La Isla: El Reality[]

When arriving at Low Beach for the first time, Juan quickly developed a bond with Hilario Gerez and Julio César Frías, the other two men in his Desconocidos Tribe. In the first three weeks, him and his tribe were able to win Immunity several times, granting them the power of being Judges for the week, and here he showcased his strategic chops, by pushing for the tribe to save perceived weak contestants, such as Celia Lora and Julia Orayen, and it was this last one that turned out to be of great effect, as that choice managed to the Famosos Tribe's Trial.

After the Famosos Tribe dissolved, Juan's Tribe chose Yanilen Díaz to be part of their Tribe, and although they had a new member, they couldn't beat the Celebridades Tribe in the Immunity Challenge. He then competed in the Final Challenge, but came up short, as Julio César managed to win the challenge to earn Immunity. After this, Juan targeted Lourdes, who, even though won the Captains' Challenge earlier in the week, he thought she was the weakest member. And at the Trial, Lourdes received the majority of the votes, but, the Celebridades tribe chose to save her, meaning that the vote would be reset. And in this new voting round, most of the tribe voted for him, including ally Hilario, thus sealing his fate and becoming the fifth person to be voted out.
