KBS 2TV’s New Reality Show ‘Gaojeong’ to Feature Lee Min-jung and Star-Studded Cast

KBS 2TV is set to premiere its brand-new reality variety show, ‘Gaojeong’ ("가는정 오는정 이민정"), on Friday, May 16 at 9:50 PM KST. This uniquely heartwarming program explores the lives of rural residents through the lens of mobile convenience store deliveries and overnight stays, where celebrities connect and converse with locals.

Lee Min-jung takes the lead as the main host, joined by an eclectic lineup that includes variety show veteran Boom, along with actors Ahn Jae-hyun, Kim Jung-hyun, and Kim Jae-won. Together, the cast delivers both laughter and emotion as they engage in heartfelt communication with the villagers.

The entertainment format blends observational reality TV with slice-of-life storytelling, highlighting each cast member’s unique personality. Producers noted that the chemistry between the five stars shone through from the very first shoot, with the cast quickly bonding and showing their authentic selves.

‘Gaojeong‘ aims to provide viewers with a combination of comfort, nostalgia, and entertainment, bridging the gap between urban celebrities and rural communities. Fans can expect raw interactions, unrehearsed stories, and meaningful moments full of laughter and humanity.

As anticipation builds for this human-centered show, audiences in Korea—and potentially abroad—are looking forward to watching how these well-known faces bring smiles and sincerity to small-town life.
