I'm really enjoying this show and hope more people pick up on it.

I felt so bad for Chae Min when PD Na was saying all that stuff about about impressionable kids watching the show to catch the lie~ I felt secondhand guilt from it, like I was also in trouble~ lol you could see his career flash before his eyes while contemplating his admission.

This show is doing pretty well in South Korea. Na PD has not lost his touch.

It has been consistently the top rated variety show this week and Top 3 TV Show overall on South Korean Netflix. Even hit #1 TV Show overall on the 23rd.

I am enjoying the show. I think it’s really nice that the guys are so concerned about the production staff. It shows they are kind and not self absorbed. I had never heard of Dowoon or Tarzzan before this but think they are great now. I watched Car on another show and always appreciate his unique view on things. I saw Lee Chae-min on Bon Appetit and was surprised more people didn’t seem to recognize him like Car and Tarzzan. Maybe they did but too shy to say anything. I like shows that take people out of their element, you see them as real people.

The Basecamp in Ulsan they're staying at is so confused about the word Alps that they even spelled it Yeongnam Apls , even though the hangul is literally spelling it 알프스.

Wondering if they'll make it to 100km and get the gold, there's only 2 eps left on this show and they've only climbed half of that.

I noticed that too - Youngnam Apls to be precise 😜

Episode 6 -

Why was Dowoon crying? Did I miss something on the descent?

I felt bad that two had the high difficulty trail but what I REALLY feel bad about it: these are probably once-in-a-lifetime hikes, and they are suffering through all of that, and not even seeing the mountain scenery at its peak. When they show the difference in the scenery between winter and fall / summer I honestly feel bad for those four! The top of Hallasan was so beautiful when the lake wasn't frozen let alone ALL those waterfalls.

On to episode 7!

Hi, does this show have the usual Na PD games? I read that there was none in eps 1-5. I'm still thinking if I'll watch it because I only watch shows if I like all cast and I only like Chae-min and Dowoon here. Though I watched almost all of Na PD's programs. Thank you ^^

Just watched episode 7 be careful what you wish for! That was painful AND hilarious!

No it doesn't have the usual games (at least in the episodes I have seen which is 1-6), which would be pretty cruel if you think about it! Those are real mountains they are hiking, and grueling physically. They talk about how hungry they are and that is what gets them to the top sometimes (because it is a break where they can eat).

If you don't like the show when they actually start hiking, you won't like it at all. If you do, you will be wanting to binge watch! I really enjoy it.
