"To save money, I would buy a lunch box from the convenience store and eat it for two days," APINK's Chorong expressed. The K-pop idol went on to add that there were also times when she would survive off of one box of cereal for a month.
Furthermore, even after debuting as APINK, Eunji and Chorong both shared that they forgot the importance of eating well as it was hard to eat an actual meal because of their extreme diets that the K-pop idols were going through to save money.
The APINK members then shared their gratitude to TV Chosun's "Foodie Heo Young Man's Baekban Journey," as it had been a long time since the two K-pop idols ate three special meals in a day.
APINK's Eunji and Chorong also revealed the difficulty of dieting as the two K-pop idols expressed, "Even when we eat patbingsoo during the hot summer, we would have to eat it without the red beans and condensed milk."
Later on in the program, APINK's Eunji and Chorong, and host Heo Young Man were seen having a good time eating octopus as they visited a restaurant with over 40 years of experience.
APINK's Chorong, who is known for her disdain of octopus, was surprised by the taste of the meal, while APINK's Eunji showed how to eat octopus, to the delight of K-pop fans.
