Resolution criteria

The final three episodes of Physical: Asia will be available on Netflix on November 18, 2025. The winner will be determined by which country's team is declared champion after completing all challenges. Resolution will be based on the official Netflix broadcast and Netflix's official announcement of the winning nation. The winning team receives one billion Korean won ($700,000).

Background

Physical: Asia launched on October 28 with eight countries competing in several challenges that test participants' strength, endurance, willpower and strategy. A total of 48 athletes feature in the competition, six each from eight countries: South Korea, Japan, Thailand, Mongolia, Turkey, Indonesia, Australia and the Philippines. Star contestants include Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao, the only eight-division world champion in history, and Australian UFC middleweight champion Robert "The Reaper" Whittaker.

Philippines and Turkey have been eliminated while four remaining teams continue to battle for their spot in the finale. Australia and Japan advanced from the opening round of Quest 4, with Japan then outperforming Australia in the next stage, earning a direct path to the fifth quest. The death match features a 1,200-kg pillar push over 100 laps between Mongolia, Korea, and Australia, with the last team to fall behind being eliminated.

Considerations

The finale concludes on November 18 with episodes 10–12, meaning the final winner will only be revealed when these episodes air. The market cannot resolve until that date.
