First-gen idol variety shows were seriously on another level, wow
First-gen idol variety had stars braving flaming rings, circus stunts, and wild crossings—the old-school scale was seriously intense.

Jun Jin really was on the verge of life and death after injuring his head on Dream Team. The doctor said he might not make it and that the night would be critical.
Now that I think about it, it was seriously brutal. They'd do missions in 99 seconds lol, go on shows like Boyard Expedition, and all that. Insane.
1TYM had a regular strongman segment where they pulled a truck or something by biting down on a rope with their teeth.
