The 2024 Idol Star Athletics Championships!

- Let's go! - Let's go!

This event started in 2010...

and has a history of 14 years.

It's a sports festival with the top idols in the country.

The Chuseok Special...

of the 2024 Idol Star Athletics Championships...

- is about to begin now. - Yes.

This is Goyang Gym,

and I'm the history...

and the trilobite of Idol Star Athletics Championships,

Jun Hyun Moo.

- Hello, everyone. - Hello, everyone.

Hello, everyone.

I'm a new sportscaster to Idol Star Athletics Championships,

Jang Min Ho.

- He's a newbie. - Yes.

- Scanning this table today, - Yes.

I see that everyone except Hyun Moo is a new sportscaster.

- You're right. - Yes.

You look more like a news anchor, though.

- Thank you. - I agree.

The seven of us here...

will bring you a fun show today.

Great.

Hello, I'm YoungTak.

As a new sportscaster of Idol Star Athletics Championships,

I'll do my best...

to bring you the excitement and heat of the Idol Star Championships...

all the way to your living rooms...

on this bountiful Chuseok day.

- Yes. - This isn't a festival performance.

Why are you talking in that tone?

This isn't the Cornelian Cherry Festival.

- It's charming. - Yes.

The Cornelian Cherry Festival?

Come on, Hyun Moo.

The Cornelian Cherry Festival? What are you saying?

- It's really delicious, you know. - I was so surprised.

It's so delicious.

- It is. - Yes, it is.

The Magnolia Berry Festival and Cornelian Cherry Festival are great.

- Oh, my. - Hello, everyone.

I'm also a new sportscaster of Idol Star Athletics Championships.

I'm Lee Chan Won.

- Since all of us are new, - Yes.

I'll do my best...

so I can be here again for Lunar New Year next year.

That's great. Yes.

Hello. I'm also a new sportscaster, Kang Daniel.

- Oh, my goodness. - Yes.

You're so handsome.

I used to spend the holidays...

by taking part in Idol Star Athletics Championships.

Being here as a sportscaster...

is such an honor. I'm so grateful.

I'll do my best today.

- Yes! - Yes.

That's great.

Hello, I'm a new sportscaster, Haewon.

- Hello, everyone. - Hello!

- You're the only girl. - That's correct.

I'm happy to be the only girl.

I'll cheer on my fellow idols...

and do my best as a sportscaster.

You have great diction.

And our youngest.

Hello. I'm a new sportscaster, Jeong Dong Won.

Hello, everyone.

So pretty.

Except for me,

- this must be everyone's first time here. - That's correct.

Because you're all skilled at talking in front of the camera,

I'm not worried at all.

Tell me your resolutions as a sportscaster.

As a former idol,

I'm actually going to join the competition.

- What? - Oh, my!

Please look forward to finding out which category...

- I'll be very successful in. - Will you be very successful?

Yes, I will be.

I hope you all enjoy the show.

That's great.

I'm going to compete with Min Ho too.

- You are competing with Min Ho? - Yes.

- What are you doing? - The category we'll be joining today...

is probably one that is affected by the wind.

This is a no-wind area.

There's no wind at all.

That's why it's so hot in here.

- It's so hot. - I'll do my best.

(Wrapping things up himself)

That's great. That category.

I joined the 2022 Idol Star Athletics Championships.

Since I'm not very athletic,

I'm much more at ease sitting here.

That's great. Are NMIXX members competing?

They're competing in two categories.

Really? I'm excited to see that.

We'll hope for their success.

You're now watching 2024 Idol Star Athletics Championships...

Chuseok Special.

Please introduce the categories that are included this time.

Yes. Track and field is a category...

that cannot be left out of Idol Star Athletics Championships.

Please look forward to the 60m race...

and the 400m relay.

And we have archery and futsal, two categories that created...

many iconic scenes.

And please look forward to dancesport,

which was a big hit in 2022.

We also have a new category...

for 2024 Idol Star Athletics Championships.

Yes, that's correct. We also have break dance this year.

You'll be able to see elaborate and dynamic break dancing,

so show your support.

We're all wearing rings, right?

- Yes. - Yes.

This ring means we've joined a team...

that changes the lives of children all over the world.

That's right. In addition to us,

all athletes competing today...

will become one team...

and wear these rings...

to do our best for children all over the world.

If you look closely, this ring has two parts connected together.

It symbolizes our connection...

with children all over the world.

The 2024 Idol Star Athletics Championships...

strives to be a safe competition.

We'll do our best to put safety first...

and make this an accident-free competition.

We will now hear the athletes' oath.

The athletes' oath.

- Our oath. - Our oath.

All athletes participating in 2024 Idol Star Athletics Championships...

will follow the rules.

We will respect the referees' calls and other athletes...

and compete fairly with our effort and skills.

We will never give up, work together,

and compete honestly.

We will try earnestly in every match...

for the fans who are here today and viewers watching at home.

We will do our best as equal competitors,

not ranked by seniority.

Representative SHINYU.

Wonhee.

- SULLYOON. - SION.

Please give them a big round of applause.

The 2024 Idol Star Athletics Championships, Chuseok Special.

The opening ceremony performance will begin.

The performer...

is joining this event as a new group for the first time.

And they will disband after today.

They're a project group made for Idol Star Athletics Championships.

Trot Boys are getting ready to perform.

Here is the opening ceremony performance by Trot Boys.

(A warm-up to prevent injuries, "Stormy Road" by Trot Boys)

(To you)

(Moving to the beat)

(Feeling the music)

- Let's sing together! - Together!

(Let's go!)

Together!

(Heating up)

(A guitar duo)

Everyone. Please give our athletes...

- a big cheer! - Cheer!

(Shouting their cheers)

(Bring up the energy!)

(A performance that brings the athletes and fans together)

One more time!

(Everyone becomes one at 2024 Idol Star Athletics Championships.)

(Let's go!)

(Track and field)

We're in Goyang Sports Complex,

the indoor gym.

We'll begin the 60m race,

the representative category and root...

of the 2024 Idol Star Athletics Championships.

