[theqoo] [EXCLUSIVE] 'IAC' IMPRESSIVE REVIVAL AFTER 2 YEARS... SHOOTING BETWEEN JULY 30TH TO AUGUST 1ST ft. IAC ACCIDENTS
bypannchoaJuly 11, 2022
The 'Idol Star Athletics Championships' has been revived.
According to a report on SportTVNews on the 11th, MBC 'IAC' will be recorded for two days on July 30th and August 1st.
'IAC' is MBC's filial piety program that has been receiving love by viewers every holidays season. It was broadcast every year as a Chuseok special and a Lunar New Year special, but as the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19) intensified, it actually went into a hiatus after the '2020 Lunar New Year Special'.
This time, 'IAC' will be held as a Chuseok special. It will be the first time in about two years since the '2020 Chuseok Special'. At that time, all indoor events were abolished and only sports and agility that could be held outdoors on a small scale were organized.
After about two years of splendid revival, 'IAC' records various sports, including futsal, over two days. The recording on the 30th will be held at the public hall of the MBC new building in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul, and the recording on the 1st of August will be held at the Goyang Gymnasium.
'IAC' is a program where idols compete in various sports events. With the birth of stars every year, expectations are growing as to which idol stars will play a major role this year.

Infinite Nam Woohyun
- The worst injury on IAC was Nam Woohyun

- The program's side said that 'it was a relief it wasn't a big injury' but it was actually serious

- Due to the cartilage ripping, his shoulder barely has any cartilage left
BTS Jin
- During the Chuseok special of 2016's futsal
- He had a nosebleed injury because of a collision with the other team's athlete
- It wasn't a severe injury so it ended with just a scratch
- To not worry the fans, Jin kept smiling and posting selcas on BTS' Twitter
VIXX Leo
- He sustained 2 big injuries during IAC
- The first one was during 2013, he got tackled by the opposite team, sprained his ankle and took 6 weeks to recover
- The 2nd one was in 2016, just like Jin, he was participating in the futsal and injured his nose too
- At that time, VIXX has just made a comeback, but due to his injury, he couldn't participate in music shows' promotions
Seventeen Jeonghan
- During 2018 IAC
- He fell during a race and hurt his hand.
- He was seen standing in front of the fans with bandages on his hands

- He had to wear his cast in overseas promotions
- At that time, Mark's father seeing Jinyound and Jackson's state went on SNS and said 'because of IAC, they could've ended GOT7's career'
- During the early days of IAC in 2013, in the 70m race
- Because she started late in the race, she raised her speed in the last moment and was able to arrive #1 but the acceleration caused a big fall and she wasn't able to get up
- The other members helped her up and brought her back to the waiting room
Shinee Minho
- During 2013 IAC
- Minho participated in the hurdles with great enthusiasm and desire to win
- In one of the hurdles, he fell hard

1. Is this just so that the idols can exchange numbers with each other?
2. Idols put in so many hours of training for this just to appear 5 minutes on broadcast
3. F*ck just thinking back about Woohyun, I'm upset to deathㅜㅜㅜㅠㅠㅠ
4. Just thinking about the fact that Woohyun could've never been able to promote again pisses me offㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
5. They half-ass the way they build those 'gymnasiums' and they don't even have medical teams onsite..
6. Jinㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ He released a selca telling fans to not worry about him, that he was fine and to trust him. Was it at that time?ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
7. They shoot for an entire day and some don't even have a screentime
8. F*ck I f*cking hate seeing my brats get power tripped by MBC f*ckers, every time they come on broadcast, they get power tripped
9. The fans are all boycotting this, do you think we're that easy MBC?
10. My bias even wore a cast because of this... F*ck just seeing this annoys me
