Jeon Hyun-moo, who broadcasted the weightlifting event on the same day, said "It is the first time for sports to be broadcasted." I'm so nervous. It's been such a long time since I've had this tension. I've been an MC for a long time, but casters are a completely different genre.
On the reason for broadcasting weightlifting, Jeon Hyun-moo said, "I have a relationship with Park Hye-jeong. I made an appointment with Park Hye-jung. There was no broadcast of weightlifting originally, but when I went in, I was able to do it, so I'm rooting for it when it goes well together."