He is a long-time member of Idol Star Athletics Championships...

who has been cursing the athletes...

for about ten years.

Please welcome Commentator Yoon Yeo Chun, MBC's track and field commentator.

- Welcome, Commentator Yoon. - Welcome.

Thank you.

I'm track and field commentator Yoon Yeo Chun.

I think it's been about 14 years since I first sat in this seat.

Last time, I almost broke...

- the curse of Yoon Yeo Chun. - Yes.

But in the end, I failed.

(The curse started in 2011.)

(Whoever was selected by Commentator Yoon...)

(would make an unlucky mistake.)

(The curse of Yoon Yeo Chun has been on-going for 14 years.)

(Stumbling)

The curse has become even stronger.

I turned over a new leaf...

to break the curse today.

- You'll break it today. - Yes, I'm sure of it.

(Confident)

What do you look forward to seeing...

in the track and field races this year?

Questions like this one are important.

- Really? - Unlike Hyun Moo's questions...

about who I think will get first place.

We have some great MCs here today.

I brought someone good since I'm lacking a bit.

This year, exactly 36 men and 36 women...

- are participating. - That's correct.

There will be 6 groups of 6.

Only the runners who get first in their group...

will advance to the finals.

- We will begin with the women's 60m race. - Right.

Shall we take a look at the highlights of the women's 60m race?

We have many new faces this year.

We'll have a new women's 60m race champion...

- starting 2024. - Oh, my.

- It's the start of a new generation. - That sounds great.

The preliminary round of the women's 60m race will begin shortly.

They're all new faces.

That's correct.

This is the first time for all six runners.

(Women's 60m Race, Group 1)

(Let's go!)

Group One's race will begin now.

Since they don't have records yet,

today's race will become their first official record.

I'm excited.

- Seeing JULIE's hair tied up like that... - Tell me about it.

You're right.

- I think she'll be fast. - She must be no joke.

According to the information we received ahead of time, her record is 7.58 seconds.

Commentator Yoon. What do you think of her record of 7.58 seconds?

Dalshabet's Ka Eun holds the women's record, right?

- Yes. - That record is 7.68 seconds.

- She's 0.1 seconds faster. - She beat it.

(JULIE's record is 0.1 seconds faster than the event's best record.)

- It's very impressive. - We'll look forward to seeing her run.

I personally think Rocket Punch's YEONHEE in lane one will be fast.

She was a speed skater...

- in elementary school. - Is that so?

Apparently, she competed in the National Sports Festival.

Because she was a speed skater,

I predict she'll be a very fast runner as well.

- That's great. - On your mark.

They've taken their starting positions.

We could see a new record in the preliminary round.

Get set.

(I'm nervous.)

(The race begins!)

- There they go! - They're running.

- JULIE is fast. - JULIE is fast.

- Lane 4 is dominating! - Lane 2 is fast too.

(SANGAH and JULIE take the lead right from the start.)

Lane 4 and lane 2! JULIE!

Lane 4 and lane 2!

- JULIE is fast. - JULIE is fast. Lane 4 and lane 2.

Lane 4 and lane 2! JULIE and SANGAH.

JULIE!

JULIE!

(JULIE of KISS OF LIFE makes it to the final round.)

- Han JULIE! - Han JULIE!

You got it right, Haewon.

- That's right. - You can tell apart good runners...

just by the way they tie their hair.

- I see. - Yes.

For the women's 60m race, Group 1,

JULIE took first place...

with a record of 10.17 seconds.

JULIE of KISS OF LIFE makes it to the finals.

Group Two's race will follow.

Here they come.

The women's 60m race for Group 2 will now begin.

(Women's 60m race, Group 2)

Look at their facial expressions.

We can see their determination.

Please just don't get hurt.

- To make my prediction, - Yes.

YOUNG POSSE's JIANA in lane four.

JIANA.

- It says here that she is a tap dancer. - Yes.

If she can keep her balance...

and follow the rhythm,

she'll do well in the 60m race as well.

Commentator Yoon has his eyes on this athlete.

(Commentator Yoon's pick! Is JIANA secretly a good runner?)

(Will we see the new dark horse?)

(Winking)

Get set.

(The race begins!)

There they go!

- Lane 5 is taking the lead. - Lane 5 is taking the lead.

- SHEON takes the lead. - Lane one.

- Lane 1 and 5 and neck and neck. - Lane 1.

(SUI of Candy Shop quickly takes the lead.)

- Lane 5. Lane 1! - Lane 1!

- Lane 5. Lane 1! - Lane 1!

SUI is first place.

SUI came in first.

(SUI of Candy Shop makes it to the final round.)

(SUI)

JIANA of YOUNG POSSE...

couldn't break the curse of Commentator Yoon.

(Sadly, JIANA of YOUNG POSSE got 2nd place.)

She was capable of getting first place.

SUI, who got 1st place in Group 2,

- came in at 9.95 seconds. - At 9.95 seconds.

I see. JULIE's record was broken.

SUI of Candy Shop makes it to the final round.

I hope you can guess correctly for Group Three,

Commentator Yoon. You need to get it right once in a while...

for us to save face. Yes.

The women's 60m race for Group 3 will now begin.

Let me introduce the runners.

- In the 60m race this time... - We have many new faces.

We look forward to seeing them run.

Who do you have your eyes on?

Yves in lane six.

(Commentator Yoon's pick is Yves.)

She won the bronze medal in 2019.

- Oh, really? - Yves.

Because she has experience, I pick Yves in lane six.

- We'll keep an eye on her. - My picks...

are NANA of woo!ah! in lane 3 and SEEUN of STAYC in lane 4.

It's rare for people to say they're confident about running.

But they both said they were confident about running.

We should keep an eye on them too.

(A race between two people confident about running)

(Run!)

- Get set. - The race will begin.

I'm excited.

Get set.

- The race begins. - There they go! Oh, no!

It's the curse of Yoon Yeo Chun!

Runner of lane six stumbled!

