The popular reality show I-Land2 episode 8 will be released this week. After an intense elimination, twelve contestants have qualified for part 2 and will compete to reach the finale.
Mnet and Black Label’s new reality show I-Land 2:N/a started with 24 contestants. Initially, the competition’s challenges included group missions and individual scoring. Eun Chae and Yuiko were the first contestants to bid goodbye to the show in episode 4. In the next episode, two participants, Kang Jiwon and Nana, left the show after scoring the lowest.
Before part 2 began, six rookies aced the face-to-face mission and went to the second part of the show based on judges’ votes. The fate of the rest of the participants depended on global i-mate votes, and six members were lucky enough to reach part 2.
