TV CHOSUN Jungle Survival ‘Survival King: Tribal War’ Kim Byung-man forgets about survival and focuses on building a ‘national team’ house to survive together in the jungle.

On the 14th, ‘Survival King: Tribal War’, the jungle team, physical team, military team, and national team return to their respective survival sites after the first day of survival. However, the national team still did not have a house, and there was no place to lie down comfortably due to the bugs that came up in the humid weather. Team leader Park Tae-hwan, who sensed a crisis, went to see Kim Byung-man of the ‘jungle team’ for help without hesitation.

Although they are the opposing team, Kim Byung-man, a jungle survival expert, visits the national team‘s survival site, which is the enemy camp(?), without hesitation. Kim Byung-man, who drew up a blueprint in his head within 3 seconds of looking around the survival site, recommended building a tree house using the terrain, saying, “It gets better the higher you go.” When the national team was flustered and said, “How...?” at the recommendation of a two-story house, Kim Byung-man said, “I’ll do it,” and climbed up a tree himself and started building(?) a house.

While Kim Byung-man was building other people‘s houses, the ’jungle team‘s’ survival site was also a barren wasteland with no house or place to rest. Kim Byung-man, who started building a house in earnest past 1 AM, said, “We should be resting, but we do contract work and build houses... We are a ‘jungle loving group (Jungsamo)’ that we do not compete but because we like it,” and teased his younger colleagues Jung Ji-hyun and Kim Dong-jun who were sawing and chopping wood in the early morning. Kim Dong-jun then said, “We are not the jungle team, we are the ‘contract team’,” and found the team‘s identity. The Jungle Team, who started building a house at dawn while everyone else was asleep, having lost energy due to the other teams’ work, are drawing attention as to when they will be able to rest.

‘Survival King: Tribal Wars’ will air on Monday the 14th at 10 p.m. It will be released every Tuesday on the global OTT Netflix.
