Lee Jun-young flexes for Jung Eun-ji at 24-Hour Health Club

The first script reading stills have dropped for KBS’s sports rom-com 24-Hour Health Club, where muscles meet love for Lee Jun-young (When Life Gives You Tangerines) and Jung Eun-ji (Miss Night and Day) in our story’s health and wellness journey.
Our hero is said health club’s director, a fitness nut named Do Hyun-joong (Lee Jun-young) who works double as a personal trainer. But with his hyper-focused mind only obsessed with working out, he habitually uses the word “geun” (meaning “muscle” in Korean) even in regular conversations, greeting others by saying, “Geun morning” and “Geun bye.”
Enter new gym member Lee Mi-ran (Jung Eun-ji), an assistant manager at a travel agency, working for the planning and development team. Although both a foodie and a hopeless romantic, Mi-ran resolves to make a complete life change by signing up at the health club after recently getting dumped.
In supportive roles, Lee Mi-do (Jeongnyeon – The Star is Born) takes on the part of Rosa, a senior staff member at the gym who is wary of Hyun-joong’s leadership. In contrast, the gym mascot and cutie Alex – played by Lee Seung-woo (Face Me) – follows Hyun-joong like a puppy and idolizes him as if it’s a religion.
Rounding out the world with both the gym staff and gym members, the cast lineup also includes Park Sung-yeon (Missing Crown Prince) and Lee Ji-hye (Dreaming of a Freaking Fairy Tale), as well as Hong Yoon-hwa (Comedy Big League) and Kim Kwon (Destined With You) among others.
Production for the series has PD Park Joon-soo (Gaus Electronics) and PD Choi Yeon-soo co-directing, along with scripts penned by Kim Ji-soo (Birthcare Center). Slated to premiere April 30 next month, KBS’s 24-Hour Health Club will be following Villains Everywhere in the Wednesday-Thursday slot.
