We practiced a lot, butwe still couldn't do a good job.

The first event of Idol StarAthletics Championships...

is the 60m sprint.

There's someone who's inevery championship...

full of curses.

It's Yoon Yeo Chun. Welcome!

- Hello.- Hello.

I am Yoon Yeo Chun,the track and field commentator.

(He was knownfor his notorious curse.)

(Every player he pickswill lose the game.)

(They'd fall...)

(or fail to show theirbest performance.)

(They even lose right beforethe finish line!)

(It's Yoon Yeo Chun'snotorious curse.)

(Will his curse continue today?)

We talk about Yoon Yeo Chun'scurse every year.

- It'll be different this year?- Yes.

Goodness.

- Hello.- Hello.

- It's Leeteuk!- Yes.

I just got back aftermy tour in Southeast Asia.

I'm Leeteuk from Super Junior.

Did you wake up late?

Hello, everyone.

It's Leeteuk,the big brother of idols.

(Leeteuk is very quick-witted.)

Please pay attention to see...

if Yoon Yeo Chun's cursewill continue this year as well.

- I said that already.- Really?

Please explain the rulesof the 60m sprint in detail.

Yes. There will be four groups.

Each group will havesix participants.

The four who finishat the top of their group...

will be eligible to moveto the next round.

Among the 4 runners whofinished 2nd in each group,

the top two will be selectedbased on their records.

There will be six finalists.

(Track and field)

We will soon beginthe Women's 60m preliminaries.

The race will begin now.

Group One will now runthe Women's 60m preliminaries.

In lane one isYunkyung from Rocket Punch.

In lane two isLee Jin Sol from April.

In lane three is Luda from WJSN.

In lane four isJi Won from Cherry Bullet.

In lane five isOlivia Hye from LOONA.

In lane six is Saebom from NATURE.

This is Group One.

We have the prettiest memberfrom each group.

- Right.- Right.

- Mr. Yoon.- Yes.

What are your thoughts?

We have Ji Won from Cherry Bullet...

- in lane four right now.- Yes.

She was in the finals forboth last year's New Year...

- and Chuseok Specials.- She was.

I think Ji Won will do a good job.

I feel sorry for her already.

Her name is being mentionedfrom the very beginning.

On your marks.

Let's see how Group One does.

This is the momentwhen I become the most nervous.

- Right.- It's a nerve-racking moment.

Unfortunately, Yoon Yeo Chunpicked Ji Won.

Let's keep our eyes on lane 4 and 6.

Ready.

And they're off!

- Look at lane four.- She's very fast.

And they're off!

(Lane 4: Ji Won, Cherry Bullet)

She's a lot faster than the others.

- You're right.- I knew it.

(Lane 4: Ji Won, Cherry Bullet,Lane 3: Luda, WJSN)

(There's a huge gap.)

- She overcomes the curse.- Yes.

- My gosh.- Ji Won is fast.

She won the race very easily.

Ji Won of Cherry Bulletcomes in first.

- Yes, that's right.- A track race is all about records.

- Yes.- I think she'll naturally...

- be able to reach the finals.- Very easily.

Here are the records.

Ji Won of Cherry Bullet came inat 10.12 seconds.

And Luda of WJSN came inat 10.81 seconds.

Group Two will now runthe Women's 60m preliminaries.

All the other players in Group Twoare new to the race...

other than Lena of GWSN.

They're the freshmen of theIdol Star Athletics Championships.

- Yes.- That's right.

They're freshmen.

It's a race between freshmen.

- It's hard to predict the winner.- Yes, it's hard.

Let's hear what Mr. Yoon has to say.

Lena made it to the finals last yearat the Chuseok Special...

and came in fifth.

So I think she'll easily be ableto reach the finals again this year.

You picked Lenabecause she has experience.

- So you want to play safe.- Yes.

- What about you, Dahyun?- I think...

Yuji of 3YE on Lane Six will win.

- Why do you think so?- Because I think...

she'll run at a steady pace.

- Like her name?- Yes.

- That's what her name means.- You think she'll stay steady?

Okay, let's take a look.

To your positions.

(Most of the girls in Group Twoare new to the race.)

(Will Lena win the racelike Yoon Yeo Chun predicted?)

(Or will the victorygo to a rookie?)

Ready.

(Who will be the winnerin Group Two?)

- They're off.- It's begun.

(The race begins.)

Yeo Wool is fast.

- Yuji is doing great as well.- Yes, you're right.

- Look at Yuji.- Yuji is fast.

(Yuji suddenly sprintsand takes the lead.)

Lane six!

My goodness, Yuji wins the race.

(Yuji wins the raceby only a small difference.)

Nice!

Yuji kept a steady pace.

She came in first.Dahyun got it right.

Dahyun made the right guess.

She still has a smile on her faceeven though she just did a race.

Dahyun, you might winthe Entertainment Award this year.

Exactly.

She's a very strong candidate.

We have the records.

- A little over 10 seconds.- 10.22 seconds.

Lena didn't do very welleven though she made it...

- to the finals last year.- What happened?

She made it to the finals last year.

- My gosh.- The records...

What is this nonsense?

Has the curse begun?

- Yes.- Okay.

Group Three will now runthe Women's 60m preliminaries.

Eun Seo of WJSN is in this team.

