Want to look like the viral sensation? Chuando will teach you how to attain his famous bod in the book.
Internet sensation Chuando Tan has a new coffee table book. In it, the professional photographer and artistic director, 57, details how he attained the physique that has people hailing him as “the male god who froze time”. When he was 53, Chuando was deemed young-looking enough to romance an 18-year-old Chen Yixin in their arthouse film Precious is the Night.

Book of age-defying tips
According to bookstore Kinokuniya's website, the 224-page Chinese hardcover is already a bestseller. The book came about as Chuando was approached by well-known publishing company Kadokawa Taiwan to do a pictorial memoir. “It took me a while to persuade myself to sign the contract. We spoke about it for two years, and I really appreciate that the company was very patient and sweet,” he said.
CD’s philosophy
In his book, he also shares more philosophical musings and how he manages to look the way he does. “Perseverance and consistency” plays a huge role, but Chuando averred that “this book isn’t about me telling people what to do.”
He reasoned that everyone progresses differently, pointing out: “There are already a lot of personal trainers in the market telling people how to work out and what to eat. So I just share my way of life and how I look at things. And what kind of diet I've been going for since young and exercises that work for me.”
Role model
But he does hope that his book can inspire people to live healthily. “They are puzzled about my age and the way I look, and this is what they want to learn,” said Chuando. At 57, he observed that his current mindset is “very different from when I was in my 20s”.
He elaborated: “Everyone deserves to be happy, but we need to learn how to be happy. We need to let go, especially in a world with a lot of pressure. So don’t sweat the small stuff. That will affect how you age and what you are like when you are old.”
