AKP STAFF




Netflix has recently announced that they will be producing the second season of the Korean variety show 'Physical: 100', which features 100 individuals with extreme physical abilities competing to become the last person standing.

Since its release in January, 'Physical: 100' has garnered a considerable following, reaching number one on the 'Netflix Global Top 10 TV Shows' list. It has also entered the top 10 list in 82 countries and accumulated a total viewing time of close to 200 million hours in just six weeks.

In season two, the show will continue to showcase people with exceptional physical abilities from various fields, including athletes, bodybuilders, and military personnel. Regardless of age, gender, nationality, or weight class, 100 people with the strongest physicals will return to compete in even more challenging trials.

PD Jang Ho Gi, the show's producer, expressed gratitude for the international support for 'Physical: 100' but also promised significant changes in the upcoming season. He stated, "We have taken into account the feedback from viewers and experts and will be creating a new world for season two, leaving only one key goal, 'Exploring the most perfect physical.' We will be introducing a larger space and more powerful quests, inviting performers who were not able to participate in the previous season."
                                  
The show has garnered attention for its unique concept, but it also offers insight into the physical capabilities of the human body. Viewers can expect to see more thrilling trials and challenges that will test the limits of the contestants.

I hope they even it out a bit better next time, the first series fell at the final hurdle as far as I'm concerned. They managed, right up until the final, to ensure that it wasn't purely physical size and strength that would ensure a win, which is why there were a couple of lighter people in the final, who excelled in agility and used their brains as well as being physically strong.

.

Then the final was all about brute strength and weight. It was a total letdown, and I switched it off, because there was no way the person I was rooting for could win it, he was too light. I still don't know who won.