She previously wonthe bronze medal two times...

for the Women's 60m sprint...

in the 2016 and 2018Chuseok Specials.

When she ran the 400m relayin 2018 Chuseok Special,

she reached the finish linewith a huge smile on her face.

And all the other idol stars...

referred to thatas the horrific smile.

- Yes.- Yes.

Eun Seo will easily be able to winthe race and reach the finals.

You're going to say that already?

It's a safe bet.

My curse doesn't haveanything to do with this.

She's a great runner.

Yes, she is.What about you, Dahyun?

I think May of Cherry Bulletwill win the race.

- Why?- May?

In order to win, you also needto be in good physical condition.

I heard she's 172cm tall.

- She's very tall.- Yes, she is.

Isn't she taller than you, Leeteuk?

That's pretty tall.

I refuse to stand next to her.

I would also like to refuse.

I personally thinkSeoryoung of GWSN...

- who's in lane six will win.- Why?

She's 157cm tall.

She may be small,but that will be her strength.

- I choose Eun Seo.- Okay.

I'm sorry.

(Dumbfounded)

I can't help it.She has amazing records.

- She's very good.- Yes.

- To your positions.- Eun Seo in lane three...

seems to bethe strongest candidate.

But someone else could alwaysend up winning instead.

A race againstthe potential winner...

and those who wantto take her place.

Ready.

- And they're off.- There they go.

(The race begins.)

Look at her go!

She's very fast.

(May takes the lead.)

- It's May!- May!

She was Dahyun's pick!

- May wins!- She wins!

There's Eun Seo!

Eun Seo comes in third!

(This is a very shockingand unexpected result.)

Eun Seo, I'm sorry.

May of Cherry Bullet wins the race.

Dahyun continues to bring luckto the ones she chooses...

while Yeo Chun continuesto bring bad luck.

- I mean, seriously.- We didn't plan this at all.

- Of course not.- I was also startled.

Eun Seo also seems a little puzzled.

She looks confused.

Very confused.

Dahyun, your hunch is amazing.

Look at May sprinting ahead.

- Eun Seo had a good start as well.- Yes.

But she had huge strides.

But Eun Seo even wontwo bronze medals.

- She finished at 9.81 seconds.- She's the fastest yet.

What's amazing is that the peoplethat Dahyun and Leeteuk chose...

both came in 1st and 2nd.

Dahyun, you should come with meto the Olympics in Tokyo.

What are you talking about?She's busy.

I think May could possiblybe one of the best runners...

among all the idol stars this year.

- 9.81 is the fastest...- Yes, she's the fastest yet.

- She has the fastest record.- Yes.

Group Four will now runthe Women's 60m preliminaries.

Group Four consists of idol stars...

who are very versatile and charming.

Who is going to be the scapegoatof Group Four?

Scapegoat?

- She's not a scapegoat.- Okay.

But I think this person hasa high chance of winning.

- Really?- She won a bronze medal last time.

I'm personally very fond of Yves.

- What?- What did you say?

It's not Christmas Eve.

I like Christmas Eve as well.

- It's way past Christmas Eve.- Right.

Yves is also very smart.

Her grade wasthe 11th highest in her year.

- Really?- Yes.

What does that haveanything to do with the race?

She's not only smart,but she's also a great athlete.

She's like a role model.

A role model?

(He says whateverthat comes to mind.)

Are you the school principal?

- Is this a speech or something?- What kind of nonsense is that?

Okay, you think she might winbecause she's a role model.

- What about you, Dahyun?- I think...

- Suyun of Rocket Punch will win.- Suyun?

She used to be a track and fieldathlete in elementary school.

- Really?- Yes, that's right.

- To your positions.- Yves in lane two...

was picked by Yoon Yeo Chunas a winning candidate...

because she's likea role model to others.

Let's see who will come inwith the fastest record.

Ready.

(Who will win in Group Four?)

- And they're off.- They're running.

(The race begins.)

Look at her run.

- Who is that?- Who's winning?

- Yves!- Yves is fast.

- Yves is taking the lead.- Suyun tries to catch up.

(It's a very close race.)

Yves wins the race.

Yves wins the race.

Yves of LOONA comes in first.

- She really is a model star.- Yes, she is.

- She's very smart too.- Right.

You look very happy.

- Let's take a look at the race.- Yes, let's look.

- Suyun was very fast.- Yes, she was.

Yves finished the race very nicely.

Yves came in first at 10.31 seconds.

She once won a bronze medal before,so it's not a surprise that she won.

By the way, Suyun came in second.

- Great guess.- Right.

How did you guess that?

You must get some kind of a hunch.

Yes, kind of.

- She was also the tallest.- Right.

Dahyun hasa very high accuracy rate.

But we expect a higheraccuracy rate from Mr. Yoon.

We say that every year,but he always fails.

- I have a question.- Yes?

- He never gets it right.- Right.

But every year, I always find himsitting in that seat.

That's not even what puzzles me.

I don't get how he'sthe track and field reporter at MBC.

I find that very interesting.

We have the overall resultsof the Women's 60m race.

The Men's 60m sprintpreliminaries will soon begin.

Group One will now runthe Men's 60m preliminaries.

We're now seeing...

the members of Group Onefor the Men's 60m sprint.

And I have to say,they're all very handsome.

