Is it hard to maintain a model’s body?
Ji Huan Bo: It’s easy, even if I don’t have time to go to the gym every week because I’m so busy. But anywhere I am, I go to the hotel’s gym. I also play football. I box and I swim.
When you have a pictorial or a show, do you have any special preparation — you know, a special diet and more workout?
Ji Huan Bo: I don’t eat anything before a pictorial or show. No, I’m just kidding! No breakfast and no lunch, just one full meal a day for dinner with fruit juice, not too sweet.
I like fruits so much and also vegetables. My favorite fruit is banana.
What vitamins do you take?
Ji Huan Bo: I’m not taking any vitamins.
Do you have sweet tooth?
Ji Huan Bo: I like sweets so much but I have to control myself otherwise I will be taking too much sugar.

Like actors, you move in glamorous circles. How’s your nightlife?
Ji Huan Bo: I don’t go to bars to drink. I go to karaoke bars; I like to sing.
How much sleep do you get per night?
Ji Huan Bo: I want to get also seven to eight hours but sometimes, I sleep for only one hour. Not enough. It’s because I’m so busy. I’m always moving around. Last week, I went to four different cities in China in one day for work.
