Who were the two MVPs of the first athletic special?

On April 30th, KBS kicked off their first ever national idol athletics competition on their reformatted “100 Points out of 100” variety show.

48 idols came together for this and were divided into districts for a total of 5 categories. Districts included Seoul, Kyungki, Junra/Jeju Island, Kyungsang-do, and ‘international.’ Categories included chin-ups, push-ups, sit-ups, 50m sprint, 400m relay race, and 200m in-line skating.

MBLAQ’s Lee Joon won the title of MVP by placing first over B2ST’s Yoseob in the 200m in-line skating race. He also recorded 75 sit-ups in a minute, taking home gold overall.

SISTAR’s Bora won the title of MVP for in the women’s match by recording a minute in chin-ups and placing first in the 50m race. Although she suffered an injury, she made a clear mark as the best ‘athletic idol’ amongst her peers.

Junra/Jeju Island team took home three gold medals, a silver medal, and two bronze medals, placing first overall.

Viewers commented, “I liked how they divided the idols into districts”, “The format needs a bit of changing”, “I hope they come up with a more variety of matches”, and “Please don’t let it get boring! Today was really fun.”

The preview for the next episode included footage of additional categories of arm wrestling and flexibility tests. Check out the episode below!