This is the first groupof the Men's 60m sprint.

- This is important, Mr. Yoon.- Yes, that's right.

I think it was 2 or 3 years ago.I can't exactly remember.

But from what I know,Heo Chan of VICTON in lane four...

had a slow start,but he suddenly sprinted...

and came in second place.

There they go!

(Heo Chan, VICTON)

(Heo Chan had a slow start.)

(But he quickly caught upand came in 2nd.)

If he runsas fast as he did back then,

- I think Heo Chan of VICTON...- Heo Chan.

might be able to make itto the finals.

I'm very sorry.

Yes, me too.

He's in lane four.

What about you, Dahyun?

I choose Wondae of DONGKIZwho's standing in Lane Two.

- Wondae?- Yes.

- Why?- He's the tallest in the group.

- And...- You keep focusing on their height.

- You only care about their height.- Exactly.

That's very important to her.

That's all she keeps talking about.

To your positions.

- Dahyun picked Wondae in lane two.- Dahyun picked him.

And Mr. Yoon picked Heo Chanin lane four.

Let's see if Heo Chan...

will be able to overcomeMr. Yoon's curse.

Ready.

And they're off.

And they're off

- They're fast.- Look at Heo Chan!

- Heo Chan.- Heo Chan is fast.

- Heo Chan!- He's very fast.

(Heo Chan is the front-runner.)

(Lane 4: Heo Chan, VICTON)

(And he comes in 1st.)

- Heo Chan was very fast.- He's a very fast runner.

Heo Chan. Wow.

Heo Chan.

- He had a good start this time.- Yes, he did.

He not only did a great last-minutespurt but has good stamina as well.

- Yes, that's right.- He outruns the others easily.

In first with a record of8.42 seconds...

- is Heo Chan.- Yes.

In second is Wondae of DONGKIZ.

- Wondae's record is 8.47 seconds.- Wow.

- Wondae had a late start.- Yes, he did.

But the difference between hisand Chan's record is 0.05 seconds.

- Yes.- He is a dark horse.

He is definitely a dark horse.

What's greater than predictingthat Heo Chan would be in first...

is the fact that Dahyun predictedthat Wondae of DONGKIZ would win...

- without any information on him.- She is amazing.

- It's because...- We don't know anything about him.

we do not have any data on him.

All we know is he has a white beltin Taekwondo.

- That's right.- Wow. She is amazing.

Group Two of Men's 60m preliminarieswill begin now.

There is one athlete whom we shouldkeep our eyes on in this group.

It's Bang Chan who is in lane three.

He is an amazing athletewho was part of the finals...

for the Men's 60mduring the 2019 Chuseok Special.

That's right.

- And they're off.- There they go!

(Bang Chan came in firstin the 2019 Chuseok Special)

Bang Chan said that he runswhile imagining that...

Park Jin Young was watching him.

- Oh!- I think that's why he'll run hard.

There are times whenDahyun's intuition is not accurate.

- It's when there are athletes...- When they are in the same agency.

- from her agency is competing.- Yes, that's right.

- I just naturally support them.- That's right.

Mr. Yoon, do you think that...

Bang Chan of Stray Kidswill win this time?

Yes.I will make a safe prediction...

and go for Bang Chan of Stray Kids.

He is not an ordinary athlete.

Yes. Bang Chan.

If that's the case,I will have to choose someone else.

She wants to avoid his pick.

It's more important to avoid hispick than supporting your colleague.

- I'll go for the athlete in lane 6,- Lane 6.

- Yun Min.- Why him?

- Why him?- He is the tallest among them.

- He's 184cm.- That's right.

- She is very observant.- Yes, she is.

- Bang Chan is in lane three.- Yes.

He made it to the finalsin the 2019 Chuseok Special.

It's the first time for the othersto compete in this event.

Ready.

- And they're off!- There they go!

- Bang Chan is in the lead.- As expected, Bang Chan is leading.

As expected, Bang Chanis in the lead.

(Bang Chan takes the leadright from the start.)

- He is unlike the others.- He's the winner, isn't he?

- Yes, he is.- My goodness.

Bang Chan is in first.

Although Dahyun's predictionis not right this time,

she is happy since Bang Chan is inthe same agency as she is.

- Good job.- Yes.

It's because Park Jin Youngis eyeing him closely.

That's why he has to run faster.

You can't help but run fast whenyou have that thought on your mind.

Let's watch it again.

- He had a quick start.- Yes, he's fast.

It's because he is a great runner.

He won this round with a big lead.

Here are the results for Group Two.

Bang Chan is in first witha record of 8.14 seconds.

Yun Min is in last.

The tables have turned.

He is happythat he won against Dahyun.

- Yes, he is.- He won this time.

This is now a battle betweenan expert and an idol.

- Why would this make him happy?- He is mean.

(Dahyun is embarrassed.)

(But I am still happy that I won.)

Group three will now runthe Men's 60m preliminaries.

There is an amazing athlete...

- in Group Three.- You're right.

Hwal Chan who is in lane threewon the gold medal...

- at the 2019 Chuseok Special.- Yes, that's right.

They're off.

We don't know who will winthis race.

- Hwal Chan!- Hwal Chan!

(He's the super rookie who wonthe gold medal on his first match.)

