Lee Jun-young and Jeong Eun-ji are having a love quarrel.
In the 11th episode of the KBS2 Wednesday-Thursday drama ’Pump Up the Healthy Love' (written by Kim Ji-soo, directed by Park Jun-soo and Choi Yeon-soo, produced by CJ ENM STUDIOS, Bonfactory, Monster Union, KeyEast), which airs at 9:50 p.m. on the 4th, the shocked health enthusiast Director Do Hyun-joong (Lee Jun-young) makes a final choice amid the first muscle loss he has ever experienced.
Earlier, Hyun-joong fell into a deep sense of loss after the death of Kang-sol (Park Hae-in) and gave up exercising, but he returned to his directorship fueled by the support of the gym family, including Im Mi-ran (Jeong Eun-ji). After that, Hyun-joong, who could not give up on himself, became close to Mi-ran, who comforted him warmly, and the ending where the two hid together in an alley away from the members tickled viewers' hearts.
On the broadcast day, the 4th, a still cut of Hyun-joong and Mi-ran engaged in conversation in the gym was released amid a subtle atmosphere. In this 11th episode, Hyun-joong, who has never exceeded a body fat percentage in double digits throughout his life, falls into shock as he faces an unprecedented situation of exceeding 10%. The still shows Hyun-joong hugging his arms in denial of reality, which brought laughter.
Hyun-joong, whose pride as a director has collapsed, identifies ‘tteokbokki’ as the main cause of the increase in body fat percentage. Consequently, he decides to distance himself from Mi-ran, the ‘tteokbokki mate,’ and begins to avoid her. However, it’s not easy to resist the temptation of tteokbokki. Given the entangled emotions, it raises curiosity about whether he can truly cut ties with both tteokbokki and Mi-ran.
Meanwhile, Mi-ran, who has no idea about Hyun-joong’s inner thoughts, feels betrayal and hurt when she perceives a change in his attitude at the moment she thought they had become closer. Eventually, Mi-ran requests a trainer change, and during a conversation, she is caught touching her forehead in distress, sparking curiosity. Alex (Lee Seung-woo) is also in a state of unease, observing the unexpected situation between the two. The relationship between Hyun-joong and Mi-ran, which they can only face in the gym, is anticipated to reach an exciting conclusion as the main broadcast unfolds, with the possibility of Hyun-joong’s denial period coming to light.
The 11th episode of the KBS2 Wednesday-Thursday drama ’Pump Up the Healthy Love' will air at 9:50 p.m. on the 4th.
