What is Physical: 100 Season 1 about?
Physical: 100 is a South Korean reality show featuring Olympians, military professionals, weightlifters, and other top athletes from all over the nation. Contestants push their bodies to their limits through compelling games of elimination.

What we know about season 2 so far:
Barely anything is known about season 2 at this point, given Netflix have only just green-lit a sequel. However, this article over at The Hollywood Reporter confirms that season 2 will be raising the stakes further.
In an interview, the show’s creator and director, Jang Ho-gi, said this about the new series:
“I’m honored to meet a lot of contestants whom I feel are overqualified. And I’m also collaborating with many experts to make sure we have even more electrifying and well-designed quests that will leave audiences on the edge of their seats,” Jang adds. “I give you my word that we will be back with an all-new season that’s got everything taken up a notch for our global fans,” he says.
It would seem that there’s plenty more games on the horizon to sink our teeth into. Not only that, but with the SAG strike right now, Netflix are likely keen to get a second season up and running soon. Either way though, we’re excited to see another series for this one.