(Lane 2, KELLY of BADVILLAIN)

(KELLY of BADVILLAIN quickly takes the lead.)

- What is this? - It's the curse of Yoon Yeo Chun.

KELLY!

KELLY crosses the finish line!

She fell!

Yves fell, everyone.

Yves, the runner Commentator Yoon mentioned, fell.

- This is the strongest curse ever! - Hold on.

How can you make a bronze medalist from 2019 fall?

- She got a bronze medal in 2019. - Yes.

How could this happen...

She's a very skilled athlete.

- But the curse of Yoon Yeo Chun worked... - You're right.

Right from the start,

she had trouble.

KELLY of BADVILLAIN took first place. Let's see her record.

She came in at 9.89 seconds.

(Women's 60m Race, Group 3)

(KELLY, Moon Sua, NANA, SEEUN, HIKARU, Yves)

(KELLY of BADVILLAIN makes it to the final round.)

We'll check the slow-motion footage.

She came in under 9.6 seconds in 2019,

but she was stumbling. She fell saying, "Yoon Yeo Chun!"

She stumbled and her legs gave out.

KELLY finished with a big lead...

- and made it to the final round. - That is correct.

The women's 60m race for Group 4 will now begin.

(Women's 60m Race, Group 4)

(AIN, YUNKYOUNG, Vin, NATTY, SEMI, SEOYEON)

Lane 1, AIN. Lane 2, YUNKYOUNG. Lane 3, Vin.

Lane 4, NATTY. Lane 5, SEMI. Lane 6, SEOYEON.

I personally think KISS OF LIFE's NATTY in lane four will be fast.

She has an impressive resume.

- NATTY used to do rhythmic gymnastics. - That's right.

I think she'll do very well.

I think SEOYEON in lane six will be good.

- SEOYEON of CSR. - CSR.

- She said she was confident in running. - Yes.

People often say they have quick feet...

or that they are pretty athletic.

But not many people say that they are confident.

- I think she's a dark horse. - I see.

Just that one thing makes her a dark horse.

- She's throwing her hat in the ring. - Yes, that's right.

That's important.

I hope you get it right this time.

- I will get it right. - You think so?

- He is sure. - Yes.

I'm sure.

- The curse has begun. - Get set.

Her starting pose isn't great.

(Her starting pose isn't great!)

- What? - Look.

- Her arms should be farther apart. - The pose isn't that important.

If they're too close, it's not good for starting...

- Whose fault is that? - You're the one who picked her.

(Nervous that she won't get 1st place)

NATTY has done rhythmic gymnastics before.

Her pose is nice.

(Will she dominate in track and field as she did in rhythmic gymnastics?)

Get set.

- There they go! - There they go!

- Lane 6! - Oh, lane 6.

- Lane six is fast! - You were right.

- How surprising. - Lane 6 and lane 1!

- Lane 3. - Oh, lane 6.

(SEOYEON of CSR in lane 6 quickly takes the lead.)

- How surprising. - Lane 6 and lane 1!

(Vin of BADVILLAIN accelerates and takes the lead.)

(Lane 6, SEOYEON, CSR, Lane 3, Vin, BADVILLAIN)

Go.

- Lane 3 took the lead! - Lead 3 just took the lead.

- Who will be the first? - Oh, my.

(Vin and SEOYEON came in almost at the same time.)

- That was so close. - We have to check the records!

We have to check the records! We'll have another look.

- It was between lanes 1, 3, and 6. - Yes.

(Vin of BADVILLAIN and SEOYEON of CSR came in around the same time.)

It was very close.

Let's check the photo.

(Look at that!)

- Oh, my. - That's so close.

In track, your upper body...

- needs to come in first. - Oh, really?

That means from the shoulders to the waist.

So you have to push your chest forward.

- Vin's upper body is leaning back. - You're right.

SEOYEON isn't leaning forward,

- but she's standing upright. - Yes.

- We'll check the results. - Okay.

It was decided that SEOYEON got first place!

(Women's 60m Race, Group 4)

(SEOYEON of CSR makes it to the final round.)

She came in 0.005 seconds faster than Vin.

- It's the difference of a strand of hair. - You're right.

The reason she could win by a hair...

was because I picked...

SEOYEON in lane six.

- That's not right. - It's a blessing.

If you hadn't mentioned her,

she would've won by a whole bundle of hair.

She barely beat the curse.

That was the closest race we've had.

The women's 60m race for Group 5 will now begin.

They said this was the toughest group for the women.

- Really? - Oh, really?

Because Choi Yu Jin of Kep1er in lane four...

and YEJU of ICHILLIN' in lane two...

have raced together before.

Last time, Choi Yu Jin of Kep1er in lane 4 got 3rd...

and YEJU of ICHILLIN' got second in the preliminary round.

- so neither made it to the final round. - That's right.

They meet again in the preliminary round.

I personally pick Jung Sun Hye of YOUNG POSSE.

She's an all-rounder for her group.

I look forward to seeing whether she's also a good runner.

- I pick Nien. - Nien.

I think Nien is a dark horse.

She said she was most confident about running.

You like athletes with confidence.

These 2 runners got 2nd and 3rd place 2 years ago...

with a difference of 0.16 seconds.

(Let's go!)

Get set.

- The result... - There they go!

Oh, no!

(Stumbling)

There they go!

- Nien is fast. - Lane three!

(Nien of tripleS takes the lead with frightening speed.)

- Nien is dominating. - Nien is dominating!

(That's what I'm talking about!)

(Lane 3, Nien, tripleS)

(Overwhelming speed)

- Nien! - Oh, my.

(Nien of tripleS came in 1st in a flash.)

Nien dominated!

(I did it!)

- You got it right. - Commentator Yoon got it right.

He got even better.

We'll check the records.

Nien, Group 5's 1st place,

came in at 9.60 seconds!

- That's almost the gold. - You're right.

Yes.

From the way she's moving her arms back and forth,

I'm guessing she was a runner in elementary school.

(Nien of tripleS demonstrated perfect form.)

She's moving her arms so nicely.

