On October 8, VIXX’s Leo shared some exciting news with fans through his Instagram account. He wrote, “I’m finally saying this~ I [have been selected] to run as a torchbearer during the PyeongChang 2018 Olympic Torch Relay. I, Leo, will also try my best while running with Powerade.”

Previously back in September, fellow VIXX member N revealed that he will also be running as a torchbearer.

The torch is set to be carried by 7,500 torchbearers in total. Other torchbearers include 2AM’s Jeong Jinwoon, Jinusean’s Sean, soccer athletes Cha Bum Kun and Cha Du Ri, fencer Park Sang Young, marathon runner Lee Bong Ju, and photographer Cho Sae Hon.
