The Challenge has people you learn about for being on The Challenge, not people you would think beforehand when you hear about a show like that. So for instance, you wouldn't see Terry Crews, really buff guy, on a show like this as he wouldn't risk the hit to his image of losing. (sorry... Terry Crews is an incredibly nice guy it seems, his name just popped into my mind immediately).

The Challenge literally had multiple seasons of their own contestants going up against professional athletes.

Select athletes. It's like having an exhibition chess world championship, but the top players not coming out because they have nothing to gain and everything to lose.

His point was that with Challenge 100, it was an collection of famous people whether they were athletes/personalities/fitness throughout korea. The challenge is mostly people who were famous through real world or road rules that evolved into "the challenge"
