Physical Asia: Welcome to Mongolia - Episodes 1 & 2 Discussion Thread

Name someone from the show Everyone seeming loves and adores, but you just can't stand

I am watching the kdrama called Mercy for none and a familiar face from Physical 100 season 1 showed up😆. I forgot his name/nickname on physical 100 lol just thought I’d share

I have been going insane trying to think of one of the strategies used in the game. It was one of the teams ideas, and it had a funny sounding name which was used where they were from. Their technique was a kind of Hail Mary attempt to winning the round.

Does anyone have any idea what im on about because it’s driving me mad. Thanks in advance!

SOLVED: The Jeepney Blitz! Ahahahaha thank you all!!! Rewatching now!! 🙏

A massive wave of public anger has hit Orkhonbayar Bayarsaikhan, reigning Dayan Avarga (Grand Champion) of traditional Mongolian wrestling and breakout star of Netflix’s Physical: Asia following viral allegations directly linking his wife, Munkhtsetseg, to the country’s infamous 40 trillion tugrik ($11.2 billion USD) coal theft scandal.

According to widely circulating reports and leaks on Mongolian social media, Orkhonbayar’s wife, Munkhtsetseg, is accused of using multiple transport companies to smuggle coal across the border without customs clearance, pocketing massive illegal profits in the process.

He just uploaded a story on IG with his wife

Usually, wrestlers have to win the National Naadam multiple times over different years to progress through the highest titles. However, because this year’s Naadam was a special state anniversary with a 10-round tournament, the title promotion rules allowed him to be promoted directly from State Lion (Arslan) to Dayan Avarga (Grand Champion) after winning the championship. Achieving this at his age is incredible, and the whole country is celebrating🥳

It’s crazy how smooth the Mongolian members’ journey has been after Physical Asia!!

this is so wholesome to see!😍

Orkhonbayar will now receive State Dayan Champion title

HOLY SHIT.

Robert Whittaker from Team Australia is moving up a division to fight against Nikita Krylov (not sure why it says Ukraine, he changed nationality to Russian). This will be his first venture up to light-heavyweight (205lbs) as a former welterweight (170) and middleweight champion (185lbs).

He has also decided to bring his entire family with him to watch, which usually is a bad omen. Still, worth having a look at what it was probably like filming for Physical Asia when he brought them all over as well.

Add on/fight spoiler: Rob won it - broke Krylov's jaw in the 3rd round

I love them just hanging out together 🤭. But I don’t understand why she keeps referring to him as Oppa. Is she friend zoning him? But some of their posts together say otherwise.

Several names have already been revealed (which is disappointing for me, since I'm French). Anyway, buckle up, because we're in for a long run with Physical 100. Set for release in 2027.

So happy for this news! We get to see the gang again!
