💫 Legends Still in the Game
Down the list but never out of hearts: figure skating icon Kim Yuna (5.4%) and baseball’s beloved Lee Junghoo (4.9%) are hanging in strong thanks to loyal fanbases. Volleyball queen Kim Yeonkoung (3.4%) and golf talent Yoon Ina (2.4%) also remain in striking distance with time still left on the clock. This mix of seasoned legends and current stars is giving fans the ultimate sports fantasy draft.
📈 What’s Next?
Unless something dramatic happens, Heo Woong seems to have the top spot locked down. But the mid-tier is a battlefield. With fan votes still rolling in, rallying from major sports communities—especially football, badminton, and baseball—could seriously shake things up before the final whistle blows.
So, who’s your MVP? Better get those votes in before the buzzer sounds.
