MONSTA X’s Shownu flaunts muscular physique and leadership on ‘Idol Festa Attack’.
MONSTA X member Shownu stole the spotlight with his chiseled physique and strength on the September 2 KST broadcast of Mnet’s variety show ‘Idol Festa Attack: Nationwide Sparkle Tour’.
In the latest episode, MONSTA X traveled to Gongju, Chungcheongnam-do, as part of the show’s regional tour. Hosted by DinDin, the episode featured a 10th anniversary quiz segment tailored for the powerful image of the group often dubbed as “beast idols.”
To match MONSTA X’s athleticism, the production team even prepared special band microphones for the quiz. However, after the members breezed through the questions, DinDin raised the difficulty level by attaching the microphone to a 20kg dumbbell.
While some members hesitated, Shownu boldly rose to the challenge. Unlike Hyungwon, who admitted, “That’s impossible for me,” Shownu lifted the heavy dumbbell with one hand, showcasing his massive forearms and physical prowess. DinDin exclaimed, “Look at those forearms!” as Shownu proudly answered the next question: the fan chant for their 2019 song "Follow".
Maintaining his cool and strength, Shownu correctly shouted, “Let’s be together forever”, affirming his role as MONSTA X’s dependable leader.
