Lee Jun-young once again brought laughter to the living room theater with a unique appearance.

He showed off his presence in the role of Do Hyeon-joong, a world-class bodybuilder who suddenly takes over an old gym in the new KBS 2TV Wednesday-Thursday drama ‘24 Hour Gym’, which first aired on the 30th of last month.

‘24-Hour Gym’ is a comical romantic drama about the energetic and tenacious gym manager Do Hyeon-joong who unconventionally corrects the lives of the members who are full of worries.

On this day’s broadcast, Hyun-joong, who was handing out flyers to pedestrians on the street, encountered Miran(Jung Eun-ji)for the first time, who was crying and clinging to her boyfriend.

Then, Hyun-joong approached Miran, who was left alone and covered in tears, and handed her a gym flyer, saying, “You won’t regret it,” making everyone laugh.

Hyun-joong, who bumped into Miran who had come to the gym, hugged her waist as she almost fell over, and whispered, “162.7cm and 62.8kg” with a serious look in his eyes, unlike his romantic pose.

As Miran tries to run away saying, “I thought it was a real club,” he continues to laugh evilly saying, “It’s a club.It’s a hellish club for the provinces,” causing everyone to burst into laughter.

Lee Jun-young is continuing his path as a ‘popular actor’ by showing his ceaseless acting transformation through diverse characters in various works such as Netflix’s ‘Melo Movie’, ‘Foolish’, and ‘Weak Hero Class 2’ this year.

He has proven once again his limitless spectrum by perfectly pulling off even the most witty comedic acting in ‘24-Hour Gym’, and expectations are rising for the stories he will tell in the future.
