Jang Sung-kyu surprises with confession of secret gynecomastia surgery on YouTube

South Korean television personality Jang Sung-kyu shared a surprising personal anecdote on his YouTube channel, 'Manri Jang Sung-kyu.' During a segment where he and co-hosts consult listeners on their problems, Jang confessed to undergoing surgery for gynecomastia without informing his wife.

The revelation came in response to a listener's story about their wife secretly having breast augmentation surgery. The listener expressed confusion and suspicion about his wife's motives, particularly her desire for surgery on a part of the body only he would see.

“

Actually, I also had breast surgery. I had surgery to remove it because I had gynecomastia, and I did that without consulting [my wife] either.

Drawing from his own experience, Jang offered advice, explaining that his gynecomastia surgery was to reduce excess breast tissue, not augment it. He admitted to not consulting his wife beforehand. However, he noted that his wife understood his long-standing discomfort with his chest, which caused him to slouch and pull his shirt forward during activities like basketball. Because the surgery improved his self-esteem and satisfaction, his wife accepted it.

Jang encouraged the listener to consider his wife's potential relief and happiness with her own surgery. He suggested that if her satisfaction is high, it might be a cause for celebration, as he found personal liberation through his procedure. The listener expressed gratitude for Jang's candid advice and personal connection.

“

If your wife's satisfaction is very high, she might feel a sense of liberation she's never experienced before. I felt that. So, it might be good to celebrate your wife.
