MBC‘s Special Lunar New Year Idol Star Athletics Championship is an annual event that showcases athleticism, or the hilarious lack thereof, and sportsmanship among idols. This year’s categories include track and field, bowling, archery, rhythmic gymnastics, and aerobics.
The MCs for the event are Jun Hyun Moo, Super Junior‘s Leeteuk, and Apink‘s Bomi, along with INFINITE‘s Sungkyu and EXID‘s Hani as special MCs for bowling.
