumbbells.”

President-elect Kim, who is a fitness enthusiast, appeared on CBS Radio’s “Approval Rating Meeting” and said this after being asked: “If he enters the National Assembly, will he use a gym exclusively for lawmakers ?”

President-elect Kim said: “There are not enough dumbbells and weight plates in the gym used exclusively by members of the National Assembly. If you go to the gym and only use the treadmill, it is not respectful to the gym.”

President-elect Kim said: “I go to a lot of gyms. “I cut five things and went for a walk,” he said. “During the election campaign, I couldn’t lift weights and just campaigned, but if I become a member of the National Assembly, I will exercise from time to time. “Exercise is a very important issue for Kim Jae-seop as an individual,” he said.

When asked, “Do you have anything to say to an opposition politician in the gym?”, President-elect Kim smiled and said, “How can you handle the National Assembly after hearing this?” “I will say that the National Assembly cannot be run with that weight,” he said.

On the first basement floor of the medical center there is a gym called the “Health Management Room”, a sauna and a barber shop, but only medical personnel can enter. Use of the gym and sauna is free.

President-elect Kim goes to the gym 6-7 times a week and eats chicken breast for one or two meals a day, which is why he is nicknamed “health minister” among the “health people.” It is known that the sum of President-elect Kim’s three main weight exercises (bench press, squat and deadlift) amounts to approximately 530 kg.

Born in 1987, President-elect Kim graduated from Seoul National University’s law school and ran an information and communications company. He joined the United Future Party (predecessor of the People Power Party) and ran for Dobong-gap in the 21st general elections in 2020, but was defeated. In the 22nd general election, he was elected, defeating Democratic Party candidate Ahn Gwi-ryeong, controversial for his remark to him: “Lee Jae-myung is better than Cha Eun-woo”.