She's the exemplar.

She could be an exemplar of a running model.

Nien is a very impressive runner.

Do you think Nien could win gold today?

- Yes, I do - I see.

(I'll do my best in the finals too!)

The women's 60m race for Group 6 will now begin.

This is the long-awaited Group Six, the last group for the women.

There are many tall members here.

(XIAOTING of Kep1er, GAEUN of MADEIN, LUCY of woo!ah!)

If you're tall, you have longer strides.

That gives you an advantage.

I pick HANEUL of KISS OF LIFE in lane three.

She used to be an athlete in school.

Her nickname is Rice Sky because she likes to eat.

Will she be able to show off her power here?

- XIAOTING of Kep1er in lane four. - Yes.

- She's a gold medalist of dancesport. - That's right.

Please keep an eye out for XIAOTING.

I believe there will be a fierce competition.

(The last race to decide the last final round contender)

Get set.

- There they go! - The race has begun.

- Lane five takes the lead. - Five?

- XIAOTING! - XIAOTING!

(Please)

- XIAOTING. - Lane four!

(XIAOTING of Kep1er breezes past the group.)

- Lane 4! - Lane 4 is fast.

(Lane 4, XIAOTING, Kep1er, Racing against herself)

- XIAOTING. - XIAOTING!

She comes in first. Yes.

(XIAOTING of Kep1er makes it to the final round.)

This is my first time seeing XIAOTING run.

I was only watching her.

- XIAOTING. - XIAOTING.

Let's look at the highlights.

Compared to the runners behind her,

- her arm movements are big. - Yes.

- You're right. - Her arm movements are big.

(XIAOTING of Kep1er runs like the wind.)

How is she so pretty while running?

Haewon spoke from her heart.

- "How is she so pretty while running?" - Right.

I thought XIAOTING was a shampoo model.

- Seriously. - I was so surprised.

- I'm jealous. - You were jealous of her hair.

- Yes. - I love it.

XIAOTING came in at 9.64 seconds.

What's very surprising...

is that up to the 4th place, everyone came in under 10 seconds.

- This was a tough group too. - Very tough.

We watched all 6 groups of the women's 60m preliminary round.

Nien holds the record so far at 9.60 seconds.

Nien is 1st, XIAOTING is 2nd, KELLY is 3rd,

SUI is 4th, SEOYEON is 5th, and JULIE is 6th.

It was a difference of 0.04 seconds.

It will be an exciting final round.

We'll see who wins first...

- in the final round in a moment. - Yes.

(The women's 60m final round will take place in a moment.)

The preliminary round of the men's 60m race will begin shortly.

What should we look out for in the men's 60m race?

Who will be the track and field star that writes a new legend?

This 60m race is what gives male idols...

- the title of track and field idol. - That's right.

Min Hyuk of BTOB is still the track and field idol.

- Yes, that's correct. - Still.

Min Hyuk and Dong Jun...

- were great runners. - That's right.

(Men's 60m race, Group 1)

The men's 60m race for Group 1 will now begin.

(KEITA of EVNNE, LUTAN of BLITZERS, Cha Jun Ho of DRIPPIN)

I can really feel that there's a new generation now.

Every year, we have younger runners.

- DRIPPIN's Cha Jun Ho... - Yes.

has a very handsome nose.

- His nose is very tall. - Pardon?

Are you a face reader?

(Bursting into laughter)

He has a big and handsome nose.

His nose can cut through the wind.

Get set.

- There they go! - The race has begun.

- They're fast. - Lane five!

(Stumbling)

- Lane five. - Thanatorn!

(Thanatorn of The Wind takes the lead.)

- Thanatorn! - Thanatorn is very fast.

- They're in! - So fast.

He was first in his elementary and middle schools for short-distance running.

- That's right. - The Wind's Thanatorn.

Thanatorn dominated that race.

- He was very fast. - Oh, my. Thanatorn.

Let's check the records. We have a shocking record.

- Thanatorn came in at 7.87 seconds. - At 7.87 seconds.

SION came in at 8.19 seconds and became 2nd place.

Cha Jun Ho's record is 8.29 seconds.

They did a great job. Many of them came in within 7 to 8 seconds.

Right.

- Thanatorn was very impressive. - At the start...

- Lutan lost his balance for a bit. - Oh, no. He lost his balance.

- Take a look at the clip again. - Thanatorn's strides...

- As for Thanatorn, - Yes.

- he didn't go all out during this round. - Right.

In my opinion, he only used 90 percent of his agility for this.

- Yes. - Gosh. He didn't have to do his best?

Despite that, he finished with a record of 7.87 seconds.

I consider him a strong contender for the gold medal.

(Thanatorn is on the rise as a strong contender for the gold medal.)

Group 2 will begin the preliminary round for the men's 60m race.

Group 2 will begin the preliminary round for the men's 60m race.

(Men's 60m Race, Group 2)

(Hyeonbin, GON, SEUNGMO, YANGYANG, Hikaru, EJ)

There are a lot of athletic performers in Group Two.

They may be the group of death.

They're handsome.

Commentator Yoon. Is there a runner who caught your eye?

- EJ in lane six. - EJ.

- EJ in lane six. - EJ.

- Yes. - Could you tell us why?

He competed as a fencer when he was in middle school.

- Yes. - Agility is required for fencing...

- But... - given the nature of the sport.

Hikaru in lane five also competed as a fencer.

That boy too?

"That boy?"

- Then... - You're still a commentator.

I would pick both Hikaru and EJ.

- I see. Okay. - But...

- They were both fencers. - But personally,

I have my eyes on GON in lane two. He's in VANNER.

- Yes. - He was a baseball player...

for three years in middle school.

- Really? - Baseball players are quite fast too.

- Their running speed is impressive. - Yes, that's right.

All right. I wonder if his running speed can stand out in this round too.

I'll look forward to this race.

(Many athletic idol stars are in Group 2. Who will be victorious?)

(Nervous)

(SEUNGMO)

Everyone seems very determined to win.

- They look very determined. - Gosh.

