I’m loving this season so far but I hope next yr they do this again but with actually just Asians (meaning not Australia lmao) and maybe even more diversity eg South Asian & Central Asian countries (obviously I’m aware they can’t get everyone involved but at least 1 country from each region of Asia would’ve been cool)
100% agree. They’re strong & confidence is a good thing but they went beyond that to the level of arrogance.…
Good point!
I think there’s a cultural difference too. I’m British but ethnically I’m Asian so I’ve experienced both cultures & I’ve noticed Asians tend to have more consideration for others - society pushes that a lot more. Whereas western society’s more focused on being independent & promotes individuality.
So I think perhaps it’s more “natural” for the Australian team to think of just themselves & not realise how what they did isn’t sportsmanship. But for me that’s not an excuse, I still think what they did was rude & shows a lack of respect for others
omds I’ve got 4 younger brothers so I’m someone who’s never even considered younger guys before bc I thought they’d remind me of my brothers but I think this show might make me reconsider.
I’ve got favourites from each team bc there’s a lot of impressive contestants but overall I’m rooting for Mongolia the most, really hoping to see them win this!
I hope Australia lose the competition, they're too cocky for a team that's not even from Asia smh

I also didn’t appreciate how they stole Japan’s crates in the shipwreck quest. I know it wasn’t part of the rules but it’s not good sportsmanship & tbh it just brought the idea of colonisation to my mind ☠️ only the whites stole from others, none of the other teams even had the audacity to think of doing that
omg the shipwreck quest was mental, I enjoyed it so much!!
Lkhagva-ochir from team Mongolia was especially impressive with how streamline his movements were on the zipline! He was so fluid, I’m going to have search & watch some of his acrobatics.
omg ep 2 with the billion rematches was flipping crazy! I was shouting at my screen 😂 both Korea & Japan have a lot of endurance to keep going for that long
I loved this drama. the main characters were so grey - yes they did wrong things but they had reasons for them, I felt bad for them. the actors all did a great job.
sad I won’t have this to look forward to every weekend
K-Drama 
shine
Sad to see some of my faves go especially Superbon, Glenn & Jeremiah.
hope we get to know the new guy jaehyung a bit more in the next ep
