(About the failures of expeditions)
It's snowing too much, isn't it?
It's going to snow from the 13th to the 15th?
If this continues, we'll have to get rescued.
(Even the best explorers can't predict what might happen.)
(But on top of that, these guys are beginners.)
Sae Ho, are you okay?
- Yes, I'm okay. - You've become so quiet.
Where are we?
(If you try to compromise...)
While we keep going,
I think I suddenly might want to go home.
(They can always get in a car or decide to go back home.)
I might think, "Gosh, I really want to go home."
- We're kind of in a crisis. - It's only been a day.
I think we might get stuck in a crisis.
We're not going as fast as we thought we'd be going.
And their physical condition...
isn't exactly...
(The members aren't physically doing so well.)
in the best state.
We won't be able to make it in this state.
- Right? - Yes.
(A few hours ago, in the morning)
(It's their 2nd day.)
(The morning sun is still quite peaceful.)
(The camels are sleepy.)
(And the members are still sleeping.)
(But why are there only three people?)
(Where's Jung Nam?)
(Jung Nam's sleeping outside all by himself.)
(Alarm ringing)
(6:05am, Jung Nam wakes up 1st.)
(He wakes up and takes a look around.)
(Oman)
(He's right here.)
(I forgot that I'm at the desert.)
(Stretching)
(Captain Ji's morning is different from everyone else.)
(Jung Nam is getting ready to cook breakfast.)
(What's he going to cook for breakfast?)
There we go.
(Rice cake soup?)
There.
Great.
I think I'm eating better meals here than in Korea.
(Meanwhile, the others...)
(are taking a shower with wet wipes.)
(It's their first breakfast in the desert.)
- Breakfast is ready. - Thank you for the meal.
- It won't taste bad. - Thank you for the meal.
(It makes them feel like they're aging.)
- It's nice, right? - It's so delicious.
Do you want to share a bowl of instant rice?
Sure.
It's not done yet.
It's okay. I'll just eat it.
- It's not ready yet though. - It'll be fine.
We need to heat it a bit more.
(Hard)
Gosh, this won't do. I can't eat this.
(Sae Ho's good at switching his opinion.)
We can heat it some more.
Do you think it's done by now? Aren't you hungry?
I'm sure it'll be fine. We can just eat it.
- Do you think so? - Of course.
(It's still hard.)
I don't think we can eat this.
This won't do.
Stop lying. Are you being serious?
I'm being serious.
My gosh, I'm full now.
We have so much to clean up.
We need to leave this place nice and clean.
(They clean up the place they stayed at.)
(He picks up the trash.)
(They're almost done cleaning.)
I'm done. It's nice and clean.
The camels are here.
(The camels are here to carry their luggage.)
- Hello. Good morning. - Hi.
(Struggling)
- Wait. - Here.
- Okay. - It just got startled.
Is it heavy? I'm sorry.
- Our luggage has become lighter. - I know.
(Their luggage is lighter than yesterday.)
I have a bad feeling.
Is there something on your bottom again?
I don't know. My gosh.
(His bottom's been causing him trouble ever since yesterday.)
Didn't you say you got rid of it?
I'm being serious. My bottom's in trouble.
My gosh, this is not good.
Is it in trouble? What should we do?
It's really not doing well.
(They'll just have to leave it to fate.)
(He checks his bottom and arranges his pants.)
I lost weight.
I'm being serious. I lost weight.
- My gosh. - This is how it looked at first.
But now, it's become loose.
That can't be true.
(He's so excited.)
Let's start the day happily.
I'll give you a short briefing on what's been going on in Korea...
while we were sleeping and how things are here.
- Then let's get going. - Okay.
This is what happened last night.
Apparently, there were a few staff members who suffered...
- from dizziness last night. - I see.
Two of the staff members kept insisting that they were okay...
when they obviously weren't.
In the end, they collapsed from sunstroke.
With the help of the Bedouins who instantly came to their rescue,
they managed to get to their accommodation.
And they got better really quickly...
as soon as they turned on the air conditioner.
- That's a relief. - What a relief.
The important thing is that they won't be shooting today.
A few of the staff members who heard about this...
apparently suddenly felt the urge of collapsing as well.
They're kind of hoping that they'll collapse today.
That's totally understandable.
Next, I have some really important news.
It's about a female idol in Korea.
Did a group split?
Son Na Eun of Apink...
- Yes? - What happened?
She hurt her ankle.
(Na Eun worries her fans by hurting her ankle.)
That's not good.
- That's bad. - It's such a pity to hear that.
Jin Hee, do you know who Na Eun is?
- I know her. - Yes. We shot a drama together.
- Are you acquainted with her too? - Yes.
Then why don't you say something to her?
My gosh, Na Eun. Why did you hurt yourself?
You don't seem like you mean a word you just said.
You should go to an oriental doctor and get acupuncture.
- I hope you quickly recover. - Don't forget to text her.
Okay, we hope that she'll quickly recover.
Lastly, let's take a look at today's weather.
According to the leader,
it won't be as hot as it was yesterday.
- It's 39.1°C. - That's not bad.
It's not 40°C.
- But the humidity... - It's zero percent.
is still very unpleasant.
- Are you done? Thank you. - Yes, it's over.
That was nice.
We're going to get going now.
Regardless of the bad situation we were in yesterday,
we were still able to walk 8km.
But the situation's a lot better today.
We followed the canyons yesterday.
That's because we wanted to find a place to sleep.
And it was also to walk in the shade.
But right now, the sun's about to rise to the center of the sky,
so there's no shade whatsoever.
Regardless of which way we decide to go,
- the sun will equally shine. - Yes.
So we'll start off...
- by walking straight that way. - Okay.
- Do you see the trees over there? - Yes.
Where?
It's right over there.
There are trees right beneath the rocks over there.
Let's take some rest there and decide on where to sleep.
- What do you think about the plan? - It sounds nice.
- Is there a slogan or something? - Should we think of one?
(They're all empty-minded.)
How about we all chant the name of the show?
In 1, 2, 3.
- Where on Earth! - Where on Earth!
- Let's do this! - Let's do this!
- Let's go. - Okay.
(Progress Status, Day 1: They walked 7.8km)
(Day 2: Their aim is to walk 10km. How much will they walk?)
(To make up for yesterday, they need to walk at least 12km.)
