EXO - XIUMIN
On “The gentlemen’s league 4”, XIUMIN shows a fighting spirit worthy of Tottenham.
On July 27, JTBC’s hit sports variety show “The gentlemen’s league 4” will air the conclusion of the second round, followed by a second reinforcement draft. XIUMIN, Han Hyunmin, Cheon Juan, and Shin Woojae will appear as candidates, and fans are already eager to find out which team each one will suit up for.
In this episode, all four coaches and their teams come together in full for the first time in a while, creating an energetic atmosphere for the second draft. The arrival of four talented players from vastly different backgrounds, XIUMIN, nicknamed the “joker of idols”; Han Hyunmin, the “Pogba of Osan Middle School”; Cheon Juan, the most sought-after free agent; and Shin Woojae, a former semi-pro player in Germany, immediately heats up the scene.
The one who immediately grabs attention is, of course, XIUMIN, member of the group EXO. True to his status as a living K-pop legend, his appearance instantly commands the spotlight. Even Coach Park Hang Seo recognizes him, exclaiming, “EXO, that’s the famous group, right?” XIUMIN humorously describes himself: “My playing style is peaceful, but my personality? More like a baseball bat!” He adds that he’s the type to give as good as he gets, revealing a fighting spirit reminiscent of Tottenham behind his gentle appearance.
When it’s time to showcase his skills, XIUMIN surprises everyone with an unusual case of nerves. Despite being unfazed by performing in front of thousands of fans, he seems to feel a special kind of pressure on “The gentlemen’s league 4″ set. The question now is whether he can overcome this stress and show his full potential.
Meanwhile, model Han Hyunmin, who stands at 6’3” (191 cm), impresses with his incredible vertical leap. He goes head-to-head with Lee Yong Woo, known as the “dolphin header”, in an aerial duel to prove his worth. Cheon Juan, the coveted free agent all the coaches are after, wins everyone over with a stunning chip shot in a technical challenge. Finally, Shin Woojae draws on his semi-pro experience in Germany to show off his skills in one-on-one dribbles and impressive ball control.
This episode of “The gentlemen’s league 4″ will air tonight (the 27th) at 7:10 PM KST.