That was amazing.

Let's check their records.

All right. Looking at their records, all of the runners in this round...

- finished around 8 seconds. - Around 8 seconds.

- Right. - Yes.

(SEUNGMO)

(I won 1st place.)

SEUNGMO's hobby ever since he was a kid has been soccer.

He also trained as a speed skater for two years and did fencing and archery.

He participated in soccer, basketball, and swimming competitions.

It turns out he has a lot of athletic experience.

Group 3 will begin the preliminary round for the men's 60m race.

it mentions that they all have an athletic background.

- Right. - Yes.

It will be tough to pick just one runner.

- I'll pick the guy in the first lane. - Yes.

- That's Choi JIHO. - Yes.

He's in AMPERS and ONE.

It says that he was on the track and field team for two years.

- I see. - Will you go with JIHO?

- That's Commentator Yoon's prediction. - Okay.

I'll go with lane five, Chael from LUN8.

He was on the volleyball team from high school until college.

I'll look forward to his performance.

Get set.

- All right. It's begun! - Everyone had a good start.

- Yes. - There it goes!

- Roh Hyun Woo is fast. - They're different.

(Roh Hyun Woo takes the lead.)

- Roh Hyun Woo is fast. - What?

- Roh Hyun Woo is fast. - They're different.

- Roh Hyun Woo is fast. - What? JIHO...

- Oh, no! He fell. - JIHO!

(Roh Hyun Woo tripped while running at full speed.)

(Meanwhile, Chael swiftly took the lead.)

- Chael is fast! - JIHO...

- He lost the lead! - There he goes.

- JIHO in lane five... - Oh, no.

- Chael finishes the race first. - It's Chael.

(Chael)

- That was... - Roh Hyun Woo was very fast.

- But he tripped halfway through. - What a bummer.

- As I was the one who picked first, - Oh, no.

- Haewon correctly predicted the winner. - Nice!

- Haewon correctly predicted the winner. - Yes.

A former volleyball player is indeed exceptional.

Let's check the records.

We have another runner who finished around seven seconds.

Chael finished in 7.97 seconds. JIHO finished in 8.14 seconds.

Roh Hyun Woo wasn't able to finish the race.

- He was very fast, though. - What a bummer.

Actually, Roh Hyun Woo had a great start.

- Right. - It was really good.

He was doing well,

- but he tripped halfway through. - Right.

But he managed to fall down without getting injured.

- I'm relieved to hear that. - Fortunately, he got up pretty quickly.

- Yes. - He fell down the right way.

It's a huge relief that he's not injured from the race.

- Yes. - That's a relief.

Group 4 will begin the preliminary round for the men's 60m race.

(Men's 60m Race, Group 4)

(Pagaehun, FUMA, Kim Dong Yun, Ricky, YOON YE CHAN, MUJIN)

All right. Surprisingly, they are also called the group of death.

- Is that so? - Yes.

(Ricky, YOON YE CHAN, MUJIN)

DRIPPIN is the only group that has competed on the show before.

That's the one with Dong Yun.

- Right. - Yes.

His record in 2022 was 8.11 seconds.

- It was 8.11 seconds. - It was 8.11 seconds.

- He was ranked 3rd. - He was ranked 3rd in the final race.

- Right. Wait. - I think he will easily...

- advance to the final race. - That's the type of nose you like.

- Right. His nose... - Gosh. He has a better-looking nose.

- Gosh. - His nasal bridge is higher.

- His nose... - That's Ricky from ZEROBASEONE.

- I like all of their noses. - All of their noses?

- All of their noses. - All of their noses.

He's got a pretty nose too.

- His nose is beautiful too. - He's got a stunning nose too.

I like all of them.

(Who will be named the best runner with a handsome nose among idol stars?)

Get set.

- Gosh. - It's begun!

- Gosh. - Lane six.

- Lane two! - Oh, my.

- FUMA is taking the lead. - FUMA!

- FUMA. - Lane two...

- FUMA is taking the lead. - FUMA!

(Running furiously)

- Lane two! - Oh, my.

- FUMA is taking the lead. - FUMA!

- FUMA! He finished. - FUMA.

- Gosh. - FUMA.

(He passes the finish line.)

- FUMA. - I'm curious about his record.

He was very fast.

- FUMA. - He was really fast.

- I was impressed. - FUMA...

came in first.

- I'm sorry to say this. - That was neck and neck.

But shouldn't his name be PUMA, not FUMA?

- That was a nice one. - He should be PUMA.

FUMA finished with a record of 7.74 seconds.

- His record is 7.74 seconds? - Gosh.

FUMA who finished in 1st place for Group 4...

has set the record for the men's 60m race overall.

Look at that.

(FUMA will advance to the final race.)

So it didn't matter if you had a handsome nose or not.

Right.

All right. FUMA showed us an incredible burst of speed.

- Right. - He should be PUMA.

- Well, - That was amazing.

- doesn't he have the best form? - Gosh. Seriously.

(He finished the race instantly with his incredible speed.)

Group Five will begin...

the preliminary round for the men's 60m race.

Group 5 will begin the preliminary round for the men's 60m race.

(Han Yu Jin, LUMIN, Yoon)

CHRIS from BLITZERS in lane one...

used to play ice hockey.

- Is that so? - Right.

Having strong core muscles must be advantageous for track and field.

- Right? - Yes.

Core muscles are referred...

to the muscles that support the center of our body.

The stronger your core muscles are,

- the more athletic you will be. - Just like CHRIS.

- Yes. He will have a lot of power then. - Right.

I would like to keep my eye on MAKI in lane three.

- Yes. - You talked about core muscles just now.

- Yes. - He did ballet as a kid.

- Then he must have good core strength. - Ballet is all about your core strength.

- Yes. I think he may be a good runner... - Core is important for ballet.

- with a good sense of balance. - Right.

Personally, I have my eyes on Yoon from NOWADAYS...

in lane six.

He won the gold medal at a semi-professional relay race...

- which took place in Daejeon. - Oh, my.

