Actor Seonghoon rose as a dark horse in the volleyball world with overwhelming physicality and fiery passion.
Seonghoon captured attention with the competitive spirit and outstanding physical abilities befitting a former swimmer on MBN sports entertainment Spike War, which premiered on the 30th of last month. Spike War is a program that depicts stars' volleyball battles on an 18×9m court.
Among them, Seonghoon participated in the mixed-gender celebrity volleyball team draft as a "physically overwhelming" member, making his presence felt from his first appearance. In the "agility test," he dived without hesitation at a short ball thrown by Director General Kim Se-jin, drawing admiration from other participants. His relentless fighting spirit immediately won over the directors and coaching staff and proved his passion for and potential in volleyball.
Seonghoon raised the broadcast's immersion with an attitude more sincere about volleyball than anyone else. Repeating intense practice left bruises on his arms, and even during a schedule in Brazil he continued practicing volleyball with locals, showing deep affection for the sport. He said he "tends to enjoy the ball coming at me" when expressing his passion for volleyball.
He also issued a direct challenge for the title of "core strongest" to Yoon Seong-bin, a former skeleton national team member and Olympic gold medalist. The现场 responded with applause to his bold challenge, and the "core top" match, in which the loser is submerged in water, began. Seonghoon withstood Yoon Seong-bin's powerful shove, raising the tension, and after fierce exchanges he pushed Yoon Seong-bin into the water to claim final victory. This scene became a decisive moment that firmly engraved his presence in the minds of directors Shin Jin-sik and Kim Yo-han.
Thus, from the start of the draft Seonghoon showed his true "serious about volleyball" side by leading with exceptional physicality and fighting spirit. Expectations are already building for his fierce performances to unfold in upcoming broadcasts.
Spike War airs every Sunday at 9:30 p.m.
