Overview
- The multinational season assembles athletes from Korea, Japan, Thailand, Mongolia, Türkiye, Indonesia, Australia and the Philippines.
- Trailer footage features Manny Pacquiao, Robert Whittaker and Kim Dong-hyun as marquee entrants.
- Producer Jang Ho-gi says the set spans roughly five football fields with 40 tons of steel, supported by 500-plus staff and quests tested on more than 30 simulators.
- New visuals include fortress-style arenas inspired by Gyeongbokgung’s Geunjeongjeon Hall, a colossal sinking-ship set piece and construction using about 1,200 tons of sand.
- The Asia edition follows Netflix’s broader franchising of Physical: 100, with a U.S. version confirmed earlier this year and a European rendition in development.
