It has been announced that Ricky Kim will be leaving 'Laws of the Jungle 2', where he had been a longtime cast member.

According to a representative for 'Jungle', Ricky Kim will not be participating in the upcoming South American expedition, scheduled to be aired following the end of their current trek to Madagascar.

"Due to the schedule, Ricky Kim was not able to participate," said a representative for SBS. "Although it is saddening, we are looking for someone to replace him on the show."

"Although 'Jungle' is popular, it is very strenuous and takes up a lot of time, so it's hard to find someone new," he continued. "We will put together a cast soon and introduce them to the viewers."

Representatives have also confirmed that Ryu Dam will not be participating in the South American trek. Kim Byung Man and Noh Woo Jin are currently the only two members confirmed for the upcoming filming in South America.
