Fond Memories of Shirtless Performances
During the show, Kim Jae Joong fondly reminisced about Lee Gi Kwang's penchant for performing shirtless in the past. With a smile, he asked,
"Gi Kwang, do you still tear off your shirt during your performances? You used to do it all the time back in the day."
Blushing, Lee Gi Kwang replied,
"Well, things have changed since then. I was pretty clueless back in the day. I mistakenly believed I had a great physique. I honestly thought so. That's why I went shirtless all the time."
Playful Banter Ensues

Kim Jae Joong then took a trip down memory lane, recalling the numerous occasions he witnessed Lee Gi Kwang's shirtless performances.
"I remember you were muscular all over. You had well-defined muscles on your shoulders and chest. And those abs, wow! You had a six-pack. You were always dancing shirtless, then doing your 'American dance,' and then dancing shirtless again."
Maintaining the Physique
Intrigued, Kim Jae Joong couldn't resist feeling Lee Gi Kwang's abs through his shirt.
"Whoa, you're still sporting those muscles! How did you manage that?" he exclaimed.
With a modest smile, Lee Gi Kwang revealed his secret,
"I balanced my diet and exercise routine while shooting music videos and maintaining my promotional schedule."
During his active years in the industry, Lee Gi Kwang was renowned for his frequent shirtless performances and his popularization of the energetic "American dance," showcasing his impressive hip movements on stage.
