tvN ‘Iron Girls 2’ continues its extreme challenge by boarding the boxing hell train.

‘Iron Girls 2’, which will be first broadcast on July 11th, is a story of Yui, Park Joo-hyun, Seol In-ah, who achieved their goal of completing the triathlon last season and became ironmen, and new member Geum Sae-rok’s challenge to become a boxing champion filled with blood, sweat, and tears.

The first teaser released contains the moment in Season 1 when the members gained attention by completing the Ironman triathlon with their ‘iron-like mindset’.At the time, the members overcame their individual fears and limitations, such as a fear of water and a fear of bicycles, to spread positive energy, proving their explosive popularity by recording over 150 million cumulative views of Season 1 online videos.


In season 2, the ‘iron mindset’ is inherited through boxing.120 days before the boxing competition, Yui, Geum Sae-rok, Park Joo-hyun, and Seol In-ah begin their reckless challenge.It is said that Yui expressed her fear by saying, “Who can I hit?” in a 1-on-1 match where she must knock down her opponent with only her fists in a square ring.

Especially since the goal of this season is survival, boxing is a sport that requires a lot of physical strength to strike and endure an opponent, so a solid basic physical strength is essential.The members who dream of becoming boxing champions go through the most hellish training ever, such as climbing a ski jump and flipping over an oversized tire, and the scene where Park Joo-hyun cries, saying, “Boxing is scary,” foreshadows the beginning of a legendary difficult path.


Above all, the moment when ‘athletic genius’ Seol In-ah hits the face of Kim Dong-hyun, the leader of ‘Iron Girls 2’ and a former mixed martial arts fighter, head-on is captured, stimulating dopamine.Attention is focused on the activities of the members who will grow together with Kim Dong-hyun, a martial arts expert, without giving up even when things are difficult.

Meanwhile, the poster for ‘Iron Girls 2’ shows the determination of Yui, Geum Sae-rok, Park Joo-hyun, and Seol In-ah as they compete against their opponents and run around the ring, as well as the charisma of Kim Dong-hyun who passionately supports the members.The members ‘appearances as they are reborn as boxers with an’ iron mindset ‘are arousing interest.


‘ Iron Girls 2’ will first air at 8:40 PM on July 11th.