- The weather's cool. - Yes.
It's not that bad today.
It's the best out of the entire time we've been here.
- It's the best. - It's not bad, right?
- It's great. - Is everyone feeling okay?
We're all feeling great.
The path is great too.
It's the best.
What do you think about walking 12km to 15km today?
- It sounds great. - I'm up for it.
- Right? - We need to walk...
- at least 12km. - 12km.
That's how we can make up for walking 8km yesterday.
- It's not a bad idea. - Today's a great day.
Let's get there as fast as we can and have a can of beer.
- Nice. - Sure. Why not?
- Why not? - Let's do that.
(The members follow their captain.)
Let's walk a little quickly here.
Okay.
(Let's walk fast before it turns 40°C.)
Nice.
- Should I show you something? - Yes.
This is how you can walk fast.
Like this?
Yes, that's how you walk fast.
If you walk like that, your legs won't hurt.
It's not bad. I think I can keep doing it.
It's too fast.
Jin Hee's okay with going that fast. We need to keep our pace.
Sae Ho's the problem. He shouldn't go that fast.
Sae Ho will collapse at that rate.
That's great. Keep going.
Walk to the ends of the earth.
Sae Ho, how are things up there?
It's amazing.
Is it?
How can there be no clouds here?
You're right.
Are there usually no clouds here?
If you take your sunglasses off, the sun is glaring hot.
Wait a second. Wait.
The staff are going to let us walk on our own now.
That's when we need to speed things up. Do you understand?
Let's go.
(Captain Ji and his members...)
(try to make the best out of this opportunity.)
(Let's all walk fast.)
(Day 2: They walked 1km.)
Did we walk 1km?
- Jung Nam. - Exactly 1km.
- Right now? - Yes.
Let's go. We came 1km.
- Only 1km? - Yes.
(Jung Nam's walking from behind.)
My gosh, I'm a little tired from having walked this much.
There's a house over there.
Right? What is that?
It's a house.
- Is it a hotel? - Are they Bedouins?
(Why is there a house in the middle of a desert?)
Why is there a house there?
It's really absurd.
I think we should go...
- and see what that is. - Is it part of the expedition?
I guess so.
Should we go over there?
Over to the house?
- Are we allowed to? - Of course. It's not that far away.
- Let's go. I'm curious. - Okay.
I think it's a Bedouin's house.
That might be true.
- Maybe it's a hospital. - I wish that place was a cafe.
But wouldn't that be so weird?
Of course.
(A place that's located in the middle of nowhere)
(Could it be a rest area for these explorers?)
(Will they get to drink cold drinks on their second day?)
I want a cup of iced latte.
I want watermelon juice.
It's on me.
(They all start making meaningless orders.)
- It looks like a gas station. - A gas station?
- It kind of looks like one. - Yes, it does.
It really must be a gas station.
- What? - It must be a gas station.
If it's a gas station,
there has to be a mart.
There has to be snacks.
Isn't that a given?
- This place is covered in dung. - What is this?
It's a rest area for camels.
- We were wrong. - My gosh.
(Dumbfounded)
It gave us a split second of joy. There aren't any snacks here.
It's not a gas station, and there are no snacks.
(What is this place?)
(It's actually where...)
(Bedouins live.)
(Bedouins: They normally roam around the desert,)
(but they sometimes settle down where there are a lot of trees.)
(The members are at a place where there are a lot of trees.)
(Jung Nam keeps falling behind.)
Gosh, I'm a little...
Do you feel sick?
No, I just have a headache.
- What? - I have a headache.
- Oh, really? Then slow down. - Soak your hair with water.
I'm a little dizzy.
- Jung Nam, are you okay? - Yes.
- Is Jung Nam here? - Yes.
- I'm fine. - No.
You can't say you're fine. You need to be precise and honest.
- We can take some rest. - Tell us.
Do you think you can keep going?
- Well... - I think I'm okay.
- I think we'll need to rest. - Yes, we do.
There are two trees over there. I think that place will be spacious.
- Okay. - It's right behind this tree.
(Captain Ji looks for a tree to rest beneath.)
- Let's take some rest. - Okay.
- Here? - Yes.
(It's been 35 minutes since they departed.)
- How much did we walk? - 2km.
- 2km? - Yes.
We walked a lot. Gosh, it's so cool here.
(They decide to take some rest due to Jung Nam's condition.)
My sweat's already drying. It's pretty cool under here.
(Worried)
Jung Nam, are you okay?
How is your headache?
I'm okay. There are too many thorns on the ground.
Clear the ground with your shoes like this.
(The doctor comes to check up on him.)
It's him. He's not in a severe condition.
No, I'm fine.
Jung Nam, you tend to always say that you're okay.
Maybe I'm a little stressed.
- No, that's not the case. - You need to let him check.
Keep this in your mouth.
- If you collapse from sunstroke, - You'll get in trouble.
you'll have to go home right away.
That's because you'll no longer be able to walk.
It'll happen again as soon as the sun hits you.
So you'll either have to go to a hospital...
- or a hotel. - Listen to him, Jung Nam.
- You should speak directly to him. - Okay.
- His body temperature is 37°C. - I'm fine.
- He could have a mild fever. - He has a mild fever.
- So he needs to... - We'll take enough rest.
I think I'm fine.
Gosh, listen to the doctor. You're not the doctor.
Guys like Jung Nam...
- We're fine. - Is it normal to have a headache?
Doctors really don't like guys like Jung Nam.
They keep trying to convince doctors that they're not sick.
When do the camels arrive?
Why are you asking for the camels?
- They have ice. - Oh, ice?
I'm fine.
Gosh, stop saying you're okay.
You really need to listen to the doctor.
You'll really get yourself in trouble.
(Jin Hee's upset because Jung Nam keeps acting like he's okay.)
I think my neck hurts because I couldn't sleep well last night.
Of course. You didn't get to sleep well,
and you're walking in the hot desert. So of course, it hurts.
You're precisely correct.
(The three other members snored all night.)
(So Jung Nam couldn't fall sleep.)
Jung Nam did a lot of work.
- He was very concerned. - Of course.
Doctor, can you see how I'm doing?
You also have a mild fever.
- What's my body temperature? - Yes.
Your body temperature is 37.1°C.
I think everyone's body temperature will be that high.
