JTBC has been steadily introducing new contents in units of the 8th episode and seeking new possibilities for entertainment through novel ideas and materials. In the second half of this year, a variety of programs will be launched, including new plans and upgrades to existing formats.
First of all, the lecture battle show 'History Storytellers', which will premiere at 8:50 p.m. on September 4, will start. Seo Jang-hoon will be the MC, Choi Tae-sung, Sun Kim, Kim Ji-yoon, and Shim Yong-hwan, Korea's leading historical speakers will have a fierce story competition on stage. The difference between JTBC's lecture show is the method of determining the 'best storyteller' in a battle format beyond simple knowledge transfer.
A new reality project 'My House for Same-Day Delivery' is also eye-catching based on a mobile modular house. It is a fresh format in which actors Kim Sung-ryeong, Ha Ji-won, Jang Young-ran, and dancer Gabi appear and experience local life by experiencing daily life in 'My Own House'.
The 8th pilot will also attempt to capture the lives of celebrity couples in rural areas. It depicts a pleasant and honest couple's story through the realistic life of the couple at a house in the countryside, away from the city.
On top of that, 'One Meal Show', which was acclaimed for its pilot broadcast once, will return with an upgraded appearance. The program, which was loved for the combination of Kim Hee-sun and Tak Jae-hoon's hosting and the dishes of famous chefs, will deliver warm emotions and unpredictable laughter at the same time.
JTBC said "The new entertainment show will also be presented first in the 8th episode and determine whether it will be organized regularly based on audience reactions" and "We plan to build a more complete entertainment lineup through various experiments and feedback."
