Yul Kwon sole survivor of Survivor Cook Islands
Not only has Yul been named on of the Sexiest Men Alive by People magazine, is known for his brains with degrees from both Stanford and Yale, but he is also now known as the Sole Survivor of Survivor Cook Islands, and is a cool mil richer. And not only that, he had to do it by beating two others in the final vote by the jury, not just one as has been the case in all the previous Survivors.
Kwon beat Oscar “Ozzy” Lusth in a 5-4 vote. The third person in that final vote - Rebekah “Becky” Lee - didn’t even manage to score a single vote from the jury.
And in an interesting note, the season started full of controversy because of the racially divided teams, but at the end it marked the most racially diverse makeup of survivors the game had ever seen. For the first time, a caucasian was not among the final two (or three, in this case). In fact, the final four did not include any of the caucasian members - the four consisted of an African American, Mexican-born man and two Asian-Americans.
