Jo Min Ji, who wowed viewers with her beauty and intelligence on Netflix’s Single’s Inferno 3, is stepping into a whole new role—as a sports announcer!

On February 21, MBC Plus announced that Jo Min Ji has officially joined MBC Sports Plus and will be hosting the studio segments of M-Sports in Camp 2025, a special KBO League spring camp coverage program starting February 22.

Jo Min Ji first gained attention as the Miss Korea runner-up in 2021 before making waves on Single’s Inferno 3 as the “female shark.” Since then, she has continued working as an announcer, and now, she’s taking on a new challenge in the sports world!

She won’t be alone—her co-host, Im Chae Won, is also a fresh face in the industry. Im Chae Won, who previously won Miss Glorize Korea and trained as an idol, will bring her own charm to the show. MBC Plus shared, “With these two new announcers, M-Sports in Camp 2025 will have a unique and refreshing atmosphere compared to traditional sports programs.”

M-Sports in Camp 2025 will air live every evening for 10 days, from February 22 to March 3. The show will deliver the latest updates on KBO League teams currently training in Okinawa and Miyazaki, Japan, with in-depth coverage of training sessions, key player interviews, and team performance analysis.

Four of the Samsung Lions’ practice games will also be broadcast live at 1 PM, followed by highlights and expert analysis. Field reporters Jung Byung Moon, Kim Soo Hwan, and Kim Hee Yeon will provide on-site updates, while top commentators like Lee Sang Hoon, Jung Min Chul, Park Jae Hong, Kim Sun Woo, and Heo Do Hwan will break down the action.

The MBC Sports Plus production team expressed their excitement, saying, “To make this season’s spring camp coverage even more immersive, we’ve assembled the best commentators and production staff for on-site reporting. With rookie announcers Jo Min Ji and Im Chae Won leading the studio, we’re looking forward to bringing a fresh and dynamic broadcast.”

With this big career shift, fans are excited to see Jo Min Ji shine in her new role as a sports announcer.

BTS’s Jimin is unstoppable! His song Who has officially earned a Gold certification in Spain, making him the first and only K-pop solo artist to achieve this milestone twice.

On February 12, Spain’s PROMUSICAE, a member of the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI), awarded Who the prestigious Oro (Gold) certification. To receive this honor, a song must sell 30,000 units, including streaming equivalents.

Jimin previously earned his first Gold certification in Spain with Like Crazy in July 2024. Now, with Who also achieving Gold status, he has cemented his place as a true global superstar, proving his incredible popularity not just in Korea but all around the world.

His impact in Spain has been undeniable! Who made history by ranking No. 96 on Apple Music’s Top 100: Spain year-end chart, becoming the first and only song by an Asian artist to enter the list.

This marks the first time a K-pop song has ever appeared on Spain’s annual Apple Music chart.

The song’s performance on Spotify Spain has also been nothing short of legendary. Who has stayed on the Spotify Spain Weekly Top Songs chart for 30 consecutive weeks, making it the longest-charting K-pop solo song in the country.

It has also remained on the Daily Top Songs chart for an incredible 203 days, continuously extending its record.

Jimin’s influence in Spain continues to grow, and fans can’t wait to see what record he breaks next.
