[Sportschosun reporter Lee Woo-joo] Amotti drew attention on KBS 2TV's "Boss in the Mirror" after revealing that his cumulative prize money from physical survival show victories alone has reached 460 million won.

KBS 2TV's "Boss in the Mirror," directed by Choi Seung-hee, is a self-reflection program in which bosses in Korea try to create a workplace that people enjoy working in. As of the previous episode, it continued its strong run by ranking No. 1 in its time slot for 211 consecutive weeks in entertainment programming, according to Nielsen Korea.

In the episode of "Boss in the Mirror" airing on the 28th, Amotti, the winner of physical survival competitions, will appear and capture viewers' attention. He is a self-proclaimed athletic genius who won back-to-back titles in the globally popular sports survival shows "Physical: 100 Season 2" and "Physical: Asia." He revealed that the prize money was 300 million won for "Physical: 100 Season 2" and 160 million won for the other series, adding, "My total prize money so far is 460 million won." He also said, "I married my wife with the prize money," sharing a sweet love story with her.

Meanwhile, in this episode, Amotti will support Um Ji-in and Kim Jin-woong as they take on HYROX, an eight-event fitness race. Having won the HYROX competition in London, United Kingdom, in March, he plans to share his world-class know-how with the two without holding anything back. Before the coaching begins, Amotti boldly takes off his shirt and reveals his chiseled abs, instantly turning the gym into a frenzy. Seeing his bronze muscles up close, which looked almost computer-generated, Um Ji-in lets out a dolphin-like scream and cannot hide her spontaneous reaction, saying, "Even Amotti's forearm muscles, the kind you use to grill meat, look cool." Kim Sook also could not take her eyes off the screen, exclaiming, "Those are all muscles," and reportedly said, "Aren't those the eight-pack men dream of having?"

Viewers can catch the lively coaching session between Amotti, a physical survival champion, and sports star Um Ji-in in the full broadcast of "Boss in the Mirror."

KBS 2TV's "Boss in the Mirror" airs every Sunday at 4:40 p.m.
