During the workout, Lee Chang-seop asked Jang Mi-ran, “How many kg do you do for the three major exercises?” In response, Jang Mi-ran said, “I did the back squat with 275kg, the deadlift with 245kg, and I didn’t do the bench press well, but I did the military press, but I lifted 105kg.” When everyone was surprised by the fact that she weighed 625 kg in total, Jang Mi-ran smiled and said, “I am also surprised when I see pictures of myself as a player.” When asked about restaurants near Yongin University, Jang Mi-ran burst out laughing, saying, “There are too many.”
