The 2023 Korea AGP Pro is one of five IFBB Pro League events taking place this weekend June 17. Competitors gathered in Gyeonggi State, Korea for a chance at a cash prize, bragging rights, and of course, a Mr. Olympia invitation for later this year.
This year’s Mr. Olympia show takes place over a month earlier than last year’s event. Therefore, competitors have less time to earn qualifications for the biggest contest on the calendar. Moreover, it’s even more difficult to earn a spot on the big stage because the point system has been removed. With that in mind, athletes must win a pro show to qualify.
In the last few years, the Men’s Physique category has grown immensely. A new champion emerged in the division as Erin Banks managed to win his first title at the 2022 Mr. Olympia. Whoever comes out on top this weekend, will have a shot at Banks later this year.
With a promising field of competitors, fans still highlighted a few frontrunners online. One of which was Joseph Lee who has already competed twice this year, having made the top three at the 2023 Wasatch Warrior Pro and second at the Los Angeles Grand Prix. Meanwhile, Jung Hyeon Jo is eager to make a statement this year after taking fifth at the 2022 Monsterzym Pro and seventh at the 2022 Korea Men’s Physique Pro. Lastly, Renyi Xie, who despite only competing once on the pro circuit, has shown great promise. He took second at the 2022 Japan Pro.
