Bodybuilder Han Jae-hyuk is entering a long season race once again.
Although he achieved outstanding results—taking 1st place at Olympia Japan held last November and 2nd place at the Taiwan Asian Championship in December—he unfortunately fell one step short of his goal of earning a pro card.
However, the disappointment soon became new motivation.
Han Jae-hyuk is kicking off the season again, determined to make it onto the pro stage this time.
This season is by no means short.
Starting with Korea AGP in May,
followed by Thailand Pro Qualifier in June,
Taiwan Pro Qualifier in July,
Asian Championship in August,
and the Amateur Olympia in September—
a long journey spanning about five months is scheduled.
Competing in consecutive international stages is a major physical and mental burden, but Han Jae-hyuk is instead treating it as an opportunity for growth. His goal is to push his limits and elevate his degree of completion at every contest, ultimately earning his rightful place on the pro stage.
“A missed opportunity can be created again.”
His upcoming season is projected to be not merely another attempt, but a journey of self-validation.
Stepping back onto the stage with an unyielding spirit that refuses to give up until the very end, Han Jae-hyuk leaves fans eagerly anticipating the outcome of his 2026 season.
