What is the korean term for people who eat a lot but don't gain weight?
In english, I guess you could say that someone has a fast metabolism if they eat a lot but don't / barely gain weight or just anyone who finds it hard to gain weight.

What is the korean word for people who find it hard to gain weight even if they eat a lot of food?

감사합니다 :)

or by using basal metabolism,
그 사람은 기초대사량이 높아서 살이 잘 찌지 않는다.
