SK Broadband unveiled 3 new programs for the fall season on the 19th. The new offerings are themed around travel, food, and intergenerational empathy, and the company is differentiating its content through local and human stories. By centering its lineup on regional identity and personal narratives, the company has prepared a slate of fall viewing options.
The lineup is built around rediscovering domestic travel destinations through foreign eyes, documenting the lives behind a local meal, and combining mystery and nostalgia for seniors. The programs include 'Trip in Korea' Season 8, 'A Piece of Gourmet, One Meal,' and 'Youth School 2026,' and the broadcast channels are 'ch B tv' and co-produced channels. The shows will air in sequence.
The first title to be released is the local travel entertainment show 'Trip in Korea' Season 8. The program follows a format in which foreign residents in Korea serve as 1-night, 2-day travel guides and introduce domestic travel routes to Korean MCs. The MC and foreign guides travel together throughout each region.
The MCs are actor Oh Ji-ho and broadcaster Oh Jung-yeon. Oh Ji-ho and Oh Jung-yeon return as MCs after Season 7.
The defining feature of this season of 'Trip in Korea' is the change in travel guides. In previous seasons, Koreans introduced domestic attractions to foreigners, but this season features foreigners who have built up their tastes and experiences through life in Korea leading the trips. The program is designed to uncover hidden charms in familiar places.
'Trip in Korea' is co-produced by Real TV and NBS Korea Agricultural Broadcasting. It runs 30 minutes per episode for a total of 60 episodes, and will air from the 19th to January 8 next year. It will air on weekdays at 4:30 p.m. on ch B tv, Real TV, and NBS Korea Agricultural Broadcasting. 'Trip in Korea' first aired in 2023, and 420 episodes had been produced through Season 7 in the first half of this year.
'A Piece of Gourmet, One Meal' premieres on the 26th. The program focuses on local food and human stories, and is co-produced by WeLike. Food columnist and writer Park Sang-hyun visits regions to document various meals and the lives of the people who make them.
The program goes beyond introducing popular restaurants and menu items, instead highlighting the time, craftsmanship, and philosophy that go into completing a dish. It also focuses on the meaning of an everyday meal through the memories and emotions food evokes.
The program is scheduled for 30 minutes per episode, with 20 episodes in total. It will air from the 26th to December 28, with one episode each Monday at 5:30 p.m. and another at 6:30 p.m. The viewing channels are ch B tv and WeLike.
As a follow-up, 'Youth School 2026' will begin airing on November 4. 'Youth School 2026' is a senior participation brain entertainment program co-produced by Daekyo Nieu Plus. The cast includes comedian Jeong Seung-hwan and senior participants.
'Youth School 2026' consists of 'Youth Investigation Team' and 'Journey Through Memories.' In the 'Youth Investigation Team' segment, 10 seniors gather clues and solve problems, while in 'Journey Through Memories,' another 10 participants share their memories. It is also designed so viewers can solve problems together and reminisce about the past.
'Youth School 2026' is scheduled for 30 minutes per episode, with 16 episodes in total. It will air from November 4 to December 24 at 9:30 p.m. every Wednesday and Thursday. The broadcast channels are ch B tv and Daekyo Nieu Plus.
Park In-seo, who oversees cable broadcasting at SK Broadband, explained the planning direction behind the 3 new programs unveiled this time, saying that each program will pursue a different approach to regional and human stories while centering its concept on a new perspective on travel, the value of a meal, and the challenges and memories of seniors, with the goal of delivering everyday enjoyment and empathy to viewers.
