"Idol Star Athletics Championships" rookiez (Minje, Ihyun, Zeon, Hyerin) defeated Wakeone (Sung Hanbin, Bang Jimin, Kim Jiwoong, Choi Jieun) to win the mixed pistol shooting event.
On the afternoon of the 8th, MBC's 2025 Chuseok special Idol Star Athletics Championships (hereafter ISAC) aired, revealing results for events including dance sport, pistol shooting and the 400m relay.
The second event was the "mixed pistol shooting," and two men and two women representing each agency — four competitors in total — participated.
Wakeone (Sung Hanbin, Bang Jimin, Kim Jiwoong, Choi Jieun) faced SM (Sion, Yuha, Wonbin, Aina), and Wakeone members performed well enough to secure an early berth in the final. Next, Starship (Minhee, Esol, Jiyu, Jeongmo) competed against rookiez (Minje, Ihyun, Zeon, Hyerin). "Rookiez" is a special combination seen only at the 2025 ISAC — a team made up of fifth-generation idols who debuted this year. After a back-and-forth battle between the two teams, rookiez reached the final.
In the awaited final, Wakeone (Sung Hanbin, Bang Jimin, Kim Jiwoong, Choi Jieun) faced rookiez (Minje, Ihyun, Zeon, Hyerin), and the first competitors were Sung Hanbin and Minje. Sung Hanbin also showed good skill, but Minje won the first round by taking three shots. Bang Jimin and Ihyun produced a fierce shooting result that ended in a tie, and Kim Jiwoong and Zeon competed while Kim Jiwoong made a mistake by shooting in the low 3-point range, resulting in a loss. With an eight-point gap opening, the final match between Choi Jieun and Hyerin began, and Hyerin scored the top mark of 10.5, securing the championship for rookiez.