He has an amazing record ofwinning the Men's 60m event...

- in 7 seconds.- That's a good record.

Because of that record,even without Mr. Yoon's prediction,

- he's surely a strong contender.- You're right.

We have Bang Chan, Hwal Chan,and Heo Chan.

- They are the Three Chans.- We have the Three Chans.

- Chan, Chan, Chan.- My goodness.

They are Chan, Chan, Chan.

- We might be able to witness...- Yes.

the battle between the Three Chansin this year's event.

- Ready.- Aren't there any other athletes...

who has the potential to winas well?

I think Hwal Chan will be leadingwith a big gap.

That's expected to happen.

- That's expected to happen.- It's because he's a gold medalist.

That's right

But will we be able to witnessan unexpected outcome today?

Yes, that might happen.

Set.

And they're off.

- As expected.- It's Hwal Chan.

- He's unlike the others.- He's just different.

(Hwal Chan is leading withamazing speed.)

- He's very different.- Yes, he is.

- It's Hwal Chan.- He didn't disappoint us.

Looks like we will witnessthe battle between the Three Chans.

- Yes.- Wow.

(Hwal Chan of GreatGuys is infirst with 7.98 seconds.)

- 7.98 seconds.- He's the only one in 7 seconds.

- Just like before.- Only he has that time record.

He's the fastestamong the Three Chans.

- He's the fastest.- That's right.

We can predict that he isthe strongest contender for...

- the gold medal for this event.- That's right.

Group Four will now runthe Men's 60m preliminaries.

In Group Four,

we'll be able to see athletesshowing off their running skills.

- They have amazing records.- Yes.

Especially Yun Sungwho is in lane four.

- He is an amazing runner.- Yes, he is.

The difference between his andHwal Chan's record is 0.04 seconds.

- Really?- There's also Jeon Woong in lane 3.

He qualified to compete inthe final round last year...

- and was in fourth.- When the record was 7 seconds?

Yes. Therefore, we will be ableto witness...

a close match betweenYun Sung and Jeong Woong...

to see who will be in firstin this preliminary match.

- Ready.- All right.

According to Mr. Yoon,

it'll be a close competitionbetween lane 3 and 4.

It's a battle between the silvermedalist and the one in fourth.

Both of them have recordsin the sevens.

(All of the medalist contendersare watching this match closely.)

Nam Yun Sung!

Nam Yun Sung!

Nam Yun Sung!

As expected, Yun Sung, who wonthe silver medal last year,

is the winner in this race.

- Jeon Woong is in second.- Yes.

He started running too late.

I expected him to start runningimmediately.

- He was late.- Yes, he was.

They had a big gap between them...

- at the 20 meter mark.- Yes.

But Jeon Woong managedto come in second...

because of his speed.

Their record would be similar ifhe started the race on time.

- Yes.- Yes.

I am curious about their record.

(Nam Yun Sung of AB6IXis in first with 7.93 seconds)

That's an amazing record.

Hwal Chan's record was 7.98 seconds.

Yun Sung is faster by...

- Yun Sung is faster.- 0.05 seconds.

Jeon Woong's recordis 8.13 seconds which is not bad...

- considering he started late.- It's a good record.

I will now read the athletesof the Men's 60m who will advance.

I plan to dance by myselfto our song.

Please say something to the medal.

She suddenly has to saysomething to the medal.

She has to send a messageto the medal. To the medal.

I want to win the medal.Please give me your support.

That was her messagefor the medal.

We enjoyed watchingthe video message for the medal.

Okay.

Is it over?

- It is an express interview.- The interview went quickly.

- Yes. I thought it was edited out.- Yes.

The athletes are very nervous...

as this is the final round whichdecides who will be the medalists.

I am an observer but I feel morenervous than them. Pitter, patter.

(Dae Hwi makes them laughuntil the final moment.)

Wow. He has potential.

I am Dae Hwi, saying goodbyefrom the Women's 60m Finals.

MBC.

Reporting with MBC, Lee Dae Hwi.

Yes, sounds great.

- Was that interview helpful?- Very much.

How was it helpful?

What was the most helpful for you?

Everything overall...

I'll analyze everythingcomprehensively...

- Really?- Yes.

and give you a sharp commentary.

- Sounds great.- As you can see,

May of Cherry Bullet hasthe best record as of now.

Her record was 9.81 seconds.

Also, Yves of LOONA won...

- the bronze medal last time.- Yes.

However, if you considertheir conditions,

Ji Won of Cherry Bulletin lane four...

- Yes?- seems to be in the best condition.

- You didn't go with the record.- Yes.

Ji Won didn't put inall of her strength...

- during the preliminaries.- I see.

- And I caught that.- Did you?

He can read people's physiognomyand catch those things.

You caught it?

He said Ji Won willwin the gold medal.

- What about you, Dahyun?- Let's hear from her.

I'll have to go withMay of Cherry Bullet.

- Right.- May, yes.

You have to go with her.

Because she picked herduring the preliminaries too.

- You're right.- Yes.

Dahyun has a good hunch,

- so she may win the gold medal.- Yes.

When I say something like that,

you say I'm only concerned...

- about their records.- This is the time to do that.

- We had the preliminaries.- We have to look at the records.

- It happened today.- Yes.

Mr. Yoon, you were looking atthe records from three years ago.

