"Physical: 100" winner Woo Jin Yong is facing criticisms after the Netflix survival show got caught up in a controversy.

After the finale episode was aired, the 9-episode reality series faced countless allegations, including manipulation claims regarding the last round.

Released on January 24, "Physical: 100" took the world by storm as Netflix introduced a hundred participants who would battle out to see who among them would win the 300 million KRW (245,000 USD).

Only the strongest, the fittest and someone who has strong stamina could win the game, and surprisingly, one of the underdogs Woo Jin Yong became the first winner of the survival-reality show.

Unfortunately, he is currently making headlines after first runner-up Jung Hae Min exposed the truth behind the alleged manipulation.

Olympic cyclist Jung Hae Min breaks his silence after a rumor sparked that the last challenge was done multiple times and accused the production team of manipulating the game.

During his interview with news portal Ilyo, the athlete said that he initially wanted to keep things to himself and accept the result of the show but what prompted him to speak up is Netflix's explanation behind the claims.

It comes after the production team of the hit show mentioned in an interview that no re-match occurred. Moreover, producer and showrunner Jang Ho Gi also pointed out that the allegation was a lie.

In Woo Jin Yong's recent Instagram post, fans and viewers took to the comment section and criticized the contestant for stealing the trophy from Jung Hae Min.


In a post where the CrossFitter posed alongside fellow participants Choo Sung Hoon, Kim Min Cheol, and more, along with a caption that says, "The best choice during filming was to meet this team," the viewers couldn't help but call out the winner.

In the comment section, some mentioned how Woo Jin Yong doesn't deserve to be called the winner.

In addition, one fan even commented to "put down the fake honor and return the trophy and honor to the real winners."

As of this writing, the "Physical: 100" winner is yet to address speculation and allegations towards him.
