Apr 16, 2025

MBN Marathon Entertainment 'You have to run to survive' is set to premiere on the 19th. The program, which features 16 people who challenge the full marathon course for different reasons, and Sean and Lee Young-pyo's real growth period, is attracting expectations, foreshadowing entertainment fun, sincerity, and emotion. Before the first broadcast, we looked at the points to pay attention to 'Run to Live.'"

# The birth of the first 'marathon entertainment'!

'Run to Live' is the first marathon entertainment in Korea, featuring the growth of 16 `new runners' challenging the 42.195km 'marathon completion'. From those with running experience to those with few, they are challenging themselves with different conditions and stories, but they are armed with extraordinary determination and sincerity enough to aim for 'Completion of Marathon'. They had already completed the '5km marathon' in early March as the first test, and have been fighting against them for more than a month under the direction and intensive training of the 'Run to Live' Sean and Deputy Director Lee Young-pyo. On April 19, MBN will participate in the Yeongjongdo Marathon hosted by MBN, and will also participate in the Sydney Marathon, one of the world's seven major marathon competitions, by selecting the last 'MVP' through the 'Boseong Marathon'. I wonder which of the 16 stars will be honored to compete in the Sydney Marathon.

# From Sean and Lee Youngpyo to Heo Jae and Yang Junhyuk...Fantastic lineup!

'Run to Live' drew attention as the marathon donation angel'Sean and former national soccer team Lee Young-pyo served as the general manager and deputy leader, respectively. On top of that, stars who have been loved in various fields, including Heo Jae, Bang Eun-hee, Yang Joon-hyuk, Yang So-young, Han Sang-bo, Jeong Ho-young, Bae Yoon-jung, Jang Dong-sun, Son Jeong-eun, Cho Jin-hyung, Choi Jun-seok, Sleepy, Kim Seung-jin, Ahn Sung-hoon, Yul-hee, and Lee Jang-jun, will show their sincerity in the marathon as 16 members.

Kwon Eun-joo, a former national marathon runner, has been selected as a coach who will help the runners challenge the marathon. On top of that, former track and field athlete Lee Yeon-jin, 'Korea's one-top athletic creator', Shim Eut-deum, 'Celebrity Marathon Record #1'Ko Han-min will join forces with the coaching staff to fully support the 16 'Tusan Crew One'. Bae Sung-jae and Yang Se-hyung have been selected as broadcasters to convey their vivid marathon challenges to viewers realistically, raising expectations.

# With a desperate story and a poisonous challenge, 'empathy + touching' preview!

The 16 first-time runners, who completed the golden lineup in this way, challenge the marathon with their own dramas. Heo Jae wants to be a hope for people my age`````````````````````. In addition, I wanted to give people in a similar situation to me hope that I could get back up even if something big happened, so I ran."

Head Sean, who leads them, said "I heard that all 16 of them have their own stories. Running is not just for the body, but it gives you the strength to shake off your worries in life and get back on your feet. To do this, a healthy body is the basic," he said, emphasizing that he would support their challenges both physically and mentally. Deputy Director Lee Young-pyo also said, `These days, many people start running not because of their health but because of their mental difficulties.' `I hope this program will serve as an opportunity to heal not only the cast but also the viewers.' In addition, Lee Young-pyo cited Heo Jae, Yang Jun-hyuk, and Choi Jun-seok as the `runners that are likely to be the most difficult.' If you play with sincerity, you will be moved in itself,' he added, adding that he will fully support their challenges and growth.

On the other hand, Yang Se-hyung, who served as a broadcaster, also revealed that he was a `learning maniac' and "In my case, after being discharged from the military, the gag program was abolished, leaving me in a situation of penniless without any work or agency. It was so hard at that time that I just ran around the Han River. But as I ran, I felt strongly that I was alive. After that, I recommended running to my acquaintances who are having a hard time with panic disorder or burnout"He confessed. He then said, "I hope that many people will gain courage and hope through the growth of this "new runner"."There is a reason why "Watch the show".

On the other hand, 'Run to Live' will donate with Korea Habitat to improve the residential environment for descendants of independence fighters. In the name of the star who was named MVP of each episode, donations are made for the distance that 'first runners' run. MBN's special plan for the 30th anniversary of the founding of the country, in which stars in various fields challenge marathons for their own reasons, will premiere at 8:20 p.m. on Saturday, April 19.