Yes, I think so too.
Okay, that's enough.
- Jin Hee... - No.
Tae Hyun's body temperature is 36.4°C.
- See? See? - He's perfectly normal.
You guys really need to be careful.
(The camels have arrived.)
Can you give this to Jung Nam and tell him to...
use this to decrease his body temperature?
The ice pack is here.
What? You want me to put it on my head?
Oh, really? Okay.
(He puts ice on the back of his neck.)
Is it because the back of my head is burning hot?
(Cool)
(Jin Hee finally feels relieved.)
(But Jung Nam suddenly gets up.)
Gosh, that hurts.
- I have a blister. - Do you have a blister?
Do I need to put on...
- a Band-Aid or something? - No, that won't be enough.
Lay down first. Let's ask the doctor when he comes.
Your blister will get bigger as you walk.
I think I got it starting from yesterday.
It's probably because you got hurt yesterday.
Jung Nam, lie down.
Rest for a little bit. Let's talk when the doctor comes.
(Jin Hee finally feels a little relieved.)
According to the map,
- Yes? - we have to walk that way, right?
To that way.
Do we have to go straight?
Jung Nam, please just lie down.
I'm fine now.
Stay down for a while.
What time should we depart?
- I think... - I'm fine now.
- I've recovered. - You need to rest.
We'll get a move on once the doctor says you're good to go.
I think I'm fine now.
(They've tired out earlier than expected.)
(It's only been 40 minutes since they've departed.)
(But they're already taking a break under the shade for an hour.)
Gosh, it's 33°C now.
My gosh, that's incredible.
How could it change so quickly?
(It was 39°C when they first started off.)
How interesting.
We were here for just a while,
but the humidity went up and the temperature went down.
It's 34°C.
(Do you think the temperature went down because of the shade?)
(However)
(The shade canopy they brought from Korea...)
- We need to go this way. - Gosh, it's so hot.
(It's so hot.)
Gosh, it's burning.
(It was burning hot even under the shade.)
(The shade beneath the tree is definitely cooler.)
(Quick Trivia: The science behind the shade made by trees)
(Transpiration occur in trees.)
(Transpiration: The process of water evaporating from leaves)
(It's like how evaporation ends up reducing the overall temperature.)
(Transpiration occurs best...)
(when there's strong sunlight, low humidity,)
(and a strong wind.)
(The desert is bearable as long as there are trees.)
Let's get ready.
We took enough rest.
We're going to get going now.
First of all,
if we go that way, there won't be a lot of shades.
There's really nothing but the desert.
But I can already see a few trees over on that side.
- The bottom of the ridge? - Yes.
I think there are a lot more trees on that side.
You're right. It'll take us less time if we go that way.
- But it could be dangerous. - Seriously.
- So let's just go this way. - Okay.
(They decide to take the path where there are tree shades.)
It's 10 minutes to 10am. We're departing at 9:50am.
Gosh, it's become hot again.
With the ice pack...
- Do you feel better? - Yes.
- That's a relief. - It's become so hot.
It's completely different from before.
- Check on Jung Nam. - Okay.
(The temperature's risen while they took a rest.)
- Are you okay? - Yes.
(It's now become 40°C.)
It's burning hot.
It feels so different...
- from two hours ago. - Yes, it does.
There's so much difference between...
8am and 10am.
You're right.
(There's already a difference in their walk.)
(They've slowed down due to the heat.)
Are you tired?
- You've become so quiet. - Who? Me?
Did you ask if I'm upset?
Did you ask me if I'm upset? What did you say?
I asked if you're tired.
(The heat must've gotten to Sae Ho's head.)
Sae Ho's upset at his bottom.
- Yes, I am. - Right.
He's disappointed in his bottom.
He can't believe his bottom is so weak.
My bottom's already suffering from sunstroke.
Did you put powder on it?
I'm thinking about putting powder on it a little later.
- I'll do it for you. - No, it's okay.
Someone will have to do it for you. You can't do it alone.
No, it's okay. I don't think it's that bad.
- What's wrong? - My underwear keeps getting stuck.
- Your underwear? - Yes.
Then just take it off.
I'm thinking about it.
(Exploring with no underwear)
(Something welcomes Sae Ho's burning bottom.)
Wait a minute. Do we need to pass all these sand dunes?
Exactly.
(There's a sand dune after a sand dune.)
Gosh, this path isn't easy.
- I agree. - It's hard.
(Sighing)
This won't be easy.
This is crazy. My feet's sinking in.
My gosh.
(He's walking on the trail that was made by the staff's vehicle.)
I think the Bedouins...
are going the right way.
I think the path that the camels are walking on is the best.
(How are the Bedouins doing?)
They're going that way.
Look.
(The Bedouins take a short rest underneath the shade.)
I think they're really wise.
They take a rest every time they encounter a shade.
The camels sit down for a while and start walking again.
I think this is their know-how. Let's go now.
Okay.
We're going to walk toward the tree.
Come inside the shade.
(10:15am: Rest)
It's really cool down here. It's completely different.
(They find another shade.)
Each tree is like a signpost.
(10:30am: Rest)
- I agree. - Every tree is a signpost.
(I feel like I can walk every time I take a rest underneath the shade.)
I thought we'd be walking at least 10km.
I do feel like this will end a lot faster if we walk that way.
Of course.
- That way? - Yes.
He's talking about walking that way.
Let's go.
- Hey. - Jung Nam.
(His mouth seems to be okay now.)
Calm down.
It doesn't look that steep.
You'll faint.
- Come on. Let's do it. - We can sleep over there.
It'd be great if we could sleep up there.
I'm ready now, Captain Ji. Just tell me when you're ready.
- Carry your bag. - Okay.
Stand up.
(Scratching)
Why do you keep scratching that part?
My bottom's giving me the hardest time.
My bottom isn't doing very well.
(His bottom's worse than the heat and sand dunes.)
Let's go.
He's battling with his bottom.
Should I give you a hand?
- What do you say, Sae Ho? - No, it's fine.
(We hope you reconcile with your bottom as soon as possible.)
Take one and use it as a cane.
(He takes a fallen tree branch.)
(Isn't it better now?)
(He throws it back on the ground.)
Did it break?
(Solemn)
Why does that look like the sea?
Isn't it water?
