A frail guy who once struggled to lift a 1.5kg dumbbell, but through hard work and discipline, he transformed into a champion. Now, instead of standing on stage, he’s training gym newbies—but running a business turns out to be harder than lifting weights!

Jung Eun Ji takes on the role of Lee Mi Ran, a woman who joins the gym after a painful breakup.

To truly bring her character to life, Jung Eun Ji even gained weight for the role, proving her dedication to making Mi Ran’s transformation feel real!

• Imi Do plays Rosa, a no-nonsense trainer who isn’t thrilled about her new boss.
• Lee Seung Woo is Alex, a baby-faced muscle man (베이근남) who idolizes Hyun Joong.