What about you, Leeteuk?

It's hard to tell,but I'll make a careful decision...

to go with Yuji of 3YE.

- Yuji.- What's your reason?

Because it looks like she could"Yuji" her power.

- "Yuji" her power?- Okay.

On your marks.

- Dahyun and I said...- It'll be May.

- May.- May is in lane three.

Ji Won hasn't won a medal yet,

but her record showsshe practically won one.

- Yves has a good record too.- Yes.

(The spectators are nervous too!)

Get set...

- And they're off.- They're running.

(They're at a similar speedduring the beginning.)

May is dashing off.

- May!- It's May!

Ji Won is a bit slower.

(She's amazingly fast.)

- May!- May wins...

the gold medal!

- May!- May wins...

the gold medal!

- May takes first place.- I knew it.

Dahyun's choice, May,wins the gold medal.

Yuji was the second place.

Is that so?

That means Mr. Yoon isthe last place among us.

- You're right.- Yes.

Ji Won was way too nervous.

No, she looksrelaxed and fine right now.

You said she wasin the best condition.

(Astonished)

Should you changeyour argument like that?

Let's take a look.

She hesitated at the start.

Yuji was the fastest off the line.

Ji Won was a little flusteredas Yuji dashed off quickly.

Wow, May.

She's all smiles.

May was much fasterthan the preliminaries.

- She was much faster.- Much faster.

May takes the gold medalwith 9.68 seconds.

And Yuji of 3YEkept her record well.

- Yes, she's done well.- This was her first year.

- Yes.- Yes, but...

See that? Dahyun mentionedboth May and Yuji,

- and they won the 1st and the 2nd.- Right.

- Is that so?- Yes.

Ji Won of Cherry Bullet wasthe most likely to win,

but after we mentioned hera few times, she wins the bronze.

- But that's still meaningful.- Yes.

She wins the bronze medalwith 10.01 seconds.

It's a great day for Cherry Bullet.Congratulations.

Congratulations!

(Congratulations.)

(Cherry Bullet goesto their supportive fans.)

- We won!- We won medals!

Thank you so muchfor all of your support.

We'll... We'll make surewe come back up here.

(Look forward to seeing them again.)

The Men's 60m Finalswill begin right now.

We'll move ontothe Men's 60m Finals now.

(Men's 60m Finals:Heo Chan, Bang Chan,)

(Hwal Chan, Nam Yun Sung,Jeon Woong, Park Seong Hwa)

Here are the qualifiers.In lane one is Heo Chan of VICTON.

In lane two is Bang Chanof Stray Kids.

In lane three is Hwal Chanof GreatGuys.

In lane four is Nam Yun Sungof NOIR.

- He's looking to win.- Nam Yun Sung.

In lane five is Jeon Woong of AB6IX.

Jeon Woong has a good record.

In lane six is Park Seong Hwaof ATEEZ.

I really look forward tothe Three Chans' competition.

Will the Chan, Chan, and Chanstop Nam Yun Sung?

- Exactly.- That's something to look for.

- All right.- Let me tell you a little more.

Hwal Chan in lane three was...

- the Chuseok Special's champion.- You're right.

And Yun Sung in lane four...

won a silver medalduring the last Chuseok Special.

- They're taking off.- They're taking off.

- Hwal Chan!- Hwal Chan!

(The winner was decidedby a mere 0.04 seconds.)

But the preliminary match showsthat Yun Sung was faster.

And Bang Chan in lane two.

His best record isthe fifth place so far.

But I think he came backready to win a medal today.

- Bang Chan.- He's in great condition.

- Right?- Yes.

- You can do it!- You can do it!

In that case, Mr. Yoon?

Hwal Chan.I'll go with the defending champion.

- I see.- You chose the former champion.

Dahyun?

Bang Chan of Stray Kidshas all of my support, but...

- But?- the records show...

- Yun Sung of NOIR would win.- Yun Sung.

- He'll make something happen.- He was pretty fast,

so I look forward to seeing him win.

What if I lose to Dahyun again?

(Something feels ominous.)

Then I'll follow Dahyunand go with Yun Sung.

- Really?- Yes.

- Then...- Yes?

- I'll go with Mr. Yoon.- Really?

- Goodness.- I'll go with him.

(Mr. Yoon holds Hyun Moo's handtightly for siding with him.)

(Will their enmity end today?)

Oh, gosh.

(There's no way.)

On your marks.

(The runners get ready to run.)

The Three Chans arein lanes 1, 2, and 3.

- Right next to them is...- NOIR.

Yun Sung, the silver medalistwho almost had the win.

But Jeon Woong and Seong Hwa...

both came to the finalswith great records as well.

- It'll be a close match.- It will be.

I think we'll use the VAR.

It looks likethey'll all come in at once.

(Everyone is focused.)

Get set...

- And they're off!- They're taking off!

- My gosh, Yun Sung!- Yun Sung!

(They all dash for the gold medal.)

Yun Sung!

(Yun Sung of NOIRquickly sprints out.)

Yun Sung!

(Completely focused!Mr. Yoon is uneasy.)

- Yun Sung!- Yun Sung is fast.

(Yun Sung and Hwal Chanquickly gain on Bang Chan.)

Yun Sung!