- I think he will easily win this round. - My gosh.

- Doesn't it make him a semi-professional? - Right.

- We should consider him so. - Yes.

Commentator Yoon. Who's your pick?

- I'll pick Han Yu Jin. - You will?

He also has a handsome nose.

(He found another guy with a handsome nose.)

(The single-round match between core muscles and handsome noses)

Get set.

- Let's check the results now. - It's begun.

There it goes! As expected, Yoon in lane six is taking the lead.

- Gosh. Lane four! - He's fast.

- MAKI in lane 3 is fast. - Lane 4.

- Lane 3. - MAKI in lane 3 is fast.

- Lane 3. - Lane 3.

- Yoon in lane six is catching up. - Gosh.

(LUMIN in lane 5 is catching up little by little.)

- Lane 3. - Lane 3.

- Lane 3. - MAKI in lane 3 won.

- MAKI. - He's in!

(MAKI will advance to the final race.)

- My guy came in last. - And...

- MAKI. - Commentator Yoon's pick, Han Yu Jin,

came in last!

- Haewon picked the winner again. - Let's go.

- Right. - Once again,

the runner I chose won the round.

- Yes. - All right.

MAKI in lane three had great core strength as expected.

We have 2 runners who finished around 7 seconds.

- More runners finished around 7 seconds. - MAKI finished in 7.9 seconds.

LUMIN finished in 7.98 seconds.

The difference between MAKI and LUMIN...

- was 0.08 seconds. - Oh, my.

MAKI had an amazing start.

- He still did a great job. - Great job, MAKI.

It's beautiful to see they're all trying their best.

Group 6's preliminary round for the men's 60m race is up next.

- Group Six. - They're the last group.

Group 6 will begin the preliminary round for the men's 60m race.

Let's check out Group Six.

After this round, the finalists for the race will be set.

Hyun Moo, is there a runner that caught your eye?

I have my eyes on XIAOJUN from WayV.

- XIAOJUN. - I see.

I hear that XIAOJUN does a lot of exercises for muscular strength.

So I reckon that he must have good core strength too.

I'll look forward to his performance.

The last spot for the final race will be determined by Group Six's round.

(Which runner will win the last ticket to the final race?)

(2024 Idol Star Athletics Championships)

Get set.

- It's begun. - There it goes.

- JAYDER is taking the lead! - Right now...

- Lanes 3 and 5... - JAYDER is taking the lead!

- JAYDER. - Lanes 3 and 5...

(JAYDER is in the lead by a slim margin.)

(Lane 3, JAYDER from WHIB)

- JAYDER! - JAYDER!

(But XIAOJUN starts to catch up slowly.)

- JAYDER! - JAYDER!

XIAOJUN!

- XIAOJUN. - XIAOJUN.

- XIAOJUN in lane 4. - XIAOJUN in lane 4...

won this round.

(XIAOJUN will advance to the final race.)

Surprisingly, two runners fell during this round.

- Let's check it in slow motion. - Right.

They were so fast.

JAYDER in lane three was doing well.

After this point, XIAOJUN took the lead.

XIAOJUN came in 1st place for Group 6.

His record is 8.32 seconds.

Let's review the records.

XIAOJUN's record is 8.32 seconds.

JAYDER's record is 8.40 seconds.

- The difference is very slim. - Right.

The preliminary rounds for the men's 60m race are over.

- Great. - The runner that won first place...

in the preliminary rounds is FUMA with a record of 7.74 seconds.

We have 4 runners who finished around 7 seconds.

I'm sure the men's final race will keep us on the edge of our seat.

A new idol group will receive credit...

for having the best track and field athlete.

- Yes. - Gosh, the final race.

You're watching the Chuseok Special...

for 2024 Idol Star Athletics Championships.

Now, we will now commentate on the team matches for archery.

She's joining us once again this year.

She won the gold medal in the team event...

at the 1996 Atlanta Summer Games.

Please welcome Commentator Yoon Hye Young.

- Nice to see you again. - Nice to meet you.

- Nice to meet you. - Hello.

I'm Yoon Hye Young, the archery commentator...

for the Idol Star Athletics Championships.

Actually, a lot of legendary clips from the show...

came from the archery matches.

It just shows how popular archery is among the viewers.

All right. Then let's find out how the archery games are organized...

for the Idol Star Athletics Championships.

There will be three different team events for archery.

One for women, one for men, and one for mixed genders.

Please look forward to the matches.

We will proceed with the semifinal matches for archery.

Could you explain the rules to us?

For each match, a team will shoot a total of ten arrows.

Each team will consist of four archers. They will take turns to shoot.

The 1st and 3rd archers will shoot 3 arrows...

and the 2nd and 4th archers, 2 arrows.

Just like the Summer Games,

they will only have 20 seconds to shoot.

After loading the bow with an arrow,

the moment they lift the bow from the ground,

the countdown will begin.

They will only have 20 seconds to aim and shoot.

All right, then. Let's check out the list of semifinal matches...

for the women's team event.

NMIXX advanced to the semifinal match.

- Yes. - Right.

- The lineup looks quite impressive. - Yes.

NMIXX showed a great performance for the dancesport match...

in 2022.

This year, they will try to win the gold medal for archery.

STAYC showed great results in the track and field event in 2022.

And ILLIT is the hottest idol group in 2024.

WOOYEON from woo!ah!, YooYeon from tripleS,

Hee Jin from ARTMS, and NATTY of KISS OF LIFE...

formed the Center Alliance and will compete as well.

If you don't mind me asking,

which team do you think will win the match?

The Center Alliance trained the hardest...

- this year. - That's right.

So my guess for the winning team of this match...

would be the Center Alliance.

The semifinal match...

for women's team archery will begin now.

I will now introduce the archers.

NMIXX versus the Center Alliance.

Haewon is the leader of NMIXX. And the Center Alliance...

- will be competing against her group. - No!

- Who's in the best form in the group? - Yes?

- Who's the best archer in the group? - In my opinion, with the youthful energy,

- I would say KYUJIN. - KYUJIN?