- This is crazy. - It looks like water.
I thought it was water.
(Startled)
Isn't that...
the sea?
Over there on the left.
Isn't that water over there?
- My gosh. - It's not water?
It's either a mirage or water.
What is that?
(Why are they suddenly seeing water?)
Am I seeing things?
(Is it an oasis? Or is it a mirage?)
- Isn't the color blue? - It's probably a mirage.
(The map shows no sign of water.)
Do mirages really exist?
- Of course. - What is it exactly?
A mirage isn't an imaginary image.
The sky reflects the sea and makes it seem like it's there.
So it may seem like there's a sea over there,
- but it's actually not there. - It's not there.
What would happen if you go over there thinking that there's water?
- You'll collapse. - You'll be in big trouble.
We almost died.
Right.
- We almost died. - What?
- If you had gone there? - Yes, we almost died.
(They could've passed away.)
I've been seeing that ever since yesterday.
- Really? - Yes.
It's so hot.
(They start enduring the heat again.)
I don't see any trees anymore.
There's one over there.
Let's walk toward the tree.
- There's one over there. - We need to go that way.
But after this...
- There aren't any more trees. - This is it.
Let's be ready for the worst starting from this point.
We really need to be prepared to walk all the way there.
(They'll at least need a small shade in order to rest.)
Gosh, I think I have a headache.
- Really? Then let's rest. - Yes.
- I think we should. - You need to tell me quickly.
Which tree are we going to rest at next?
- That's the only tree. - Don't ever go left.
There's only one tree in the center.
It's like a deserted island.
(It's the last tree they see around here.)
Which way...
(There aren't any more trees.)
- We'll just have to keep going. - Yes.
We'll just have to rest when we get there.
(10:50am, They've walked 3.6km from their starting point.)
My gosh.
- Take your hat off. - Okay.
(Sae Ho has a headache.)
- My gosh. - Do you feel better?
Yes. I suddenly started having a little headache.
- He's a little dizzy. - I'm okay now.
How long are we going to rest here? Are we resting until lunchtime?
Or is this going to be a short break?
I personally want to keep going.
But I really can't estimate how things are going to be.
There's absolutely nothing.
(There's absolutely nothing starting from where they are.)
I think it's going to be around 40°C to 41°C right now.
Let's take a rest underneath the tree.
(10:50am: They decide to take a long rest.)
Okay.
- Let's pitch a tent here. - Okay.
(Nothing's easy...)
We need to add this.
(in the desert.)
(Everything's labor.)
Let's see how it'll look like.
(It is the same as yesterday.)
- It's the same. - Why not use it as a rug then?
Pull it.
- Pull, right? - Yes, pull.
- Right there. - Good.
(Making food is tough too.)
That should do.
(They rely on self-heating meals.)
(The camel is already eating.)
- I'll open this up quickly first. - Sure.
I think it'll be too hot.
(Ouch, it's hot.)
(It makes contact again.)
(The hygiene leader is injured yet again.)
Gosh. What's wrong with me?
- It's vegetables and rice. - Vegetables and rice.
(The menu is vegetables and rice with curry.)
(It has to be tasty.)
We must depart by 3:30pm.
We'll have to get up by 3pm,
and get ready to leave.
Is it time for bed?
We'll get some rest.
(They expected to rest at ease.)
(Getting up)
So much sweat.
The sweat on my back is pooling up.
(Soon, Jin Hee gets up as well.)
(Sighing)
The sunlight keeps creeping down to my face.
(The shade crept down down slowly as he slept.)
(Jin Hee kept getting up to move down.)
(They change positions for the remaining 3 hours.)
We have to go down a lot more.
- This is good, right? - Yes.
Isn't it okay now?
I should shake this down. What is this?
Goodness, it's sand.
The sand keeps blowing in as I sleep.
(The desert wind...)
(sweeps hot sand particles along.)
I think I'm done sleeping.
It's too warm for my back.
(Coughing)
(Every time they breathe, sand invades their nostrils.)
Gosh.
Resting isn't easy here.
I can understand the panic.
The fact that there is no escape...
is overwhelming.
- A sense of horror. - Right.
That's why I don't travel much overseas.
Wherever I go, I feel like I'm stuck in a huge capsule.
But this is about the worst of all.
A tightly-shut capsule?
I feel like I'm stuck inside a sauna.
You're right. It's so exhausting.
We can't open a door and get out.
(This place is a sauna without a door.)
(They must endure for another 2 hours and 30 minutes.)
(There is no internet, cell phones, or TVs.)
(The only thing they have is a lot of time.)
It's so hot. I'm sweating like crazy.
(How do they decide to hold onto their sanity?)
(First)
- They're kind of nonsensical. - Okay.
(Quizzes)
What has a birthday and a funeral at once?
In common...
- A gnat? - Correct.
(Remarking surprise)
(Laughing for no real reason)
- He's good. - He likes it.
- How is he so good? - I know.
What kind of business can...
legally rip people off?
Whoever gets away with it.
Correct.
What is the fastest bird?
It's five characters long.
I'll give you a hint.
- In the blink of an eye. - Correct.
What can only survive on beatings?
- A top. - Correct.
- A top. - A top.
- He's so good. - You read that a lot, didn't you?
- What? - He's really good.
- I didn't read that. - When you were young.
If you're become a father of children, you'd know.
- You do it with them. - Kids...
- I do it with Soo Chan too. - I see.
But I still don't know.
- Even though I do it with him. - Kids must like it.
What do you call money stolen by a thief?
Money stolen by a thief?
Of course thieves steal money.
But remember, it's supposed to be a bit nonsensical.
What do you call money stolen by a thief?
(Tae Hyun has zero motivation to guess.)
(Jung Nam is getting bored.)
I'm getting tired now.
Who gets praised for beating someone up and stealing?
(He fixes the question in a hurry)
I have no idea.
Goodness.
Beating and stealing...
Should I keep going?
Giving questions is hard too.
(Imitation)
Are you cool?
I'm just drinking.
(His voice gets raspy due to a dry throat.)
If it gets any drier, I think I'll sound like Byun Hee Bong.
(Imitation time)
Hey, Jung Nam, this is tasty.
- It's pretty close. - Really?
(Then, how about it.)
The squid legs are gone.
(He keeps going based on the positive feedback.)
