Team Korea snagged the win in the Physical: Asia finale, scooping up a giant one billion won prize money, basically enough money to buy every protein shake on Earth. They beat Team Mongolia in a three-part showdown that looked like someone mixed gym class with a superhero tryout: wall pushing, iron ball dragging, and an endless game of tag that felt anything but fun.

The Netflix series brought together powerhouse athletes from eight countries: Korea, Japan, the Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, Mongolia, Australia, and Turkey, each sending six super-strong humans who treat workouts like breakfast. Korea’s squad was stacked with pros like MMA fighter Kim Dong-hyun, ssireum champ Kim Min-jae, wrestler Jang Eun-sil, CrossFit beasts Amotti and Choi Seung-yeon, and sliding legend Yun Sung-bin.

As a spinoff of Physical: 100, the show kept all the wild challenges but added an international twist. Four teams entered the finale episode, three survived the latest Death Match, and in the end, Korea stood on top, flexing both national pride and a whole lot of prize money.

Korea and Mongolia battled through three distinct challenges in the finale. The wall-pushing event tested raw power and coordination as teams worked together to move massive barriers. Iron ball dragging demanded both strength and stamina from competitors. The infinite tail tagging game required speed, agility, and tactical thinking. Team Mongolia proved to be a formidable opponent throughout each round. Both squads pushed their physical limits on Physical: Asia, but Korea maintained consistency across all three events. Their combined efforts secured the championship title and financial prize.

The victorious squad featured diverse athletic backgrounds on Physical: Asia. Kim Dong-hyun brought two decades of MMA experience to the team. Kim Min-jae's ssireum wrestling expertise provided traditional Korean combat sports representation.

Jang Eun-sil added another wrestling dimension to the lineup. Crossfitters Amotti and Choi Seung-yeon delivered functional fitness capabilities. Yun Sung-bin, a former skeleton racer, contributed speed and precision. This blend of specialties created a well-rounded unit capable of adapting to various challenges. The MMA veteran shared heartfelt thoughts after the win.

"I was an MMA fighter for about 20 years, and throughout all those years, the championship belts, all those gold medals, they were always out of reach," Kim Dong-hyun explained.

He acknowledged past disappointments and self-doubt during his individual career.

"Winning Physical: Asia on behalf of Korea with this team means more than any medal or belt I could've won on my own," he stated.

The fighter described it as "truly the honor of my career."

Amotti’s second Physical victory

The Crossfitter achieved a unique milestone with this win. Amotti previously won Physical: 100 Season 2, making him a two-time champion in the franchise. He noted the difference between his victories.

"At the end of Season 2, this joy of victory was something I experienced just by myself," Amotti said.

Sharing the triumph with teammates created a distinct feeling.

"Today, I get to share that joy with my incredible teammates here, and that feels special," he added.

His repeat success demonstrates elite-level consistency across different competition formats.
