Battle Trip (배틀트립)

(Lee Hwi Jae, Special Host Lee Ji Hye)

Traveling is like a battle.

- Battle Trip. - Battle Trip.

Today's special host is...

Lee Ji Hye. Welcome.

Hello. Nice to meet you.

I went to Chiang Mai...

in Battle Trip.

And with Boom, I went to bra...

Gosh, I'm sorry.

- What did you say? - Watch your pronunciation.

I'm sorry. I went to Boracay too.

You wanted to swim, so you wore a swimsuit.

- But Boom took you to a mountain. - Right.

So you went up the mountain in a swimsuit.

- Right. - I remember that.

(April 7, 2018, Episode 86, a mountain in Boracay)

(Boracay, mountain, valley, bikini, a surprising combination)

Most importantly, you can't wear a bikini.

I think Southeast Asian countries are...

great vacation spots...

even for those who go on a trip for the first time.

It's not so far.

- The flight is short. - People are kind.

- It's close. - People are kind.

- And it's cheap. - It's a lot of bang for the buck.

It really is.

So today, Battle Trip...

will show...

opposite extremes...

of Asian countries.

- Opposite extremes? - Today,

there will be a place we've never been to.

- That's right. - A new place?

- Here are our four trip designers. - Please come on out.

They are so pretty.

First of all,

I'm very excited to see them.

They are princes of daily dramas.

A lot of middle-aged women recognize you, right?

Yes. Especially in restaurants.

They give me more side dishes.

- That's right. They do that. - I'm grateful.

And about Seo Do Young.

You mostly play...

weak characters who suffer a lot.

- Are you competitive? - Yes.

That's not good.

Why?

- This is Battle Trip. - Right.

I guess we will be seeing your competitive spirit.

Before watching the opposing team's trip,

when you think about your trip,

do you think you will win?

I'm 100 percent sure we'll win.

- 100 percent? - 100 percent sure?

- It's done. - Hang on.

What about you guys?

- We're 200 percent sure. - 200 or 300 percent.

They don't want to lose.

They are competitive too.

This isn't your first time in Battle Trip, right?

This is my third time here.

- What about your winning rate? - Really?

I won 100 percent.

That's amazing.

Without tasting the bitterness of defeat,

people can't improve.

I guess you will get a chance to improve today.

All right.

Like I said, they went on trips to opposite extremes of Asia.

The model team.

Where did you go to?

It's been closed to tourists...

for the pollution issue for a while.

You know it, right?

- That place? - Yes.

After six months of self-purification,

it was born again...

- as a clean and pure island. - Right.

- We went to Boracay. - We went to Boracay.

Boracay.

Look at the picture.

It was really clean.

- It really was. - It is amazing.

I went to Boracay too. Do you remember that?

Do you remember this song?

Cay, Cay, it's Boracay

Do you remember this song?

- Yes. - It was very popular.

- Yes. - It was very popular.

It was a hit.

Jae Hwang laughed for the first time.

(Jae Hwang laughed for the first time.)

"Who is she?"

Do you remember this song?

He laughed out loud.

You like things like this?

I can sing it again for you.

- I'll sing it when you're bored. - He likes it.

When I went to Boracay,

it wasn't that clean.

The color of sea is different.

For me, it was...

the best Southeast Asian country I've been to.

I'm not lying.

- You're not supposed to lie. - I'm serious.

I was actually curious about Boracay though.

About how clean it is?

I wonder how clean it has become.

Because it was closed.

Right.

Good. Even if it's clean,

Boracay is just Boracay.

What?

Where did you go, Do Young and Jae Hwang?

When I told people where I was going,

they asked if we could...

really go on a trip there.

I'm even more curious now.

It's a mysterious country unknown to the world.

It has Mother Nature that you can't even imagine.

- Where is it? - Where is it?

It's the giant of Central Asia.

- We went to Kazakhstan. - Kazakhstan.

- Kazakhstan? - Kazakhstan?

- My gosh. - What's that?

Gosh, look at the picture.

- What's that? - It looks unfamiliar.

We're going there for the first time in Battle Trip.

It doesn't even look like the Earth.

It looks like a filming site.

The place has a real retro mood there.

If you go there,

you'll be very popular.

(You'll be fascinated by the charm of Kazakhstan.)

I think the picture says everything.

- Isn't it amazing? - I was very impressed...

by the beautiful nature. You can appreciate Mother Nature.

You can see the nature of many different countries...

all together in this place...

- at once. - The nature.

I have a question.

I wonder what they ate in Kazakhstan.

- You're right. - Me too.

We enjoyed good beer.

- They have great beer. - Their beer is good?

Kazakhstan is an upland place.

There's perpetual snow. And they make beer...

with the snow.

- That's powerful. - I want to pour it on my head.

It sounds amazing.

We said they're opposite extremes...

because Boracay had so many tourists...

that it was even closed for a while...

while Kazakhstan still remains mysterious.

It will be hard to decide today.

So we have our judges, 100 people from the audience.

Welcome.

I'm really curious about Kazakhstan.

- Let's save it for later. - When you eat naengmyeon,

you eat the egg at the last moment.

- Really? - It's the most important one.

- Let's watch your trip first. - Okay.

- We're confident. - Boracay.

It's not easy...

to get into Boracay. It's a long flight.

Exactly. You should take a light aircraft and a boat.

It's a little hard.

But you know what it's like. If it's hard to get there...

It means the place looks beautiful.

It feels even better when you get there.

How did you get there?

We took airplanes, buses, and boats.

We need to do all that,

but the prices are cheap there.

And they have...

- great resorts and hotels there. - That's true.

Then it must be hard to reserve a hotel room.

Since its reopening,

the booking rate has increased...

by over 200 percent.

So I was a little worried.

But we found out there are some private tour packages.

And Jung Sun and I booked a tour package there.

A private tour package.

It's a good option.

If you don't have enough time to prepare for a trip,

you can just book a tour package.

- That's true. - I guess you had some free time.

It was a little hard to get there.

So we wanted to relax and get some rest...

while appreciating Boracay.

So we had this Relaxing Day.

And after relaxing for a day,

we had this Playful Day...

- on the second day. - Relaxing and Playful?

- I see. - You should pronounce it carefully.

- Right. - If you are planning to Boracay,

you can watch our trip for your reference.