Did you eat them?
The squid legs are gone.
(From "The Host")
Did you eat them?
The squid legs are gone.
(He's very content.)
Did you eat them?
(Everyone is happy.)
(Why the hygiene manager is in pain.)
(Massaging his foot)
(He places the same hand on his head.)
(He goes right back to touching his foot.)
(He rubs his eye.)
(Then, his nose)
(And soon, the same finger goes to his lips.)
(Let's stop here.)
What's the time?
(After laughing and horsing around, it is 2pm.)
2pm.
Resting for four hours is very hard.
It's so hard.
(The heat is suffocating.)
I just don't feel refreshed today.
I know.
(There is still 1 hour and 30 minutes left.)
Let's just walk 4km today.
(They walked 3.6km this morning.)
Then, we'll have to walk more.
(They're behind their plan by 5km.)
We won't be able to proceed at this rate.
- Right? - Yes.
[Kocowa Ver] KBS2 E03 Where On Earth?? "Captain’s New Plan" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
(During the initial presentation, the original goal...)
(was to walk 10km a day.)
(Where on Earth Progress Report)
(They walked 7.8km the 1st day.)
(They are nearly 50 percent short of their 2-day goal.)
There are no toothpicks around.
While we were sleeping the temperature climbed to 52ºC.
- Gosh. - No wonder.
52ºC?
(This is a common temperature out here.)
Just lying down was torturous.
(They all get together.)
Everyone got livelier. Earlier, we were all pooped.
The human body is an amazing thing.
When it's a little tough, we're down. Now, we're all lively.
Let's go.
(There are no trees going forward.)
(How will they make it?)
(However,)
(Jin Hee, the leader,)
(begins to walk very fast.)
He walks kind of fast.
- Jin Hee? - Yes.
- Does he hike a lot? - It just means...
- that he's very healthy. - I see.
(He accommodated for everyone's pace until now.)
(He pretty much walks alone.)
Going at your own pace is important.
Of course.
We get tired because we're trying to walk on his pace.
- It was leisurely. - I know.
(Keeping up with Jin Hee might result in a health issue.)
(Each person walks at his own pace.)
(The distance between them have gotten huge.)
It's a dune that we can't even go up.
This is seriously...
(A pretty large cliff formations appear.)
What will we see over that hill?
(Jin Hee goes on without a word.)
(The rest of them trail behind him diligently.)
(Their stamina has been drained from the incline.)
It's getting tiring quick.
It wasn't so bad not too long ago.
This is tough. This is really tough.
If there's an incline, there is also a decline.
(Jin Hee arrives at the top of the hill.)
(Pausing)
(He returns the way he came.)
(What made him turn back?)
Why is he coming back?
Maybe he went the wrong way.
(Why did he stop walking forward?)
Walk slowly.
I think he's waiting for us.
(Jin Hee looks back for the first time.)
How many kilometers have we walked so far?
Has it been at least 500 to 600m?
500m.
(They have currently walked 500m.)
Now that I think about it, it's easier under the shade.
- Right? - Yes.
We'll rest here for now.
(They used the shade from the hill because there are no trees.)
We'll rest again under the shade there.
- Okay. - Sure.
- Rest sufficiently here. - We're going to rest here?
Just come down once you're ready.
I'll go find the next point.
It's okay.
(He tells them to rest and begins trekking again.)
I think that's the right thing to do.
We're going to rest here?
(Why is Jin Hee...)
(walking ahead alone?)
How about we walk 12 to 15km today?
(Today's plan was to walk 12km.)
Tae Hyun, my bottom isn't feeling very well right now.
Right? I don't think you're in a good condition.
I can understand the panic.
(The crew members' condition is unexpectedly worsen.)
(A Must For Trekking Across a Desert)
(Sufficient rest is more important than the trek itself.)
(Rest points are great progress milestones.)
(Places with shade are resting points.)
(A special order is necessary.)
After resting here sufficiently,
we'll head towards another shady area.
Traveling under the shade is much cooler.
I'll figure out which direction to go at the next stop.
(He will trek ahead of them?)
While they rest, I'll scout on ahead and confirm the direction.
We'll be more informed.
(But that means Jin Hee will be walking twice as more.)
Let's go. Let's go on ahead.
(Sure, he is Jin Hee. But will he be okay?)
Gosh. The recent stretch was a bit tough for me.
Just leave without me, Tae Hyun.
That's how I feel a little.
What will you do alone here?
I'll go on after surveying the scenery for a while.
- Should we go? - Yes.
It's downhill now, Sae Ho. It's better.
It's what I want to do most.
After sleeping in on a Sunday,
I'd wear a t-shirt and shorts and go eat cold buckwheat noodles.
The broth.
(In his heart, he is already slurping away the cool broth.)
And a nice cold glass of soju and beer.
That's right.
Mix in some ice cold beer.
When we return to Seoul,
let's become close pals and spend a lot of time.
Let's go eat the noodles.
Sound good. Let's go.
I'm going to rest once I get up there.
(The leader discovers another hill.)
(This man is hiking in 39º heat.)
(It seems like some mineral spring at a mountain.)
(He clears the incline in a jiffy.)
Is there Pocari Sweat in here?
Drink some.
(Is he not even thirsty?)
Drink some and rest.
(He drinks after looking after a staff member first.)
It's so fascinating. How plants grow in the desert.
- It really is. - They're cute.
We'll put it in a vase at home.
I find them so adorable.
(Jung Nam is preoccupied with the plants.)
(How can flowers bloom if there is no water?)
(He has been interested since the first day.)
(He fed a goat a snack too.)
(What do you think camels live for?)
(Jung Nam is curious about all living things in the desert.)
How often do you think it rains here?
It is maybe about once or twice a year.
- Only that much? - But plants still survive?
How do they even grow?
It's so fascinating.
How can they grow with 1 or 2 rainfalls a year?
They color is so pretty.
Look at them without your glasses. It's so pretty.
Gosh. Where did Jin Hee go?
There he is.
We're going up this hill?
I hate uphill climbs.
Seriously, again...
This is really the worst.
(It is a steep and miserable climb.)
It's hard to climb.
It's slipping so much.
(The sand makes it a tough climb.)
It's making my ankles twist a lot.
(Ankles twist and turn.)
(It isn't easy on the knees either.)
