Posted by Susan-Han Wednesday, July 3, 2019

According to an exclusive report on July 4, MBC's representative holiday variety program, the 'Idol Star Athletics Championship', will begin filming this August!

This will mark the 18th ever 'Idol Star Athletics Championship', as the program celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. Filming will take place some time in mid-August with the addition and subtraction of various categories - e-sports will be added as a new genre, while rhythmic gymnastics will no longer be a part of the competition. 

Meanwhile, this year's Chuseok holidays span from September 12-14 in Korea.

esports is good in a sense. there is no chance of idols getting injured playing it. some fans are upset if their idols get injured in the ISAC and it affects their comeback and some may not even take part in the comeback due to leg injury from ISAC. but playing PUBG for example is fine. lol
