The Traitors' Eric Nam shared his real reason for not flipping on fellow Traitor Rob Rausch, who ended up betraying the K-pop singer to win the $220,800 prize pot for himself. In addition to having a "different line in the sand" compared to Rob, Eric was concerned about what viewers would take away from his first American reality TV appearance. "I didn't want my introduction to America to be a conniving, backstabbing liar," he told E! News in an exclusive interview. "That was the one thing I was very cognizant about." Besides, the 37-year-old saw Rob, 27, as the "Father Traitor" for having recruited him to turn against the Faithfuls shortly before the Emmy-winning Peacock series' season four finale. "I was like, 'I'm down to win this with Rob,'" Eric continued, explaining that it "didn't really feel right" to betray the ‘Love Island USA’ alum so soon after his recruitment. "Imagine if I crossed Rob. Going back to the image part, people would literally hate me." ‘The Traitors’ is streaming on Peacock.
