Disney+ announced that it will unveil a new type of entertainment content project 'Weekly Entertainment Hall: A Comprehensive Entertainment Playground for a Week' from the 22nd. Disney+'s new five-day mid-form entertainment series features five entertainment titles with different formats and concepts that can be enjoyed in a fixed format for each day of the week. Considering the rhythm and immersion unique to entertainment, new episodes will be released every day at 8 a.m. (Korean time) from Friday to Tuesday, the beginning of the weekend. The series will continue until the end of this year.
As it is the first configuration to be tried, it contains strategic planning intentions to further diversify the content portfolio. It is a mid-form format of 25-30 minutes per episode, targeting a gap between traditional entertainment with a long runtime and short-form content under 10 minutes. Reflecting the tastes of the MZ generation and digital native viewers, it delivers short and intense laughter and fun, and proposes a new content experience. The release of new episodes at 8 a.m. also reflects the recent trend of content consumption, and it was intended to provide a flexible viewing environment where you can enjoy entertainment at any time you want according to your daily life.
Choi Yeon-woo, Director of Local Content, Walt Disney Company Korea, stated that "Weekly Entertainment Center' is a project that is implemented in a short but full format that entertainment viewers want to offer a more colorful and enriching entertainment experience through different attempts every day" and "We plan to continue planning Disney+'s own flexible and creative content to meet the diverse consumption patterns of our viewers in the future.'
A new routine that adds entertainment to the audience's daily lives is proposed in 'Weekly Amusement Park', which advocates a different format and fun every day. The five mid-form entertainment titles of 'Weekly Entertainment' vary in format, world view, and tone, but only one thing in common is that it guarantees short but definite fun.

Muksa variety 'Bulli Hills' rewrites the history of mukbang. The members of the top 1 percent super-luxury size 'Baebulian Hills' of six members _ Seo Jang-hoon, Miracle, Shin Dong, Lee Kyu-ho, Satire, and Na Seon-wook _ are citizens of the exoplanet 'Baebulian Hills', which can only return to their hometowns by eating high-calorie foods. The appearance of those who carry out missions beyond imagination due to their heavy and heavy size gives a big laugh. Producer Kim Ki-tae of Dengchi Survival Mukjjjipa, writers Yuk So-young, and Kim Bo-ram will once again join forces to present a new concept of entertainment.
'Short" is an ultra-short interview entertainment by Yoo Byung-jae-sik that puts YouTube sensibility on bone humor and consists of two series. The first series 'Why Did You Buy?' is an extension of the content that was greatly loved on Yoo Byung-jae's YouTube, and is a consumption analysis talk show that draws infinite empathy. The follow-up series 'Lonely Interview' is an Um Geun-jin (Strict, Serious, and Serious) talk show that ends when you laugh, and each episode will bring unpredictable laughter with the dizzying and flashy talk of a new person and Yoo Byung-jae.
Lastly, the chef's aunt's house, which visits the hidden old store of top chefs in Korea, is a healing entertainment that summons food, people, and precious memories that have permeated in the meantime, and is a new concept of mukbang that introduces tips only from chefs who enjoy restaurants. Four chefs, Kim Min-sung, David Lee, Lim Tae-hoon and Yoon Nam-no, along with eating icon Yoon Doo-joon, invite top chefs as guests in each episode to tell the friendly story of delicious food as well as chemistry with restaurant aunts. Along with the moment when the taste of the aunt's hands captivates the chef's taste, it also captures the documentary sensibility that takes out the sincerity deep in the alley.
Disney+'s new concept entertainment project 'Weekly Entertainment Center' is available not only in Korea but also in eight Asian countries, including Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand.
