In his video, Rei revealed his diet when starting a new song promotion. Rei started the morning by eating half an apple. Then, he enjoyed Indonesian -style fried rice that he bought from a restaurant for lunch.
“When I promoted a new song, I tried to maintain my fasting period as long as possible. I enjoyed eating once a day, but I avoid spicy food and snacks late at night to prevent bloating. If I am still hungry at night, I usually will enjoy a few fruits,” he said in the video.
Rei only eats heavy once a day at lunch, for dinner only enjoy fruits or juice. This was done by Rei to keep his face from being swollen, because the next day he had to appear promoting the song again.
