Amotti, who appeared on 'Radio Star,' dispels long-standing questions by revealing everything from misunderstandings surrounding his stage name and the nationality controversy that arose during his service in the Marine Corps to the behind-the-scenes story of his marriage to his wife.
MBC variety show 'Radio Star,' which will air on the 7th, is presented as a "Happy new abs!" special featuring Kim Dong-hyun, Kwanghee, Don, and Amotti.
Amotti, a former CrossFit athlete, established himself as Korea's representative physical star by winning season 2 of Netflix's 'Physical: 100' and then reaching the top of 'Physical Asia.'
First, he clarifies the controversy surrounding his stage name 'Amotti.' He calmly addresses the misunderstandings and questions that followed his name becoming known, and honestly reveals the process of how he came to use this stage name, opening the door to the talk. He also naturally brings up the love story with his wife, whom he met at the gym, drawing the MCs' interest.
Amotti surprises the studio by revealing a twice-a-day exercise routine he has maintained since his CrossFit athlete days. He says he completes both strength and aerobic training in a single day, explains the background that made this lifestyle possible, and shares the rules he set for himself to maintain the routine, showing the qualities befitting a representative of "Physical."
He also recalls a time when it was uncertain whether he could continue exercising after a past traffic accident. He calmly describes the process he went through to rebuild his body and conveys the mindset that carried him to his current position. He also personally addresses the nationality controversy that arose during his Marine Corps service, and even reveals past photos that sparked the misunderstanding, causing a stir on set and bringing laughter.
One of the highlights of the broadcast is the chemistry with Kim Dong-hyun, who served as team captain with him on 'Physical Asia.' Recalling the time he spent with Kim Dong-hyun, Amotti continues a roller-coaster talk that moves between revelations and heartwarming stories. In particular, an impromptu arm-wrestling match ignites everyone's competitive spirit and turns the studio into an Asura: The City of Madness, and he raises curiosity by saying he will demonstrate Amotti-style training methods to Kwanghee and Don, who are known in the entertainment industry as "paper dolls."
Finally, Amotti reveals the marriage behind-the-scenes story that he proposed to his wife immediately on the day he received the 300 million won prize for winning season 2 of 'Physical: 100.' He candidly shares the feelings that made him decide to propose, changing the mood. It will air on Wednesday the 7th at 10:30 p.m.