(Yun Sung reaches the finishby a hair in front of Hwal Chan.)

Yun Sung!

It's over. I think we need the VAR.

No way, it's Yun Sung.

(Yun Sung of NOIRwins the gold medal.)

- Was it Yun Sung?- It was.

- It was Yun Sung.- Goodness.

I... I shouldn't havefollowed Mr. Yoon's choice.

I must have gone crazy.

- You should have taken our side.- I must've been crazy.

I mean, how?

Yun Sung did very well,

but Hwal Chan started too late.

How can this be? Hwal Chan, come on.

He was way too nervous.

But later on, he usedhis big stride to speed up...

- He did catch up.- and caught up to him, but...

We have to take a look athow they come in.

Yun Sung wins.

- Did Yun Sung win?- Yes.

Although Hwal Chan's headcrossed the goal first,

- but that doesn't count.- Not the head?

- No.- You can't go with the head?

Their upper body, the chest portion,has to come in first.

(Their body, excluding the limbs,must pass the finish line.)

I must have been completely insane.

I forgot about Mr. Yoon curse.

- You should've sided with us.- I didn't think it through.

The records look amazing.

Yun Sung won this match...

with a similar differenceas the last match.

- Yes, it's the opposite.- The difference was 0.04 seconds...

- when Hwal Chan won.- Yes.

But this year, Yun Sung wins...

the gold medal with 0.03 seconds.

This is the first timeBang Chan wins a medal too.

- You're right.- A bronze medal.

It looks like our next championshipwill be even more interesting.

- You're right.- Dahyun, you need to come back.

Dahyun is really amazing.

- She is.- We didn't plot anything.

- There's nothing here.- There's nothing.

- All we have are the scripts.- This is Dahyun's hunch.

She should go tothe Tokyo Olympics instead of you.

- Seriously.- Yes, sure.

- Goodness.- "Yes, sure."

- "Sure"?- "Sure."

The curse of Mr. Yoon continues on.

Yes, it continued on.

Yun Sung winsthis return match as well.

(Yun Sung returns to winand takes the gold medal.)

- Nam Yun Sung!- Nam Yun Sung!

- I love you.- Congratulations.

I kept my promise and came in first.

Our CEO is supposed to buy us beefIf I came in first place today.

But I'll use that moneyto give you something instead.

- Right now.- You're the best!

(Yun Sung of NOIR, congratulationson winning the gold medal.)

(Ssireum)

(Namdong Gymnasium, Incheon)

This event was...

the talk of the townduring the last Chuseok Special.

Yes, you're right.

From a demonstration sport,it returned as a regular event.

Let's get startedwith the Men's Ssireum team event.

(Ssireum was selected as IntangibleCultural Heritage of Humanity.)

(They brought back the eventafter 3 years.)

(The players' fancy skillscaptured everyone's eyes.)

- Goodness.- Did you see that?

He used centrifugal forceand pushed him over right away.

That was the fastest match.

(Which group will take the titleas the champion of ssireum?)

And we havea legendary champion of ssireum,

Lee Tae Hyun, with us a commentator.

- Hello.- Nice to meet you.

- Nice to meet you.- Nice to meet you.

The curse of Mr. Yoonfor track and field...

continued onto this year.

But for ssireum, we havethe blessing of Lee Tae Hyun.

- All his predictions came true.- Right.

Can you do that again this year?

But it depends on the situation.I am worried.

Yoon Yeo Chun is at the bottom,

- Right.- so you can relax.

- All right.- Just don't be worse than him.

- Of course.- Yes.

I heard...

there are some ssireum acesthat surprised...

the commentator and coachesduring the practice.

Yes. There were several athleteswho unusually stood out.

I believe it's going tobe a very interesting game.

(Idol stars forgot aboutthe cold weather and practiced.)

Did you see that?

Just flip the opponent.

That's it. You are startingto roll now.

Three. All right.

(They were competitiveas if it's the actual game.)

(My goodness.)

Both of you are very fast.

As rookie ssireum athletes, we willplay with a fresh, fighting spirit.

- It was my first practice.- Right.

I think I have a chance.

Since I am joining the games,I think I should win.

We will work hard to win this time.

- I will do my best in ssireum.- We will do our best.

Please cheer for us.

It's already very exciting.

Someone's specialstage performance...

will heat up the atmosphereeven more.

- Do you see the people in yellow?- The fan club.

- Yes.- I can see them.

They are the fan club membersof the master of janggu.

Their fandom is as greatas the idol fans' fandom.

Yes. Right now...

Make some noise.

Park Seo Jin is preparingfor a congratulatory performance.

He's the master of jangguwho's shaking the entire nation.

Let's watch Park Seo Jin'sperformance.

Yes.

His performance is as greatas Super Junior's.

- It's fun to watch.- It sure is.

Look at that flashy janggu play.

Look at him playing the janggu.

Right.

- He sings well too.- Yes.

He changed the lyricsfor this match.

MBC is fair and square.

(A congratulatory performancecan't be more perfect than this.)

It's exciting.

That was a perfect ending.

It was a perfectly fittingperformance for ssireum games.

I am excited to see...

which idol star will becomethe ssireum champion this year.

We will continue onto the Men's Ssireum team event.

That's right. I am lookingat the list of participants,

and the last year'swinning team ASTRO...

and the semi-finalist team AB6IX...

