The Idol Star Athletics Championship is one of the most highly anticipated annual events in K-Pop, pitting the hottest stars against each other in everything from archery to wrestling. While the competition is more about fun than athletic prowess, some idols are so talented at their respective sports that fans can’t stop watching them on repeat. Let’s take a look at the top 10 boy group ISAC moments with the most views on YouTube.
In 10th place with 3.05 million views is the head-to-head archery round between MONSTA X and GOT7 at the 2016 Idol Star Athletics Championship.
Both teams did amazingly, but the most impressive scores came from MONSTA X’s Minhyuk. As soon as he stepped up to the plate, he managed to score a staggering three 10-point bullseyes in a row.

In 9th place with 3.23 million views is SEVENTEEN‘s aerobics dance at the 2017 Idol Star Athletics Championship.
SEVENTEEN is known as one of the best dance groups in K-Pop, so it’s no surprise their “Transformer” performance was awesome. DK only joined the group’s performance unit here—Hoshi, Jun, The8, and Dino—because he lost a game of rock-paper-scissors, but you’d never be able to tell.

In 8th place with 3.26 million views is the 2015 Idol Star Athletics Championship men’s basketball tournament.
BTS‘s Suga managed to score two baskets—appropriate considering his stage name comes from the first syllables of “shooting guard”, the basketball position he played in school.