(This is the high level course with difficulties.)
(They no longer talk.)
This is pretty tiring.
The fatigue is settling in.
(Under this heat, it feels like they're climbing up the Himalayas.)
Sit on top of the rocks.
It was very tiring this time.
- Right? - Yes.
Don't do over your pace. Just sit down.
I came up here to plot the course.
(Knocked out)
(Plopping down)
(Knocked down 2)
(They are completely immobilized.)
(Will Sae Ho stop here?)
Sit on top of the rocks.
It was very tiring this time.
- Right? - Yes.
Don't do over your pace. Just sit down.
I came up here to plot the course.
(Knocked out)
(Plopping down)
(Knocked down 2)
(They are completely immobilized.)
This time, the pain is pretty strong.
Do you have a headache, or is your muscle aching?
It's nothing like that. But my breathing...
Maybe it's because I came uphill.
(He is suddenly hyperventilating.)
Unhook your harnesses.
I slightly overdid myself.
Seems that way.
Why did you come so fast? You should've walked slower.
(They had no choice but to hike looking for shade.)
It's no joke.
(Tae Hyun is still breathing.)
You pushed yourselves trying to catch up.
We'll rest a bit first.
Absolutely.
You must rest.
(Jin Hee is already plotting the next course.)
How far did we come, Jung Nam?
- Today? - Yesterday included.
I think about 13km.
13km?
(There is still 27km to go.)
Where will we head next?
We've come a good way. Next stop is that shade there.
Where?
From here, we have to walk across.
(While debating when to cross,)
We have no choice but to traverse through.
(They must cross over an open area with no shade.)
We can't just keep going around.
First, we'll head that direction.
There are a lot of trees too.
(There next destination is a little shady area near a rock formation.)
How do you feel, Sae Ho?
- I feel a little better now. - Do you?
Make sure to rest well, or else it's dangerous, Sae Ho.
Getting injured is the worst case scenario.
You can follow the shade, okay?
Trek under the shade of the hill.
Okay.
(Jin Hee moves on to the next location.)
Will it be helpful for them to move up ahead?
During the past two days,
they figured out how to work with their stamina.
I trust them to follow well.
How amazing. They look like waves.
Here, in the driest part of the world.
The sand looks like waves.
Then, it might be the effects of the wind, right?
The wind causes waves in the ocean.
Sand is probably the same.
I'll pick up sticks...
and leave a trail.
Will they be able to tell?
This way.
(It's unlikely for them to notice, but it's cute anyway.)
(What now?)
(His Item leveled up.)
(Among all South Korean celebrities, he is most suited for the desert.)
(5:05pm in the evening)
We're finally going downhill.
- It's nice and refreshing. - It's nice.
(Once the sun goes down, the wind gets more refreshing than the day.)
It came after going up the hill.
Of course.
(It is time for them to walk diligently.)
(The leader climbs to a vantage point again...)
(to confirm their next direction.)
We won't be able to confirm if there is shade until we go over.
But there are a lot of trees, so shade shouldn't be a problem.
The hill should be providing shade against the sun.
We'll be able to set up our base camp for the night.
(Now, his instincts are confirmed to be trustworthy.)
Straight and ahead.
It is 5:30pm now.
So, we have 40 minutes.
We can do it. It is totally doable.
Get plenty of rest here.
(It is as if he is conducting a solo photoshoot.)
(He relays his order and heads back down.)
(However, Tae Hyun is nowhere to be found.)
- One person is over there. - What?
- There is a person over there. - One of ours?
Jin Hee, why are they heading that way?
(They confirm where Tae Hyun is thanks to a Bedouin.)
Why is he going the opposite direction?
What is he suddenly doing?
Why is he going back? Did he drop something?
(Worrying)
Tae Hyun.
Where are you going?
He's just going.
(Why is Tae Hyun going the opposite direction?)
I'm heading back on Thursday, sweetie.
(What? He is on the phone?)
Bye.
(2nd daughter: Cha Soo Jin, 1st daughter: Cha Tae Eun)
I'm up here.
- Don't go. - What?
- Don't go. - Don't go.
- I don't want to go either.
It's because dad doesn't want to go to the desert.
I really don't want to go.
You're going to the desert?
- Yes. - Then, you can't drink water?
Water?
(Saluting)
What if you die?
(His children worried for his wellbeing.)
- We have reception. - Really?
Should I try making a call?
(They suddenly get signal while resting.)
- What time is it there? - Probably around 9.
(They tried but they couldn't make the call.)
(Their phones are suddenly functional.)
The phone is working.
What?
- Dad. - Yes, Soo Chan?
Are you at the desert, right now?
Yes, the desert.
We're heading towards the end of the desert...
on foot.
Will you be able to do it?
Usually, it wouldn't be possible.
But we're checking to see if it is.
- We're giving it a go. - Okay.
Okay.
- Dad. - Who are you?
What time are you coming back?
Who is this? Soo Jin?
Yes. It's Soo Jin.
You're awake now too?
(He talks to each of his three kids.)
Dad, are you drinking a lot of water?
What?
(Suddenly, the signal gets weak.)
(He eventually walks back to where the signal was good.)
Am I drinking water? Yes, of course.
Of course I drank water.
(Sure, he has to walk under the scorching heat again.)
(But if it's for his family, he'll do whatever it takes.)
The phone is working so well here.
Okay. Bye.
(Unfortunately, the conversation ends here.)
- Let's head under the shade. - Sure.
(These single men have no one to call.)
He'll be here. It's best to go together.
I should take a stick with me.
I think it's more helpful.
(Instead of a hiking pole, he settles for a stick.)
Is it better to have one?
- Pardon? - Is it better?
Yes, it's not bad. Try it.
See if you like it.
It's not bad.
- You can have it. - It's okay.
- I'll grab another. It's a gift. - It's okay.
It's really a gift.
A gift?
(They look after one another.)
Hold on.
What's wrong?
(Breaking)
What in the world? It's broken.
Did it? I'll buy you another one. Just wait.
(There is another pile of sticks up ahead.)
The color is impressive.
(Should I use this one?)
(He scans for the new models.)
(Is this a desert mall?)
(While Sae Ho is busy shopping,)
(Jung Nam discovers grass?)
I'm curious to know how deep the roots are. Let's see.
How deep do you think they are? Aren't you curious?
