1. Lee Kwangsoo’s Sticky Situation The first episode of The Zone: Survival Mission truly sets the tone for the rest of the series. As if having to avoid being soaking wet in freezing cold weather and having to traipse through hurdles wasn’t hard enough, Lee Kwangsoo ups the ante by rolling on slippery glue and struggling to move, which turns out to be the highlight of the episode. From getting stuck on toilet seats to being plastered with ping pong balls, watching Lee Kwangsoo struggle to make it through the episode is slapstick comedy at its finest. 

2. Strong, Independent Men Woman Kwangsoo and Jae Seok’s attempts at portraying a strong masculine image are totally shattered in this series. Not a single episode goes by without the boys calling for “Yuri-ah” to get them out of a difficult situation. Whether it’s carrying a block of ice or staving off a ghost,The Zone: Survival Mission would’ve ended a lot more abruptly without Kwon Yuri. 

3. The Pen is Mightier Than the Sword Kwon Yuri’s determination to get through each survival mission successfully is commendable, especially when she is stuck with a duo who are ready to quit at any moment. As she tries to motivate her teammates, her targeted and witty quips never fail to hit their mark against her less-than-motivated counterparts. Her unexpected jabs and deadpan expressions constantly stun the duo and leave the audience thoroughly entertained. 

4. Zombies with Standards Getting eaten by a zombie is probably everyone’s worst nightmare but for Kwangsoo and Jae Seok being rejected was an even worse prospect. After getting transported back in time to a village full of the undead, they were forced to hold out against the zombies. However, Kwangsoo and Jae Seok soon realised that they were never in trouble as they ironically didn’t meet the zombie’s beauty standards. The prey became the predator as the male duo persistently tried to get the zombies to bite them. 

5. The Entirety of Episode 4 As if having to quarantine isn’t hard enough, try having to isolate yourself in a haunted house. When the trio arrived at a quaint-looking house they immediately expected an easy mission, but they soon discovered that many spooky surprises awaited them. From Kwangsoo grabbing onto Yuri’s legs to hearing grown men scream every two minutes, the entire Survival Zone episode will have you in stitches. 

Whether you enjoy watching reality shows or you’re just in the mood for a laugh, The Zone: Survival Mission is definitely the series to catch. With the finale premiering this week, watch all the episodes streaming on Disney+ Hotstar here.

Kwon Yu-ri sports a bright pink, sloping-shoulder, tight-fitting and short dress that shows off her figure, posing as a dancer to investigate a nightclub. She almost falls down as she doesn’t wear high heels often, but Jung Il-woo immediately swoops in to save the day! Steadying her fall like a knight in shining armor, he even helps her to put on her necklace afterward, instantly making their “ship” sail. In addition, Jung II-woo lives a double life as a business owner by day and a detective by night. What is especially interesting is that he will change his appearance every night to investigate different cases, amounting to a hundred different appearances from a long-haired tycoon to a gray-haired old man. In critical moments, he even showed off his martial arts abilities with a “one vs ten” fight, making him bloat with overconfidence as he declares that he’s even better than Sherlock Holmes, “Honestly, apart from being more famous than me, his appearance, assets, and personality are no match for me!” Jung Il-woo and Kwon Yu-ri did not originally know each other, and only discovered each other’s secrets by mistake. But the two then decided to partner up and make use of their respective strengths to solve cases. While Kwon Yu-ri has super vision, where she is able to see from even hundreds of meters away like a “human telescope” and does not miss a single trace in sight, Jung Il-woo possesses strong logic and execution abilities. After the two form a duo, the “happy couple” are in for a mad adventure filled with comedic moments!