- are not on the list.- I see.

Two new teams have joined.

They are VICTON and ATEEZ.

I heard there's a member who isalmost like a ssireum wrestler.

Dahyun, let's stop there.

Let's find out who that amazingwrestler is during the game.

Before we start,please explain the rules.

In the team event, the team thatwins 2 out of 3 rounds will win.

The individual eventwill be a single-round match.

- I see.- The match is for one minute.

If it's a tie, they will get30 seconds of extra time.

Yes. If it's still a tieafter the extra time,

the person who weighsless will be the winner.

- The team that weighs less wins.- Right.

It will be a six-team tournamentthis year,

so one team will begoing to the final round...

- by default.- Right.

That team might have the advantagebecause they get to save strength.

But they might be at a disadvantagebecause they are not used to it.

- That's right.- The last team that wins...

in the preliminary round willgo straight to the final round...

without a semi-final round...

- by default. Please remember.- Right.

This is the preliminariesfor Men's Ssireum team event.

The first match will begin.

(Men's Ssireum Tournament Table)

The first preliminary round will beATEEZ versus VERIVERY.

ATEEZ has the dominating aura.

- Yes.- They are all very fit.

ATEEZ is amazing.

I believe someone really talentedis on this team.

- Mr. Lee,- Yes.

he's not your pupilyou planted in the team, is he?

As soon as I saw Jeong Yun Ho,I wanted to scout him.

I compared my shoulders to his.

- I was really shocked.- Why?

He's got the bodyof a professional ssireum wrestler.

(Commentator Lee Tae Hyuntried grabbing Yun Ho's thigh band.)

Wait.

(Coughing)

He's too strong. Gosh.

(He had the powerto dominate the other wrestlers.)

(He's the only wrestlerto have never lost.)

He's got really wide shoulders.

- Yes.- Wide shoulders.

- He's got the wide shoulders.- He's got the wide shoulders.

The first match isGye Hyeon of VERIVERY...

versus Jung Woo Young...

- Of ATEEZ.- Yes.

(The fans arecheering passionately.)

Before Yun Ho comes out,VERIVERY needs...

- To win.- to win at least one match.

Stand up.

Ready.

(The match begins.)

(The two wrestlers fight intensely.)

- It's dangerous.- Belly throw.

Gye Hyeon.

Pushing off.

- It's nip and tuck.- Gye Hyeon.

- He tried the tackling move.- Stop.

(The referee stops the match.)

Right.

Since you can'tstep out of the ring,

the referee stopped the match.

Yes. There are two reasons.There's a danger of injury.

The match is supposed to bestopped if they leave the ring.

Stand up.

Ready.

(The match resumes.)

Gye Hyeon triedto attack aggressively.

But he's too light.

Major outer reaping throw.

(Woo Young succeeds todo the major outer reaping throw.)

(It happened so fastthat we didn't get to see it.)

Woo Young wins.

It was a belly throw, wasn't it?

- A major outer reaping throw.- Was it?

- A major outer reaping throw.- I don't know about techniques.

(He won! He won!)

Let's watch it again.It's a major outer reaping throw.

Using his back strength,he twisted Gye Hyeon.

His bottom touched the floor first.

- His bottom touched the floor.- It touched the floor first.

Gye Hyeon's bottomtouched the floor first.

Woo Young wins.

It was a close match.

ATEEZ won one point first.

This is bad for VERIVERY.

Jeong Yun Ho...

- He will be coming on the mat.- of ATEEZ is up.

Look at his shoulders.

He has a very strong-looking body.He's Yun Ho.

It seems like VERIVERYchose a member...

- who's as big as him.- Yes.

It's the match between two peoplewith broad shoulders.

(It will be our first time to seehow good Yun Ho is.)

If Yun Ho loses,ATEEZ will be in great trouble.

Stand up.

Ready.

- And they're off.- Yun Ho.

He shook his opponent once.

(The real wrestler is here.)

(Their jaws drop.)

Yun Ho is as greatas we all expected.

Mr. Lee,

is the fair?

- It's...- Their levels are too different.

- Dongheon is very strong too.- He's very strong.

- Is he a professional?- He is like a professional.

- His back strength is...- Yes.

He just lifted him and...

It's unbelievable.

It's not all abouthow strong the player is.

To do well in ssireum, you need tostick very closely to your opponent.

You have to manipulatethe opponent's movement...

and fall together.

He can do that too,on top of being strong.

This is unbelievable.

- You are too strong. Seriously.- I am sorry.

- He's too strong.- We heard it too.

It's good to be strong,but he's just too strong.

ATEEZ beats VERIVERYwith a score of 2 to 0.

Congratulations.

(Men's Ssireum Tournament Table)

(ATEEZ)

The second preliminary round ofthe Men's Ssireum team event is...

between VICTON and SF9.

It's VICTON's first time here.

However, there's a memberwho did ssireum as a boy.

- Really?- Yes.

- It's Im Se Jun.- Im Se Jun.

(On the first day, he slowlygot his skills back.)

(Shortly)

(He was in his element.)

He's really good.

That's a win.

(Se Jun was undoubtedly the ace.)

It's Im Se Jun.

He used to be in the ssireum clubin his elementary school.

