Life is Easier If You're Handsome novel Chapter 287

Before the mission was revealed.

The first thing the viewers saw—

ㄴOh, people are coming in

ㄴAre those the contestants?

ㄴLooks like they stand in front of their own torso?

It was a scene of contestants chatting as they found their respective torsos.

With 300 people in total, it was impossible to show everyone like in the teaser.

So, they aired pre-interviews of the standouts, introducing their professions and hinting at what kind of performance they might show.

As a result, viewers would usually—

ㄴOh? This guy’s kinda...

ㄴLooks strong

ㄴMight actually make ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) for a good match

—carry a decent amount of anticipation.

Some would even become fans.

They’d get emotionally invested.

But right now, things were far from “usual.”

ㄴIs Kim Donghu coming out last?

ㄴDa Dong Hu, is it you again

ㄴEveryone’s blatantly gawking at Kim Donghu’s torso 😂

ㄴIsn’t this too much favoritism? He’s standing alone in the center with spotlight;

ㄴ“This is what real physicality looks like” < That’s way too obvious;

ㄴThe producers are pushing him, what do you expect 😂

ㄴMad your country’s not featured?😏

ㄴOh, you're from that country?😆

<Physical 300> didn’t have many Korean contestants to begin with.

It was like the PD had gone mad wanting a pure physical showdown.

They dragged in everyone around the world known for their physique.

Naturally, once sorted by results, Koreans were few and far between.

And even among those few Koreans, none were really being called a winner candidate—until Kim Donghu suddenly popped up.

ㄴHurry up and show Kim Donghu!!!

ㄴStill, the others all look intense 😮

ㄴCan he even win this? Was it a mistake to make this a Korean show;;

ㄴRight? But damn, the contestants are savage 😂

ㄴGood that he’s getting attention, but I’m worried about the result.

People were split between excitement and anxiety.

Sure, Kim Donghu was incredible—but the other contestants’ résumés weren’t exactly ignorable either.

But then.

—“A candidate to win? Who do I think that is? Hmm, they all seem weaker than me... But if I had to pick someone—”

Kim Donghu?

One name consistently appeared in the pre-interviews of the top contenders.

—“Do you think anyone's stronger than me? Physicality is power! Obviously me! But if I had to choose... Kim Donghu.”

It was.

—“A balanced build... in that aspect, as of now... hmm, Kim Donghu, I suppose.”

Kim Donghu.

It made sense, actually.

ㄴHmm?

ㄴWhy are they picking Kim Donghu?

ㄴDidn’t expect that 😮

To Koreans, it was a surprising answer.

That was because of an image gap.

In East Asia—specifically in Korea—Kim Donghu was seen as an actor.

But to the rest of the world, he was a boxer first.

No matter how amazing his acting was, or how great his movies were—the intensity of Tarzan couldn’t beat the image burned into 200 million people from that boxing match.

The footage from that fight was still circulating.

Some analysts were still studying Kim Donghu’s boxing style.

And there was another, more subtle reason.

“Can’t pick another Western guy.”

“You think I’m gonna name a guy from the rival country next door?”

“Hell no, I’d never choose you.”

In interviews like this, they simply didn’t want to mention rival neighbors.

Who benefits from that?

Anyway.

For various reasons, Kim Donghu was the silent favorite.

And when he finally showed up at the end—you could feel the shift in the air.

ㄴWow look at everyone’s eyes 😂

ㄴAs soon as Kim Donghu appeared, all the chatter stopped

ㄴAnd wow 😳 he doesn’t get overshadowed even among the juiced-up guys

ㄴYo bro ever pulled a plane with your bare hands

ㄴYo bro could literally beat someone to death

ㄴYo bro is Batman

ㄴYo bro can eat for 17 hours straight

ㄴWhy is all of this actually true though 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

<Physical 300> official.

Owner of the perfect torso.

That man, Kim Donghu, appeared.

Immediately, the screen in front of them lit up.

The rules for the pre-test—long-distance running—were explained.

ㄴ100 people per group, 3 groups 😳

ㄴGroup A has Kim Donghu and Kade Walker

ㄴOh so this is how they measure the time?

ㄴIf they run this 3 rounds, that’s basically an hour of running

ㄴLegend 😮

As soon as the explanation ended, the groups were split.

And without a second of delay, the long-distance run began.

BEEP!

At the signal, contestants began running in formation.

ㄴAt the start, it’s better to stay in line

ㄴ👍 gotta conserve energy for 3 rounds 👍

ㄴAnyone sprinting now is an idiot 😂

ㄴWhat an idiot 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
