Physical 100 Episode 7 featured eliminations and the start of a new quest

Episode 7 of Physical 100 featured the cast members continuing with their third quest. Allied team members had to drag the ship to its destination in the least amount of time. Choo Sung-hoon and Jo Jin-hyeong's, and Yun Sung-bin and Ma Sun-ho's team had already completed their challenge.

Jang Eun-sil and Kim Sang-wook's team were initially shocked at the scale of the challenge and faced several obstacles as they were also considered to be weaker than their fellow teams. They, however, promised to work hard and successfully completed the challenge with teamwork and communication.

Elimination results of the team quest soon followed on Physical 100 Episode 7. Choo Sung-hoon and Jo Jin-hyeong's team placed first, while Yun Sung-bin and Ma Sun-ho came second. After lagging for just over two minutes, Jang Eun-sil and Kim Sang-wook placed last and were thus eliminated.

Eliminated members include: Jang Eun-sil, Seo Ha-yan, Miho, Park Hyung-geun, Yang Hak-seon, Kim Sang-wook, Lee Jun-myeong, Choi Sung-hyuk, Seong Chi-hyun, and Sim Eu-ddeum. In an emotional segment, all of them broke their cement busts and bid farewell to the others, leaving only 20 members to battle it out in the competition.

As the remaining contestants relaxed, The Mystery Voice announced that only five would compete in the final quest, leaving 15 of them eliminated from the competition after the fourth challenge. This left the competitors in shock, with many of them already dreading and predicting going home.

The fourth quest was a team delegate match, which consisted of five games. They had to select one delegate from each squad to enter each match, following which four members would compete against each other and only one would survive. Three from each game would be eliminated, making the total count to 15.

The theme of the fourth quest on Physical 100 was ancient mythology. Check out which games the contestants had to participate in:

1. The Punishment of Atlas - Contestants had to hold up a big rock and stay still until there's one left standing.
2. The Fire of Prometheus - Players had to run on a repetitive obstacle course until one comes last to take the torch.
3. The Wings of Icarus - Contestants had to continuously climb up a rope until one person is left.
4. The Punishment of Sisyphus - Competitors had to roll a 100 kg boulder up and down a hill until the last person.
5. The Tail of Ouroboros - A circular catch-the-tail game where contestants had to keep running until they eliminated the person in front by tagging them. The one player left without being tagged would be crowned the winner.

Each Physical 100 team punched in their choice of game. The episode ended on a cliffhanger after Kim Kang-min, Shin Bo-mi-rae, Kim Sik, and Jo Jin-hyeong began to compete in the first one.