(I'm more curious about you.)
How does it survive?
What a mystery.
(Everyone somehow ended up in the same expedition.)
How does it survive?
(But they're all off and about doing what they want.)
How does it survive?
Gosh. The roots are seriously deep.
(Eventually, Sae Ho joins in.)
It seems there is water underneath.
That's how it's surviving.
Is it cool? No, it's hot.
But if it doesn't have water...
The roots are out. That's the last of it.
A gift.
- No, that's fine. - It's a gift.
Let's lessen the load, not add it.
Well, it's practically weightless.
- It's a gift. - Okay.
(What is going on here?)
This is my gift to Sae Ho.
(This scene seems familiar.)
(It is a bashful moment, when a boy gifts a flower ring.)
It's my gift.
It looks great, Sae Ho.
You look like you're digging for ginseng.
- Okay. - Did you put on some powder?
I'll put some on when you lie down.
(Jung Nam worried for Sae Ho's behind.)
When we return to Seoul,
let's become close pals and spend a lot of time.
Really.
Sure.
(Why am I like this? I laugh when Sae Ho is around.)
(Did he receive the same signal?)
You look like you're digging for roots.
Thanks for the gift. I'll have one for you later.
(This funny duo gives and takes.)
(This person is engrossed in an expeditionary habit of his own.)
We have travelled about 13km.
We have about 2km left, so we're about right here.
(He determines their location based on the distance travelled.)
At the very least, we're right here.
(Peeking as he passes by)
Over there.
You startled me.
We're over here, right?
(He asks in Korean.)
Yes, over here.
(He still replies.)
Yes, right here.
(This continues even as the camel does his business.)
We have to change course about right here.
It's necessary.
So, all things considered,
we're heading that way.
But there's nothing over there.
(This is a wide area.)
(Destination)
(In the direction we are headed,)
(there is nothing.)
That's right. I have a great idea.
It's very barren.
But it's fine once the sun sets.
We'll head a bit that way first...
and camp out.
Before, the sun comes out, we'll pierce straight through.
(A recap)
(If there is no shade,)
(let's go when the sun sets.)
(He means, let's go either in the afternoon of when it's dark.)
There he is.
Chief.
Mr. Cho.
We came a very long way.
Really?
I'm very proud. We came so far.
(Jin Hee begins with encouragement.)
We can go a day in advance.
- What? - We can go a day ahead of schedule.
- Can we put our bags down here? - Yes, you may.
- Is this spot, okay? Good. - Yes.
(The expeditionary crew is together for the first time in a while.)
It's fine for us to trail behind you.
But what should I say? I think it's best if we go together.
Then, we won't get anywhere.
We'll hardly be able to advance.
During the past two days,
you all probably got a good idea of your stamina.
You all did very well. But this time around,
I tried doing it my way.
- But you all followed. - You're right.
We came a very long way.
What is the total distance?
- Today? 7.5km. - Including yesterday's as well.
- Yesterday. - Around 7.8km.
- About 15km. - Almost about 16km.
I think we're about here.
That's right.
But we have to head in that direction.
We must, but it's completely barren.
We can't walk straight over that way.
But there is nothing to worry about. The sun is setting soon.
We'll rest a lot here. Once the sun sets...
Once the sun sets,
we'll eat quickly and get some sleep.
We'll just sleep early.
We'll wake up around 4am, eat a quick meal, and go.
Where are you planning on setting up the base camp?
About where those trees are.
After that, there's nothing.
That's okay.
(The trees provide the final shade at the entrance of the wasteland.)
Then, let's make that our objective.
Let's do that.
Then, we'll be able to reach our destination quickly.
- I feel better with a goal. - It's okay, right?
- It's good, right? - Yes.
(Sae Ho feels slightly better.)
(Jin Hee's proposed route.)
(1. The staff suggested an alternative course.)
(2. He plotted a new direct course to save time.)
(3. Get plenty of rest at their current resting spot.)
(4. They plan on reaching the trees by sunset and sleeping right away.)
(5. They leave before sunrise and escape the flatland before sunrise.)
Is it really the hill in that direction?
Which hill are you speaking of right now?
Isn't that entire line a hill?
You mean the little range over there?
(There is a wide hill range at the horizon.)
- Isn't that a hill? - But the distance...
- is quite far. - Right?
That is about a 10km distance from here.
(10km from here)
You mean over there? Over there in front of me?
If that's 10km...
- There's nothing there. - There's nothing.
Are there some trees between here and over there?
I can't see any trees.
- There are no trees this way. - It's 10km.
If it really is 10km from here...
We should at least wake up early in the morning and...
Yes, before the sun rises...
No, but it's not possible. I'll tell you why.
The most we can walk is 5km.
How are we going to rest in that empty plain?
In the scorching sun?
The empty area over there...
We have to cross that before the sun comes up no matter what.
No matter what.
Otherwise, we're going to get stuck in the middle.
(What we've crossed so far...)
(wasn't even the real desert.)
- We should go now. - We can stay or go.
We should go another kilometer.
(Let's not rest and start moving)
We need to reduce our total distance by a kilometer or so.
But looking at the time...
The sun falls at 6:30pm.
After the sun falls it takes 40 minutes to get dark.
That's 7:10pm.
We can walk another hour.
Let's walk for another hour.
- Let's make a move. - We have to walk speedily.
If we move quickly, we'll be able to move about 3km.
- Should we go for 3km? - The more we walk, the better.
(We've decided our goal)
- Let's start moving. - We'll rest there.
We don't have much time.
(No time to delay)
We're at the crossroads of our trip.
Will we be able to move 10km by next morning?
(And what if they fail?)
We're all going to die!
We're going to starve to death.
Like this.
I think we're going to make it if we walk at this pace.
(Don't become complacent.)
(We're at...)
(the world's most...)
(dry...)
(and burning hot land.)
(We face a real desert)
Let's move. We'll go this way.
(They start walking at 6:10pm.)
You have to keep your own pace. Don't try to match your speed to us.
Got it!
(The leader once again leads his members)
It really is 10km from here?
Yes, it is.
It's different from how it seems.
It doesn't look that way.
Right, but it's far.
(You can see the horizon, but you can't tell the distance.)
- I think we'll get there. - Can you get there?
Over there, until that cliff.
