Mr. Mongolia Galbadrakh Badarch and Mr. Peru Manuel Illich


The Mister World 2010 contestants spent their Friday morning learning taekwondo (跆拳道) which is the national sport of South Korea.

They had lessons with one of Korea's topnotch taekwondo master and were treated with a wonderful display of the said martial art from Korea's best taekwondo students at the Bulguk-sa Temple in Gyeongju.

Mr. Peru Manuel Illich and Mr. Czech Republic Josef Karas were declared the best from their respective teams and won Taekwondo titles.

Afterwards, they've got to relax a bit at Gyeongju Hilton Hotel.

You know what? It's been a very busy week for the candidates that in just 3 days, they've also been to 3 different hotels.

This afternoon, all contestants are scheduled to go back to Incheon and prepare for tomorrow's important event, which is to volunteer for the Habitat for Humanity International. They're going to be "construction workers" for a day! Exciting!
