Super idol rewrites the script

On May 20, the series became a gold award-winner in the series-documentary category at the United States' 46th Telly Awards.

Notably, his first encounter with climbing during production sparked a lasting passion, one he continues to pursue in the series' following season.

The new season, recently aired on Tencent Video, follows Wang on a six-week North American RV (recreational vehicle) road trip. Along the way, he trains at climbing spots, practicing disciplines such as traditional climbing, aid climbing, and deep-water soloing.

All of this builds toward the journey's ultimate goal — to complete a multiday ascent on the Liberty Cap's massive rock face in Yosemite National Park.

"Making this documentary is a great way to achieve work-life balance. I'm doing what I love while also working," Wang says.