Until that ridge.
Until that ridge?
- It doesn't look that far off. - Then let's get it going.
Despite suffering from a mild fever earlier today,
he says he can make it to that ridge.
Good.
Walking the desert after 6pm...
Isn't too bad.
It's true that...
the weather affects our condition...
in so many ways.
(He brings back a memory)
It's incredible how we slept over there during the day.
- During the day? - Yes.
Sleeping there was really hard.
(Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow)
The breeze is cool and nice.
I just want to yell out loud.
(Screaming)
Let's go!
(Screaming)
Let's go!
(He gathers his energy)
(His hips still hurt)
- This place is nice. - What is this?
These are sea pebbles.
- All of a sudden? - There are pebbles.
- It feels like walking on a cloud. - What is this?
(The floor breaks like chips)
Let's hope there's a place like this over there.
- There's not much sand. - It's the same over there too.
It's going to be windy here. There's nothing that will block the wind.
For tonight...
We have to eat those food with heaters.
- The ones with heaters? - How do we start...
- a fire on this ground? - I see.
We can't.
Why is the leader going by himself?
Because of us.
Maybe he dislikes us.
He needs to be ahead so we can follow him.
He's left us behind.
He knows that we follow him.
(They want to know)
(Why is the leader moving so fast?)
(8 years ago)
Please hurry up.
Move slowly.
I've never ran this fast.
What?
- You've never ran? - Yes.
(First guess is complete faith.)
He has to go faster so we can follow him.
(Second guess is standing alone.)
After two days, we've become separated.
(Third guess is suspicion.)
Does he dislike us?
He has to go faster so we can follow him.
After two days, we've become separated.
- Does he dislike us? - Does he dislike us?
(The members start making assumptions about the leader...)
Don't run!
(The PD runs off to do some fact-checking)
Is he running?
(He couldn't go very far)
(Glance)
- Are you okay? - Yes.
If we don't move a lot today,
tomorrow's going to be really tough.
Of course, because we have to get there.
Because you're like a guide...
Honestly...
I feel a lot of responsibility.
- I'm really glad that... - Everything being fine?
everyone's been doing well.
But for this part of the crossing,
if we didn't decide on certain things for sure,
we are going to get into some real trouble.
(In front of danger,)
(the leader shows a certain strictness.)
I felt a certain kind of responsibility...
that I had to lead these four guys.
I was alone at the front, but I found what I needed to do.
I kept looking which direction would be best to go towards.
Where would be the best to travel?
Which direction would have the hardest land?
I was constantly checking at the front...
because it would get easier for the members behind me.
(On top of empty land)
(A person is completely visible)
(Meanwhile...)
This place is amazing.
This place would have been amazing in the day too.
You would die.
- You would faint. - You can't come during the day.
We would faint if we came during the day.
Yes.
I bet none of the current staff will be up for the next shoot.
If it's another desert, I'm going to be gone.
(Laughing)
Great.
Jin Hee!
Let's walk together now.
Okay.
How are you guys doing?
- Let's walk together now. - Okay.
- We got too far apart. - Okay.
This area is not going to be easy.
- Where do we go? - This way.
Where's our goal for today?
Do you see that over there?
If we get there...
You mean that car over there?
Yes, over there. A little to the left.
Let's go then.
Let's get there before it gets hot. The weather's nice right now.
(Continuing without rest)
The ground is okay for now. I'm not sure how it will be later.
- The ground is like a mud flat. - I'm tired.
It's a dry mud flat.
(A desert that resembles the sea)
- It's like going to the sea. - A dry mud flat.
(Leaving footprints on the sand)
This is art.
(7.6km until the destination)
(Tiring legs and heavy feet)
(Giving all they have...)
(while watching the setting sun.)
(Enamored by the light)
(They clear their minds of the thoughts they left in Seoul.)
(And the sun sets.)
(The leader is up front by himself.)
(He looks toward his members.)
I can see the stars now.
So many stars.
(He likes the stars.)
That's the Orion.
Do you see that?
- That's the Orion? - It's Orion.
(The stars of the desert)
(Reveal themselves)
Look at that. That's Big Dipper.
Big Dipper.
1, 2, 3...
(The desert's low humidity and lack of light allow stars to be visible.)
It's like the space.
He's like the Magus that comes out in the Bible.
Because of the camel?
It's like he's guided by the stars.
- Can you see the star over there? - Yes.
(Biblical Magi: Three wise men who came from the east of Palestine...)
(in order to celebrate the birth of Jesus)
(It's said they brought gold, frankincense, and myrrh as gifts.)
(Frankincense is a specialty of South Arabia including Oman.)
(A long time ago, the gifts for baby Jesus...)
(must have gone through the night of Arabia.)
(In the dark, 7pm)
Gosh, I'm exhausted.
I'm so tired.
Look at my feet. My feet, knees,
and back hurt.
- Tae Hyun. - Yes.
Walking all the way here, I can't stop thinking...
There's nothing around here, as you see.
You think we could've died if it was daytime, don't you?
Did you think the same?
- We would've been all dead. - If we were here during the day,
- it would have been... - We would've been so dead.
Do you know what we would have been doing if it was daytime?
We would be doing...
(They're shooting a variety show, but they talk about dying.)
Could you lie on the ground?
We would have dried up and died like that.
Just like that.
(Oh, no...)
I'm almost falling asleep now.
My back hurts.
I lied down for a second, and it was so comfortable.
Let's go.
- Is the light it? - We're almost there.
It's our basecamp.
(They can see the basecamp.)
Come quickly.
Tae Hyun.
Sae Ho.
- Jung Nam, over here. - We're almost there.
- Jin Hee. - Hey.
We're finally here.
- Good job, guys. - Goodness.
Great job.
- Good job. - We walked a lot.
- Great job.
- We walked so much today. - Good job, guys.
I think this evening was the best.
- Good work. - Do you feel all right?
- Good job. - Great work.
- We walked so much. - Good job, guys.
Thank you.
- It was nice. - Abdullah, thank you.
You did a great job.

(They need to get out of the basin before the sun rises.)
(I have a feeling we'll see something after this.)
(They refuse to follow the given route and pioneer their own way.)
(I'm so curious to see what is behind the ridge.)
(Will there be green trees...)
(behind the desolate field?)
(There's nothing.)
