A photograph of a statue of Jesus boasting six-pack abs is going viral online.

The Huffington Post reported Sunday that the photograph of a very muscular Jesus on the Cross was shared on social media site Reddit by user Lokimonoxide. The title of the post reads, "Where is this glorious idol?"

The answer? A Christian sculpture park in Yeongcheon, North Gyeongsang Province.

The sculpture park was built in November 2012 by a pastor who, after retirement, needed a place to carry out missionary work. Pastor Jang Dal-yoon also built two sanctuaries and five exhibition halls in his hometown.