SF9 met ASTROin the last Chuseok Special...

and was eliminatedin the preliminaries.

I hope they'll do well this time.

Stand up.

(SF9 meets a strong opponentin the preliminaries again.)

Ready.

(The match begins.)

- His posture is great.- Now...

he's the ace on VICTON.

His lower body is really strong.

It's the major outer reaping throw!

His lower body is really strong.

(He attacks with perfect timingas he was in the ssireum club.)

- It's Se Jun.- I knew he'd win.

Although this was a good match,

I'm really looking forward...

to the matchbetween Jeong Yun Ho of ATEEZ...

- and Se Jun of VICTON.- I'm also looking forward to it.

VICTON is ahead with one point.

(VICTON: 1, SF9: 0)

In the second match,

we have Su Bin of VICTON.

- He's known to be very flexible.- Is he?

It's Dawon of SF9.

Looking at the physique,Dawon seems quite strong.

- What do you think, commentator?- In the last Chuseok Special,

Darwin showed some amazing skills.

Darwin is an evolutionist.

- It's Dawon.- Yes, Dawon.

You said, "Darwin."

I meant Dawon.He's done great last time.

I'm making a lot of mistakes today.I apologize.

(Staring)

Stand up.

Ready.

He's...

- Dawon has great posture.- He does.

You think Dawon is favorable to win.

They're trying to figureeach other out.

They're going to look for a wayto attack now.

The engagement continues.

- That's really arduous.- Su Bin attacks!

- That's really arduous.- Su Bin attacks!

(Su Bin of VICTON wins.)

- Su Bin attacks!- Su Bin attacks!

- Dawon has lost.- Dawon has lost.

I think we need an explanationon this skill.

Su Bin attacked,

and as he was about to fallwith Dawon's returning throw,

he put his leg further inside.

- It was right here.- That's when his leg went in.

His leg was further in.

- This is the beauty of ssireum.- Yes.

I thought Su Bin would fallfor a second there.

He was about to fall,but he held out...

and went inside.It was a great skill.

This is Su Bin's flexibilitythat Dahyun mentioned earlier.

It is.

- It was possible because of that.- Right. It was his flexibility.

- Mr. Yoon, you were wrong.- About what?

Didn't you say you thinkDawon of SF9 will win?

No, I said he was only favorable.

- No, he said, "Darwin."- Right.

- That was the worst.- Yes.

That was probably the best thingwe've seen today in ssireum.

- Yes.- It was the best move so far.

Then ATEEZ and VICTON willgo against each other.

- That's right.- Right.

(Men's Ssireum Tournament Table)

(ATEEZ versus VICTON)

The third preliminary match ofMen's Ssireum team event will begin.

It's a match betweenONF and Golden Child.

The winner will winthe next round by default.

What's your prediction, Mr. Yoon?

By the looks of it,I think ONF will...

Are you just making a random guess?

No, I look at their builds.

- Their builds?- I'm looking at their builds...

- from a distance.- You look at their builds.

That's very important.

- But you've seen it wrong. U is...- Yes.

a bit smaller compared to Seung Min.

The members of Golden Child lookbigger to me.

(Anxious)

Stand up.

Ready.

(The match begins.)

It's a close match.

ONF practiced really hard for this.

And with a fine physique, it's...

(The bit bigger Bae Seung Minof Golden Child wins.)

- What do you think?- Golden Child wins!

What was the skill Seung Min used?

It went from the pushing offto the body-twist throw.

- That means he's very strong.- Yes.

He used the body-twist throw here,

but it didn't work,so he pushed his opponent.

It was the body-twist throw.

- Look. He was going for it.- He lifted his opponent.

He's also quite flexible.

(It was a perfect combinationof technique and flexibility.)

U, you have lost.

- Leeteuk.- Oh, boy.

You have a lot to learn from her.

Her puns are classy.

"U, you have lost."

- U have lost. Oh, boy.- Right?

How cute is she?

It's Dae Yeol versus WYATT.

WYATT of ONF must win...

so that they have a shotat advancing to the finals.

Wire is...

It's not Wire.

(Please...)

- It's WYATT.- It's WYATT.

- Wire is for electricity.- Yes.

You wire a building for electricity.

(It's WYATT!)

- WYATT has to win...- Hold.

- to advance to the next round.- Stand.

It's over once he loses.

Ready.

It's Dae Yeol versus WYATT.

The major outer reaping throw!The returning throw!

(WYATT of ONF wins.)

The returning throw!

It was the returning throw!

(WYATT!)

WYATT has won.

- You just took a deep breath.- Yes.

As you keep asking me these,

it makes me root for him.

Dae Yeol was trying to attack.

But WYATT took advantage ofthe force to throw his opponent.

This is exactly why your right footshould support you strongly.

They both had their legs in the air,but WYATT put his foot down first.

So his opponent had to be thrown.

This is how difficult it isto win by default.

The score is 1 to 1.

- I never knew ssireum was this fun.- It's fun.

We're seeing different skillsin every match.

- Yes.- Yes.

The team to advanceto the finals will be decided...

depending on who winsthis final match.

Lee Jang Jun is quite a runner.

- He's very athletic.- Yes.

- And HYOJIN looks sturdy.- Yes.

The winning team of this match goesstraight to the finals.

(Which teamwill advance to the finals?)
