Ma Dong-seok X Kim Jong-kook X Dex, 3 Key Points to Watch in 'I Am Boxer' Revealed Ahead of Tomorrow's Release on the 22nd!

Right tomorrow, starting November 22nd (Saturday), the massive boxing survival show 〈I Am Boxer〉​ will be released to global viewers on Disney+ and is designed by Ma Dong-seok, a global action star and boxing gym director with 30 years of experience, to revive K-Boxing.

The first key point to watch in 〈I Am Boxer〉​ is the performance of the strongest MC lineup consisting of MASTER Ma Dong-seok, MC Kim Jong-kook, and Dex. First, Ma Dong-seok, who started boxing in middle school and is currently a coach guiding actors and athletes, serves as the honorary vice president of the Korea Boxing Association and works as a boxing promoter. He is genuinely passionate about boxing and has conceptualized the format of 〈I Am Boxer〉, overseeing everything from the size of the ring to the weight of the gloves and the rules of the game, designing a dramatic competition that is more dramatic than a drama itself. PD Lee Won-hyung's statement that "when a favorite player appears, discovers a new rookie, or a great match occurs, Ma Dong-seok's expression is truly cinematic" heightens expectations for what this sports survival show filled with Ma Dong-seok's heartfelt love for boxing will look like. Additionally, Kim Jong-kook, a representative athlete in the entertainment industry and a boxing enthusiast who has trained in boxing for a long time, and Dex, a UDT veteran with extensive experience in various sports, will serve as MCs. Their different perspectives on the matches in the ring are expected to add to the viewing pleasure and invite global viewers into the world of K-Boxing.

The second key point to watch in 〈I Am Boxer〉​ is the fierce competition among participants with an unprecedented lineup. Ma Dong-seok selected participants after examining various perspectives with experts and production staff, focusing on love for boxing, the will and determination to overcome oneself, and future potential rather than just boxing records, muscular physique, and athletic ability. As a result, participants range from former Eastern Champion Kim Min-wook to 14-time national sports festival champion Kim Dong-hoe, Julien Kang, actor Jang Hyuk, Korea's first UFC light heavyweight fighter Jung Da-woon, and UDT veteran artist Yuk Jun-seo. Celebrities known for their physical prowess in both professional and amateur fields are set to compete, transcending backgrounds, ages, and weight classes to determine the strongest in boxing. In particular, the performances of participants armed with their unique personalities and signature moves, including the legendary professional Kim Min-wook and amateur legend Kim Dong-hoe, as well as Jung Da-woon and Julien Kang, who exude overwhelming force even with the sound of their punches, are expected to draw attention.

The final key point to watch in 〈I Am Boxer〉​ is the diverse missions and competitions that exceed imagination. The spacious gym of over 500 pyeong responsible for the participants' training, along with the unprecedented set of 1000 pyeong created by art director Lee Young-joo, who produced sets for [Physical: 100], [Black and White Chef: Cooking Class War], and the best boxing ring experts in the country, promises unique fun. At the same time, there will be nine rings capable of hosting nine matches, including an aqua ring where participants face off while getting drenched in rain, a cage ring so narrow that it's difficult to step in boxing, a long rectangular ring, and a circular ring. It is expected to showcase spectacular matches that are on a different level from typical boxing matches. In this way, 〈I Am Boxer〉​ will capture the journey of boxers writing an unscripted drama in a space equipped with a massive scale and exceptional details, delivering the thrilling joy and intense emotion of the sport of boxing while opening a new horizon for sports survival shows.

With an overwhelming scale of missions and spectacular elements reminiscent of a Hollywood movie, the massive boxing survival show 〈I Am Boxer〉​ is a stage that Ma Dong-seok, who is more passionate about boxing than anyone, has dreamed of for a long time, and it will be released every Saturday on Disney+ starting tomorrow, November 22nd (Saturday), attracting the attention of many.
