Penguins, rhinos, hot air balloons...'Earth Mabul 3' broke the ratings with the end of real experience entertainment.
ENA 'World Travel 3' opened a new horizon in travel entertainment by providing extreme immersion.

In the fourth episode, which aired on the 12th, experience travel stories from different continents of 'Kwakpawon' (Kwak Tube, Pani Bottle, Wonji) were developed in earnest, with viewership reaching up to 2.4% per minute. (Courtesy of Nielsen Korea)

Kwak Tube's 'Jungle Survival' challenge was the scene that received the hottest response in this episode. The high-intensity mission to spend the night with wild animals in a tower set up in the middle of the jungle at Chitwan National Park in Nepal created tension that made my hands sweat just by looking at it. In particular, the scene where Kwak Tube, who is afraid of heights, overcomes his limitations and faces rhinos, crocodiles, and wild birds is overwhelming. "The real jungle was more like a variety show than a variety show."Like the viewer's response to ", the reality beyond the documentary unfolded.




Australia's Pani Bottle spent time traveling through Tasmania in a camper van, interacting with nature. In particular, the return scene of 'Little Penguin' returning home at night after hunting in the sea brought cheers to the MCs and the studio. The encounter between the parent penguin and the baby was 'healing' itself, and Pani Bottle also admired "I came to Tasmania to see this scene". On top of that, his general review of 'Australia is by far the number one country to live in' formed a consensus with the sincere message of a long-time traveler.

Turkiye's Wonji created an all-time entertainment point in Istanbul called 'Unlawful Ear Cleaning Experience'. All the cast members were surprised by the unfamiliar procedure of lighting the tool in their ears, and the response of "This is not filial piety, but filial piety" burst into the broadcast's best laughter. At the Cappadocia, a travel destination that arrived afterwards, a tour of hot air balloons and a cave hotel experience provided a fantasy-like view, adding to the impression. "It's like an alien planet."As Wonji said, the visuals that stimulate the travel bucket list captivated the master bedroom.
