In ‘My Ugly Duckling’, the challenge of national representative Lee Yong-dae and the weakest duo Kim Jun-ho X Lee Sang-min in the ‘Osaka Buffet Marathon’ is revealed.
During a recent recording of the SBS entertainment program ‘My Ugly Duckling’, Lee Sang-min, Kim Jun-ho, and Lee Yong-dae drew attention by challenging the full course of the ‘Osaka Marathon’. Unlike a regular marathon, it was revealed that there is a ‘buffet zone’ where participants can eat 25 different foods after reaching 32km, which amazed everyone in the studio.
To prepare for the marathon challenge, Lee Sang-min and Kim Jun-ho lost 8kg and 3kg respectively, expressing their determination by saying, “Even if we can’t finish, we will run to the ‘buffet zone’.” However, when the rule was revealed that they would be disqualified if they did not pass each section within the designated time limit, everyone in the studio burst into laughter, predicting that “it would be a miracle if the two could even pass 5km.”
As the marathon officially began, ‘poor stamina’ Kim Jun-ho immediately faced trials. With worsening weather conditions including snowfall, Kim Jun-ho found himself in danger of dropping out, and to make matters worse, he also suffered from cramps in his feet. Ultimately, unable to avoid being last among 34,000 participants, his mother Ji-min exclaimed, “I can’t watch this,” closing her eyes and turning the studio into a sea of laughter. It remains to be seen whether Kim Jun-ho can escape being last and pass the section within the time limit.
Meanwhile, when Lee Yong-dae mentioned that it was his first marathon challenge, MC Shin Dong-yeob expressed concern, saying, “No matter how much of a national representative you are, finishing on your first attempt is not easy.” As he seemed to reach his limit just before the ‘buffet zone’, staggering with dizziness and complaining of knee pain, Yong-dae’s mother could not hide her worried expression. However, just as he was about to give up, everyone was shocked by the appearance of a mysterious man who shouted, “Yong-dae!” The identity of this person will be revealed in the broadcast.
The challenging journey of the ‘Divorced Trio’ Lee Sang-min, Kim Jun-ho, and Lee Yong-dae in the ‘Osaka Marathon’ can be seen on ‘My Ugly Duckling’, airing on the 23rd at 8:55 PM.
