In ‘Earth Monopoly World Travel 3’, the stars of the best one minute, Kwak Tube and Lee Jang-woo, finally kick off their journey in Egypt.

In the previous broadcast of ENA’s ‘Earth Monopoly World Travel 3’ (hereafter ‘Earth Monopoly 3’), Kwak Tube and Lee Jang-woo captivated viewers with their food adventures in Egypt. Although they were unable to enter due to the closing time of the pyramid ticket office, the scene of them enjoying the traditional Egyptian dish ‘Hamam’ (roasted pigeon) recorded a peak viewership rating of 2.8%, earning the title of ‘Best One Minute’. While they missed the must-see pyramids and Sphinx in Egypt, their joy during dinner just two hours after finishing a six-person lunch was enough to elicit laughter from the audience.

In a pre-released video ahead of the live broadcast on the 3rd, Kwak Tube and Lee Jang-woo are seen heading to the Sahara, the largest tropical desert in the world and a representative landmark of Egypt. The two embarked on a desert tour in Siwa and the surrounding area. As Lee Jang-woo expressed, “I feel like I’m going to faint in the car” due to hunger, the guide offered him a local snack, dates. The two, amazed by the sweetness of the dates they tasted for the first time, finally entered the majestic Sahara Desert.

The highlight of the desert trip is undoubtedly the exhilarating drive in an off-roader vehicle. The guide does not slow down, climbing and descending the massive sand dunes, providing a thrilling experience, and Kwak Tube and Lee Jang-woo cannot hide their astonishment. However, their food adventure continues even in the Sahara Desert. Captured screaming, “We’re going to flip over! I’m sorry!” while putting dates in their mouths, they bring laughter to the viewers.

In the preview video for episode 7, Lee Jang-woo is shown visiting the oasis in the desert that he wanted to see, the Siwa salt lake. In this place where emerald waters ripple in the middle of the desert, Kwak Tube, who is afraid of water and cannot swim, gathers his courage to jump in. It raises anticipation for what kind of episodes Lee Jang-woo, surpassing the food adventure fairy, and Kwak Tube, as ‘true travelers’, will create together during their unique trip to Egypt.

‘Earth Monopoly 3’ episode 7 will air today (3rd) at 7:50 PM.
