Lee Jun-young and Jung Eun-ji Face Off in Hilarious Showdown on ’24-hour Health Club’

Fans of K-dramas are in for a treat this week as KBS 2TV’s hit Wednesday-Thursday series ’24-hour Health Club’ returns with episode 5, airing on June 14 at 9:50 PM KST. Things are about to get intense — and hilariously dramatic — as Lee Jun-young and Jung Eun-ji turn up the emotional heat.

Episode 5 sets up a confrontation between gym director Do Hyun-jung (played by Lee Jun-young) and determined member Im Mi-ran (played by Jung Eun-ji). What starts as a seemingly harmless exchange escalates into an all-out ego battle — culminating in Mi-ran grabbing Hyun-jung by the collar. Yes, you read that right.

Previously, the duo rekindled their workout partnership, with Mi-ran adapting surprisingly well to the grueling training routine imposed by health fanatic Hyun-jung. However, the gym’s peace is shattered when a mysterious child appears and calls Hyun-jung “dad.” Cue chaos, confusion, and curious speculations about the child’s true identity and what turmoil it might bring to the gym.

Newly released stills from the episode tease the upcoming showdown, featuring the two locked in a comic yet intense face-off. The drama doesn’t stop there. Hyun-jung finds himself unexpectedly burdened with childcare responsibilities, while Mi-ran struggles with heightened irritability after cutting flour from her diet.

Why did food-loving Mi-ran suddenly decide to eliminate flour from her menu? And what led to Hyun-jung taking on this surprise fatherly role? Viewers can expect answers — with a generous side of comedic tension.

The tension boils over when the duo, now clashing as gym director and member, launch into a no-holds-barred showdown, each unwilling to back down. Their body-language speaks volumes, with arms crossed and fierce glares exchanged, setting up a scene that’s as funny as it is dramatic.

One careless comment from Hyun-jung becomes the final straw, triggering Mi-ran’s outburst and her swift grab at Hyun-jung’s collar, shaking him — and viewers — into laughing disbelief. The episode promises the ultimate back-and-forth chemistry between these “tiki-taka” masters.

Don’t miss the hilarious collision of pride, parenting, and personality in episode 5 of ’24-hour Health Club’. Tune in this Wednesday night for a drama that punches hard on humor and heart.
