i feel like it'd be quite difficult to split it 50/50 though. i'm sure there are far less bodybuilding women than men and even then, would they only keep the games women vs. women then men vs men? what about if and when they'd ever eventually mix the two together for team games? narrowing down from 50 each is much different than narrowing down from 100. it is definitely doable, just much different from the direction they intended.

i think the whole point was to give the women a fair chance even if they're biologically at a physical disadvantage. they wanted to prove their strength even if they're at that disadvantage. i'm sure if eunsil got the chance (no thanks to the unfair team matches), she'd excel quite far. i mean, men and women are always competing at the same time in other competition shows like survivor. this show only wanted to have one winner as well. that's not possible if you split the sexes.

but like that's also the thing. i keep seeing people complain for both sides. either they're sexist for splitting the sexes up or they're unfair for keeping them together. it's a lose-lose because either way people are gonna complain about it. but i for sure see what you mean and i do agree it'd make for fairer competition. i just don't think it's what they ultimately intended anyway, given that the show is called physical 100 as well. two winners just sort of diminishes that "final best body" they wanted.

i don't really get it though. some people complain that the men were sexist in the show and often looked down on the women for being physically weaker (such as the ship challenge), and even the women themselves didn't want to be looked down on for being a woman. but then at the same time other people say it was unfair that men and women had to go against each other and that they should've been separated.

it sounds like a lose-lose anyway. if they separated then people would say they were being sexist because women can be just as strong as men, but if they keep them together then it's unfair because men have a physical advantage over women.

LMAO same, let's not think about the logic and let's just think about the good time we had 😌

i'm assuming no based on what i've seen, i haven't read the webtoon yet though

park sodam as death is already gonna be perfect, i know it

i wonder how much money this series will cost for all the a-list actors lol

but i thought whether they died in the borderlands or not determined their fate in the real world and whether their heart would stop? that's why so many others died, such as karube and chota. in that case, why did everyone who pretty much should have died magically end up living in the borderlands and in the real world 😭 i feel as though they still remember each other's presence and have some form of dormant memory, they just can't really fully remember.

omg that's actually so true. i forgot that she wasn't even alive to choose whether she wanted to leave or not. but seriously why did ann die from two shots, but akane is perfectly fine in the borderlands and in the real world?? in the real world she was only missing her leg, but ann was in some emergency surgery lmao. plot armor to the max.

what's wrong with putting a man and a woman in a mud fight? even if they invited, the high profile people did not need to accept either. they chose to come.

jang eun sil really reminds me of a mix between kim dami and seulgi lol

omg same, i kept thinking this reminded me of survivor

i keep laughing at the constant replays

agreed, i don't really understand why they never switched up the teams. it's clear that eun sil was extremely strong and proved that she's an incredible leader, but it's obvious the circumstances were set against them. one team challenge may have been good, but why so many? it's hard to prove how strong you are individually if you have to rely on teammates. i have a quip with the show already for letting injured contestants still participate. at first i thought the injured guy was pretty alright, but when he starting hopping i was like...no way they're letting this man push a 2 ton ship right now. later on there's also a running mission where they let a contestant with A FRACTURED RIB participate. yeah, a FRACTURED RIB.

okay that makes so much more sense LOL. i was like yeah they look incredibly young for their ages but high schoolers may be a bit much...esp compared to the other actors

i actually hope there isn't a s2 cuz as much as i'd like to watch them more, i think s1 ended so well and s2 might only add more unnecessary drama like most s2 romances do (aka some new ml love triangle or misunderstanding or separation)

honestly yeah if they wanted to keep the realism. i get why they didn't kill so many off because of fan reaction and potential for s3 or a movie, but at least ONE character, even just akane cuz she was a new one. i felt so cheated seeing her and some of the others still alive. like chishiya definitely should've died to complete his character arc with his sacrifice. disappointed they didn't at least kill one off.

how is this related to i don't want to be brothers with you? or is there no relation at all?

pretty cute overall. i wasn't a big fan of the main couple's dynamic for most of the series, it felt too one-sided and then suddenly out of nowhere she liked him back (or maybe this is because they don't have those heart-thumping sound effect moments like in other romances), but once they both liked each other they were so adorable. that one montage near the end where they were happy together and cuddling melted my heart.

some of the moments were way too sweet too. i wouldn't be able to live if someone said to me the things kang ho said to mi ran. how he always said he's so lucky to have met her, how much he respects her, how she's the most amazing woman he's ever met 😭 and the way he would've so easily thrown his acting career away to be with her because she's worth it omg. obviously a stupid choice but still incredibly romantic.

the side couple was okay. i was expecting a lot more from them. tbh their relationship kinda confused me more than anything. though, the confession scene was definitely adorable.

is there gonna be a s2 ?

shin hyunsoo and im semi as high schoolers? interesting...🤔
