Footballer Cho Jae-jin¡¯s well-muscled body adorns the cover of the November edition of fitness magazine Men¡¯s Health. The magazine usually embellishes its covers with entertainment figures like Lee Seo-jin, Jo Han-seon and, in one notable instance, Lee Hyo-lee, a woman. Despite its fitness content, Cho is the first sports star to make it on the cover.
The sports star opens up about his deep affection for football while showing ¡°his perfect sculptured body,¡± the magazine¡¯s publishers say in a press release. He frankly unveils both his body and his philosophy of football, it says, and reveals his insight that the key to being in good shape is daily exercise. Since the 2006 World Cup, Cho has been attracting attention as a rising star with a sophisticated image appealing to the new generation. He plans to pose for a mobile photo spread, another first for a domestic footballer.
