Choi Beomgyu is a member of the Kpop boy group Tomorrow X Together (TXT). Last year, Beomgyu was able to have his own variety show, Workout Zzang. It is a fitness variety web series content on Mdromeda Studio. The show is about a guy who hates working out and is forced to do sports by professionals. Currently, the variety show has two seasons already with six episodes each.
Let’s look back on the funny moments of Choi Beomgyu on his own variety show.
Princess Treatment Beomgyu
This scene is from the first episode of Season 1 Workout Zzang with Kim Hye Seon, known as the unstoppable jumping machine as his instructor. The first workout is about jumping on a trampoline which could help in improving cardiovascular health, burning calories, and strengthening core muscles.
Kim Hye Seon matches that energy of Beomgyu and the fans even said on X app that Beomgyu finds someone who matches his energy.

In the middle of the workout, Beomgyu felt so tired from jumping on the trampoline nonstop. When the music stops and the instructor leaves on the trampoline, Beomgyu takes the opportunity to escape from the room. The instructor noticed and immediately ran after him outside. She carried him in a bridal style going back to the room. The fans think that this particular scene in the episode is so funny.
“You’re A Guest, I’m A Leader”
This scene is from the second episode of Workout Zzang season 1. The second episode is about mountain hiking with his guest, Julien Kang. When they reached Achasan, which is their original destination, Beomgyu already wanted to go down the hill. But Julien Kang wanted to keep going in Yongma mountain, a new summit connected to Achasan.
Beomgyu said that he probably cannot go. They calmed down and Julien suddenly said that he is the leader. Right after that, Beomgyu said, “No. You’re a guest, I’m a leader.” They decided to just keep going for a while and decide again. From there Beomgyu started to sneak and hide from Julien attempting to go down.
Beomgyu also learned about “I wasn’t born yesterday” in this episode which means “I am not stupid” from Julien Kang. This became one of his iconic lines and he used it up until this day. This episode ended with Beomgyu running away from Julien even after he lost from their rock-paper-scissors game. The winner has to decide whether to keep going or go down. But Beomgyu lost and he ran away.
Thursday Child Has Far To Go
This scene is from Episode 4 of Season 1 Workout Zzang. The staff planned this episode inspired by the 10 000 kcal Challenge on YouTube but they lowered it. Beomgyu can’t leave before reaching 1000 kcal. But the room has lots of food on the table and there is workout equipment in the house. Beomgyu starting kcal is 1000 and everytime he eats, the staff will add it on his kcal. He needs to workout so that the kcal goes down again to 1000. The more he eats food, the more the calories increase.
From the recent episodes of Workout Zzang, Beomgyu keeps running away and there are many comments saying that its title should be “Running Away Zzang” not “Workout Zzang.” Though it is funny, the staff thinks of something to do with this in which they come up with this episode. The plan is to make Beomgyu workout until the end without leaving.
Beomgyu is doing well in the challenge but the staff ordered a box of chicken. Beomgyu asks if the staff trust him. There, he was planning to run away again. In the end, Beomgyu ran away with the box of chicken in his hand jumping over the fence of the house.
Running Away…in pain
This scene is from Episode 5 of Workout Zzang Season 2. In this episode, Beomgyu will be training Taekwondo with Na Tae Joo, an idol of trot world and former national Taekwondo poomsae representative athlete. This episode is funny because Beomgyu is learning Taekwondo as a beginner and Na Tae Joo is a pro. Beomgyu trying the Taekwondo stunts and chants is very different from the player.
In this episode, we saw another clip of Beomgyu running away but for a different reason. Beomgu ran away because he was in pain right after kicking the plates that didn’t crack. Beomgyu’s bones cracked instead. He ran and massaged his hurt foot. The scene is just so funny with a little bit of concern because that might hurt from the looks of it.
Aftewards, Na Tae Joo suggested plates that could possibly be cracked by an average Korean male in which Beomgyu tried with pride. He punched the plates and the plates cracked. He then ran off again smiling proudly with what he had done.
Kiss Time
This scene is from the first episode of Workout Zzang Season 2. This is a baseball episode. In this episode Workout Zzang Beomgyu is challenged for throwing the first pitch for SSG Landers at SSG vs KT match. Beomgyu has no experience in baseball so he learned it from the basics. He learned how to throw from Yoo Hee Kwan, known as the Doosan Bears one-club man, a legendary left-handed pitcher who achieved lots of wins in baseball.
Beomgyu and Hee Kwan were caught on the kiss time camera in the middle of the event. Beomgyu covered their faces and acted as if kissing each other. Right after that, he removed the cover and wiped his lips while Hee kwan acted shy.
Beomgyu and Hee Kwan become close together. This scene is funny yet endearing right after watching the long day of Beomgyu learning how to pitch and the actual pitch he did in the baseball field. Beomgyu successfully throws the first pitch even though he’s nervous. In the end, Beomgyu became a victory fairy and SSg Landers won the game.
Beomgyu is funny and it is obvious in his own variety show, Workout Zzang. It is one of the reasons why his show has season 2. He made sure to maximize his energy during filming. Beomgyu said in their 5th Anniversary Idol Human Theater that he has two modes: the idol mode and variety show mode. He had a lot of energy that is not used in his idol mode.
Workout Zzang might have Season 3 soon. There is still no announcement about it but Beomgyu ended the season 2 saying that he will return for Season 3.
