Korean Celebrities Take on the Countryside in New Variety Show
A unique mix of South Korean stars is heading to the countryside in a brand-new variety show titled “Ganeunjeong Oneunjeong with Lim Min-jung”. Set to premiere on July 16 at 10 PM KST on the Korean Broadcasting System (KBS), the program promises heartfelt stories, dynamic chemistry, and a comedic twist on rural life.
The show follows a mobile convenience store that travels to remote village towns, delivering essential goods while spending the night engaging with locals. With a focus on real human interaction, the format blends candid celebrity observations and vibrant cultural exchanges.
Lim Min-jung takes the spotlight as the main host, marking a return to regular TV in an unexpected format. She’ll be joined by an impressive and unconventional lineup—actors Kim Jung-hyun and Kim Jae-won, variety show powerhouse Boom, and actor Ahn Jae-hyun, all forming a chemistry-filled crew never before seen together.
Boom, renowned for his unmatched energy and wit, is expected to drive the show’s mood with his signature flair. His ability to connect with both cast and audience alike has made him one of Korea’s most beloved entertainers.
Ahn Jae-hyun, known for his unforgettable roles in dramas like “My Love from the Star” and “The Beauty Inside”, is set to showcase yet another side of his talent. Having previously demonstrated quirky charm on the hit variety series “New Journey to the West”, his compelling visuals and unpredictable humor add extra spice to the group dynamic.
A KBS representative shared, “These five stars came together to create an energy no one could have expected. Even during the first filming, their chemistry exceeded all predictions. We’re excited for viewers to see what this team brings to the screen.”
With openhearted storytelling, real-life comedy, and a dream ensemble cast, “Ganeunjeong Oneunjeong with Lim Min-jung” is shaping up to be the heartwarming surprise hit of the season.
