In the upcoming 5th episode of KBS 2TV's Monday-Tuesday drama My Lovely Boxer (written by Kim Min Joo, directed by Choi Sang Yeol), the first match that will determine the lives of agent Kim Tae Young (played by Lee Sang Yeop) and the boxing prodigy Lee Kwon Sook (played by Kim So Hye) unfolds. After a three-year hiatus from the boxing ring, the attention is focused on whether Lee Kwon Sook, who has returned to the boxing world, can triumph over the "boxing troublemaker" Jo Ah Ra (played by Do Eun Ha).

In the last episode, Lee Kwon Sook was deeply tense as her match against Jo Ah Ra approached. Knowing all about her jinx through Lee Kwon Sook's documentary, Kim Tae Young grabbed her hand tightly and offered her silent consolation, just like what Lee Cheol Yong (played by Kim Hyung Mook) had done. Encouraged by Kim Tae Young's comfort, Lee Kwon Sook exclaimed that she would win today, even though she was scared of boxing, and headed to the ring. In particular, Kim Tae Young gently held Lee Kwon Sook's hand and gazed at her affectionately.

Meanwhile, the stills released on the 3rd depict the match between "genius boxer" Lee Kwon Sook, who returns to the ring after three years, and "boxing hipster" Jo Ah Ra, in a square ring filled with excitement and fervor from the audience.

In the tense atmosphere, Lee Kwon Sook watches anxiously while Jo Ah Ra, with a combat-ready demeanor and a fierce look, heightens the tension with her determined focus on the timing of her attack.

Jo Ah Ra, who is in high spirits, pushes Lee Kwon Sook into a corner while Lee Kwon Sook guards against Jo Ah Ra's punches with her whole body, patiently waiting for the right moment.

Kim Tae Young watches Lee Kwon Sook from below the ring with a worried look, and Kim Oh Bok (played by Park Ji Hwan) seems astounded, as if he's witnessing an unbelievable sight.

The My Lovely Boxer production team stated, "The 5th episode will depict the first match between Lee Kwon Sook and Kim Tae Young. Actors Kim So Hye and Do Eun Ha devoted themselves to intense boxing training for several months to prepare for this scene. We will deliver realism like watching a boxing match and an exciting, suspense-filled atmosphere. Please look forward to it with high expectations and interest." The episode airs on September 4th at 9:45 PM KST.
