Won Ji and Kim Jong-min showcased the essence of a 'true fan trip' in Mallorca, Spain, while Kwak Tube and Lee Joon indulged in Romania's unique culture with a wild game mukbang and a Dracula-themed tour.
First, the 'Last Chance' team, Won Ji and Kim Jong-min, took a ferry to the beautiful island of Mallorca, loved by Europeans. Drawing on their experiences from '1 Night 2 Days', they confidently predicted wave conditions and showcased their knowledge about the island, proving the 'Kim Jong-min genius theory'. The first itinerary prepared by 'Kim Jong-min fan' Won Ji was the famous Dragon Caves. The stalactites formed over 5.3 million years and the blue, mysterious underground lake left them in awe.
The next schedule was a yacht tour specially prepared by Won Ji, filled with fan enthusiasm. The two were momentarily flustered by the staff's explanation that they had to drive the yacht themselves, but after learning how to operate it, they set sail across the Mediterranean. Finally, a scene that peaked the 'fan tour' arrived.
They sang a duet of the hit song 'Our Dream', the OST of the animation 'One Piece', which is also Won Ji's favorite song, on the sea. At that moment, Won Ji, who became Koyote's Shin Ji, fully enjoyed the thrilling time as her dream came true.
While Won Ji and Kim Jong-min continued their smooth sailing, the 'Bromance' team, Kwak Tube and Lee Joon, faced a rocky start. They barely managed to board the train to Brasov, the center of the Dracula legend, just one minute before departure. Even in such a tense moment, the mukbang brothers did not forget to express their hunger and headed straight to a 50-year-old traditional restaurant selling a 'Bear Makase Set' made of wild game upon arrival.
Although there was no expected meat grilling fire show and the texture and taste were unusual, Lee Joon cleaned his plate and enjoyed the culture of Romania itself. Additionally, the two stayed at the 'lowest price accommodation' as part of the fourth round golden key mission. Despite the terrible room conditions, they showed their 'natural person' adaptability by saying, "People should live in nature."
The two finally embarked on the highlight of their Romanian trip, the Dracula tour, where Lee Joon's over-immersion caused constant laughter. Lee Joon, an experienced actor who played a vampire in the drama 'Vampire Detective', became so engrossed in the situation that he lost himself in the role.
At the Dracula restaurant, he wore a cape and tore meat like a vampire, and during the private tour of Bran Castle, known as Dracula's Castle, he outperformed the guide who introduced himself as 'Vlad Dracula III' with his realistic acting. While the embarrassment fell on Kwak Tube, the guide, excited by the unusual guest, engaged in an acting battle with Lee Joon and even added explanations that weren't originally part of the tour.
Meanwhile, the '7 Nights 8 Days' team, Pani Bottle and Cha Tae-hyun, experienced the peak of extreme activities, reaching the height of dopamine. First, during their layover in Zermatt, Switzerland, they challenged paragliding. Cha Tae-hyun was left speechless by the breathtaking view of the Alps at an altitude of 3000m.
After a fulfilling layover trip, the two arrived at their original destination, Amsterdam, Netherlands, where their extreme adventures continued endlessly.
This time, they stayed at the 'Crane Hotel' obtained through the Dream Pass. This hotel, built on a 50m high industrial crane, rotates 360 degrees according to the wind, making the accommodation itself an activity. The skywalk installed at the top of the hotel was another highlight. Dopamine addict Pani Bottle boldly stepped into the heights once again, and Cha Tae-hyun fearlessly followed behind. After two days of being in the sky from paragliding to crane accommodation, the anticipation exploded for what extreme course they would unleash their dopamine on the ground.