She will be able to stay focused and have more energy for now.

- "For now?" I see. - For now.

Then who do you think has the worst form in the group?

I think it has to be the oldest member, LILY.

- How old is she? - She's 23.

- So we should worry about... - Yes.

a 23-year-old's stamina?

My bad.

This is the first semifinal match for the women's archery team event.

Let's watch the match between NMIXX and the Center Alliance.

All right. NMIXX will go first.

- SULLYOON's first shot will be important. - Yes.

Well, I just hope the arrow lands on the target.

All right. Haewon only hoped that her arrow would land on the target.

All right. I think she has to draw her bow back a little more.

SULLYOON, please draw it back more!

- She can't hear you. - Is that so?

- She released. She got an 8. - Gosh, she got an 8.

- What? - She shot an eight.

- An eight! - Yes!

- That's quite impressive. - I'm proud of you.

She's not even trying to hide her favoritism.

- She said she was proud of SULLYOON. - I'm sorry.

The arrow was supposed to be right under her chin.

But it was slightly pushed up. Despite that, she shot an eight.

Given that result, I would say she did a decent job.

WOOYEON from woo!ah! will go next.

(The first archer for the Center Alliance, WOOYEON from woo!ah!)

- Her 20 seconds begin now. - She's slowly lifting her bow.

- Look at her posture. - Look at that.

- She's got an excellent posture. - Her posture is very stable.

- Her posture is great. - She stayed calm and shot.

- She shot a 9. - She shot a 9!

- A nine. - That was neat.

Her balance was great.

I thought shooting an eight was amazing.

But she shot a nine.

Her posture is excellent.

- It's like watching a professional. - Right.

She's got a great posture.

Right. I can tell she practiced a lot.

After shooting a nine, she seemed slightly disappointed.

That stood out for me.

All right, SULLYOON. You can't let that get into your head.

- This is your game. - Yes.

SULLYOON still has two more arrows to shoot.

(She's nervous for SULLYOON.)

This is SULLYOON's second arrow.

- I hope her left arm can hold it. - All the way.

- Her left arm must hold it. - Fix the arrow. Great.

You can do it.

(2 points)

- She shot a two. - Yes.

- It's okay! - Despite the low score,

- they are clapping for her. - Yes.

- Of course. - You're the best!

WOOYEON's second arrow.

(This is a great chance to widen the score gap.)

She's very calm.

- She drew her arrow. - Gosh.

Just like before, she assumed the pose very nicely.

- Let go slowly. - Excellent.

- Gosh. That was great. - It's a ten.

- She shot a 10. - It's a 10!

- That's amazing. - Ten!

- Isn't that a ten? - It's right on the line.

It's exactly on the line.

- Yes. It's on the line. That's a 10. - She shot a 10.

- That's right. - She shot a 9 and 10.

It was like watching Lim Si Hyeon.

- Right. - Yes.

Her posture is excellent.

(It just means her shot was that perfect.)

- She's very happy. - Yes.

- WOOYEON will create lots of memes today. - How pretty.

- All right. - Keep trying until the end.

(Startled)

She keeps getting startled.

- Was she just startled? - She got startled for the third time.

Aiming her bow slightly toward the bottom might help her.

Toward the bottom.

- But she can't hear us. - Yes.

Aiming it toward the bottom may help her.

- She shot a 10. - It's a 10.

- She shot a ten! - Yes.

- She must have lowered it, then. - What?

- How... - She shot a ten.

- What? - It's a ten.

- What? - Even Haewon can't believe it.

It surprised Haewon the most.

- Gosh. - Actually, Hye Young said...

her posture was good.

- And she shot a ten right away. - Yes.

(She shot a 10 with her stable posture.)

So far, WOOYEON has shot a 9 and 10.

She's about to shoot her third and last arrow.

She doesn't look nervous at all.

She seems relaxed.

She must prove to us that her previous shots weren't just luck.

(WOOYEON's posture is always stable.)

- It's a 7. - For her 3rd arrow,

- she got a seven. - Her left arm was...

- a bit shaky. Yes. - Her left arm was shaky?

NMIXX has 20 points. The Center Alliance has 26 points.

The Center Alliance is leading by six points.

LILY from NMIXX will shoot two arrows next.

Then NATTY from the Center Alliance will shoot two arrows.

Haewon was worried about LILY's stamina.

I wonder if she will still have energy for this.

She can do this.

LILY and NATTY will be the second archers.

All right. LILY will shoot first.

- LILY. Don't be startled. - Gosh, LILY...

Hold on.

- She has to close her left eye. - Her posture...

- But she closed her right eye. - Wait.

- Why... - Her right eye...

- That's not good. - No!

- She closed the wrong eye. - It's the wrong eye. Her eye...

- She shot a 5. - She shot a 5.

- It's okay. - What?

I've been the host of this show for a decade now.

I have never seen anyone put the bowstring on her cheek.

- She might hurt her cheek. - Right. She might hurt her cheek.

NATTY will shoot next.

This is NATTY's first arrow.

As expected, it's evident that NATTY practiced a lot.

LILY and NATTY will shoot only two arrows.

- Gosh, her posture. - She released the arrow right away!

- Yes. She shot a nine. - Oh, my!

- She shot a nine! - Yes.

- Her shooting time was very short. - That was... Yes.

She must have identified the aimpoint precisely.

- LILY shot a 5, and NATTY shot a 9. - A 9.

Will LILY close her right eye again?

Please!

LILY.

- All right. - Once again... It almost hooked her ear.

- Yes. She closed... - No.

- her right eye again. - It's her right eye again.

- No. - But she's drawing it back more.

- Her accuracy will go down. - I'm curious about the score.

What did she shoot?

- What? - This time,

- she shot a 3. - It's a 3.

Her arrows keep going up.

It would be great if she could lower her aim.

NATTY will shoot her second arrow next.

She looks like a professional archer on the national team from her posture.

I wonder if she'll release her arrow quickly again this time.

(NATTY's shooting interval is short.)

- She's quite fast. - She aimed it.

