It’s official: “Physical: 100” is returning for a second season!
On June 14, Netflix officially announced that its competitive reality show “Physical: 100” had been renewed for Season 2.
“Physical: 100” is a survival show where 100 contestants in top physical shape compete in various challenges until only one remains to win the prize money and claim the honor as the one with the best body and the strongest physical.
Since its release back in January 2022, the show has won the top spot in Netflix’s Top 10 Shows (Non-English), a first for a Korean variety show, and earned a place in the Top 10 lists in 82 different countries, proving its worldwide popularity.
Season 2 of “Physical: 100” will once again return with 100 competitors, all known for their strong physiques, regardless of age, gender, nationality, and weight class.
Producing director (PD) Jang Ho Gi, who is returning as director for the new season, remarked, “Thankfully, ‘Physical: 100’ became a hot topic and was loved by people all over the world. Our production team is listening to everything that viewers said was good or lacking [from the first season]. We decided to make everything brand new in Season 2, except for the one key line from Season 1: ‘Searching for the most perfect physical.’ I think this is the only way to repay the viewers who have kindly given the show lots of love.”
PD Jang Ho Gi added, “We are creating an entirely new world by crafting a larger set than Season 1, which was the size of two soccer fields. This time, I think we will be able to bring more formidable contestants that weren’t able to join us in the previous season. We are also working with numerous experts to design stronger and more intense quests than Season 1.”
Finally, the PD teased, “Rather than making vague promises to produce a more fun and better season, we [promise] to come back with an evolved and dramatic transformation in every aspect of the show.”
