MBN Marathon Entertainment 'Basketball Legend'Huh Jae, 'Basketball Legend' Yang Joon-hyuk, Rapper Sleepy, etc. will complete the race ahead of the first broadcast" revealed the goal.
Ahead of the first broadcast on April 19 (Saturday) at 8:20 p.m., a special plan for the 30th anniversary of MBN's establishment 'I Have to Run to Live' is a sports reality entertainment that features 16 'new runners' who challenge the marathon for different reasons of life and Sean and Lee Young-pyo's real challenges. Heo Jae, Bang Eun-hee, Yang Joon-hyuk, Yang So-young, Han Sang-bo, Jung 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 be on the list of 16 members.
Among them, Heo Jae, who is 'the oldest Bigginer' and is 60 years old this year, wondered what kind of marathon is at this age about his determination to 'run to live', but I thought that I had to run if I wanted to live long. In particular, I challenged the idea of wanting to be a hope for people my age." He went on to say, `I hope many people will see my challenge and take courage to make it a turning point in their lives. I don't know about my wife and two sons who are still basketball players appearing in 'Run to Live', but I want to show them that they do their best. I don't know if my body will follow me, but I'll crawl and finish the race," he added.
Yang Joon-hyuk, who is 55 years old this year and is raising his first daughter for more than 100 days, also realized the limit of his physical strength while raising his childHe confessed honestly, "'Now I'm joining the 'I have to run to live' thinking that I should really work out now.'" He said that he was awake from 2 a.m. to 7 p.m. every day because of his daughter's parenting, and emphasized that "I'm worried because I'm currently gaining a lot of weight.". In fact, he succeeded in completing the marathon in the 'immortal national team' in 2013, with Yang Joon-hyuk expressing his ambition by "I'll finish it again to the end."
Yang Jun-hyuk, who was born in 1969, married Park Hyun-sun, who was 19 years younger, in March 2021. It is known that the two met as baseball players and fans and have been dating each other for 10 years. After the marriage, Park Hyun-sun said she was pregnant with twins, but at the eighth week, she left the child, who was believed to be a son, and gave birth to a daughter. Yang Joon-hyuk, who recently had a late daughter, made a second plan as soon as his wife gave birth to his first child. Yang Jun-hyuk said, "My wife had a caesarean section again, so I'm not fully recovered, but I'll have a second child as soon as I get recovered."When my second son comes out, I'll make him play baseball regardless of his will."
Sleepy, who is 40 years old, is also facing a fresh challenge, and she is expecting her second son at the end of this month after having a daughter last year. Sleepy, who soon becomes a father of two, appeared in 'Run to Live' as he wanted to show his child what his father was doing. I also felt the need to run in terms of improving my health because my physical strength became very poor." Then he said "I recently saw a fortune teller and he said he was going to die at 84. If you want to live a healthy life until that age, you need to take care of it now"I usually enjoy challenges, but many attempts have never led to a result. My goal is to restore my lowered self-esteem through this program. I will definitely finish the race, so please keep an eye on it."
As such, the special plan for the 30th anniversary of MBN's founding, in which stars in various fields challenge marathons for their own reasons, will premiere at 8:20 p.m. on Saturday, April 19.