- She has five seconds left. - She shot it right away.

- She shot a 6. - It's a 6.

It's fine.

LILY shot a 5 and a 3.

And NATTY shot a 9 and a 6.

Here are the third archers.

We have JIWOO from NMIXX and Hee Jin from the Center Alliance.

The 3rd archers will shoot 3 arrows.

It will be nice...

- if she only hooks three fingers. - She looks pretty.

But she hooked four.

All right. The location...

- She shot it. - Yes.

- It's a 4. - She shot a 4.

- Hee Jin will shoot next. - Yes.

ARTMS.

The deity of the hunt.

I hope she will perform up to her group's name.

Hee Jin's first arrow.

- Her posture is excellent. - Yes.

- She released it right away. - It's a six.

It's a six.

Her left arm didn't support the shot...

- until the end. - Right.

- So her shooting was a bit off. - I see.

Twenty seconds may be short.

But it's enough time for them to stay calm and release the arrow.

Yes. Take your time.

- JIWOO. - Take your time.

- It'd be better to tilt her head up. - Yes.

- Great. - She shot it.

- It's a 5. - She shot a 5.

Next, Hee Jin will shoot her second arrow.

(It's a chance to widen the score gap.)

- Let's see. - She was careful this time.

- Six. - All right.

- She shot a 6. - It's a 6.

(The 3-point difference is quite slim.)

This is JIWOO's last arrow.

You can do this. Please.

She tilted her head too much.

It would be better if she straightened her head.

- She shot an 8. - She shot an 8.

- That's her highest score. - Gosh, that's a great score.

- With her third shot... - It's not so bad for NMIXX.

All right. This is Hee Jin's last shot.

- Let's see. - Now then.

- She shot it right away. - Seven.

She scored a seven.

- The arrows end up in the same area. - You're right.

- She's got her aim. - The arrows are clustered.

Here's the score.

It's 45 to 60. The score is 15 points apart.

The score gap has widened.

(The score difference is 15.)

The gap is quite big now.

(Sad)

I didn't know you were still here.

You didn't say a word.

- The good news is that... - Yes?

none of the arrows missed the target.

- That's true. - Yes.

- Thank you. - No problem.

Some people destroy the set every year.

- Really? - Yes.

- What a relief. - They aim for the banner.

- Let's think positively. - The arrows are hitting the target.

As Haewon said, KYUJIN must be the ace.

- It seems like it. - She's one of the last.

- KYUJIN must be the hidden ace. - Right.

(KYUJIN of NMIXX versus YooYeon of Center Alliance)

(KYUJIN, the last hope of NMIXX)

KYUJIN pulls the string.

She's closing her right eye too.

- It's the wrong eye. - Right.

It even looks like she's closing both her eyes.

- This is bad. She aimed at the set. - The set.

She shot at the set.

- Did she look at the left? - Yes.

- She should've closed her left eye. - The set.

- That is the Chuseok gift set. - That's right.

- We finally have one. - The set...

The first player to destroy the set has appeared.

- It's KYUJIN of NMIXX. - That's right.

The ace Haewon trusted and relied on.

KYUJIN shot at the left Chuseok gift set.

- Goodness. - Oh, gosh.

She's shocked. Goodness.

- Her shocked face is cute. - KYUJIN is shocked herself.

- She aimed at the wrong target. - Yes.

YooYeon is left-handed.

There are no left-handed national team athletes yet.

- Is that so? - More comfortable left-handed,

she's using her left hand.

This angle is a first on the Idol Star Athletics Championships.

- Let's see. - Okay.

YooYeon.

Gosh. A ten!

- Even though her right hand slipped, - It's a ten!

she scored a ten.

- YooYeon. - As expected from the Center Alliance.

(A thrilling 10)

(Relieved)

- Now... - She can take it easy.

- It's the team's last shot. - Yes.

- KYUJIN just needs to look cool. - Don't aim at the set.

- This is nerve-racking. - She's closing her right eye again.

- Why is KYUJIN closing both of her eyes? - Her left eye.

- Her head is tilting. - Let's see.

She might shoot at the set again.

It's the set.

(The first to hit the set twice in a row)

- The set again. - It's the set.

- No! - The Chuseok gift set.

- And two of them. - No!

- The people behind shouldn't move. - It's dangerous.

KYUJIN shot the set twice in a row.

- Is it a 3? - She scored 3 points.

YooYeon scored a ten before.

- The scores are worlds apart. - Yes.

With NMIXX scoring 45 and Center Alliance scoring 73,

Center Alliance wins with a 28-point difference.

Their skills were not luck.

(Women's Team Archery Bracket)

Say something to your NMIXX members. They worked hard.

In the last Idol Star Athletics Championships, we performed...

moderately well in the relay race.

It was a plain yet moderate performance.

- In short, we haven't changed. - No.

You have changed. It was plain back then. But this year...

was very noticeable.

In short, we were noticeably active.

Performance-wise.

Even so, they did a good job.

- Great work. - They did their best.

The second match will begin.

The semifinal match for women's team archery will begin now.

I will now introduce the archers.

ILLIT versus STAYC.

(ILLIT versus STAYC)

I'm looking forward to Wonhee of ILLIT.

- Yes. - She's athletic, has good posture,

and likes archery.

As for STAYC, they have the standard posture for archery.

So it's hard to predict which team will win.

- I see. - Personally, I think STAYC will win.

I heard none of them missed the target during practice.

- Is that so? - Really?

- That's amazing. - They practiced a lot.

(Good luck, Best STAYC!)

This is the second semifinal match for the women's team archery event.

It's ILLIT versus STAYC.

- Wonhee of ILLIT is up first. - That's right.

- And it's Sumin of STAYC. - Yes, Sumin.

(The first archer, Sumin)

STAYC shoots first.

- It's Sumin. - She's using four fingers.

With 4 fingers, she scored an 8.

- It's an eight. - Nice.

It would be nice if she relaxed a bit.

You're doing well.

The 2nd archer, Wonhee, will shoot her 1st arrow.
