Coupang Play variety show "Next Legend" is set to premiere on the 30th (Fri) at 4 p.m., and a teaser trailer has been released.
Coupang Play variety show "Next Legend" is a real survival program where next-generation prospects who will lead the future of Korean soccer earn the opportunity to move to major overseas leagues through fierce competition.
Soccer prospects who have waited for the one chance to prove their potential across Korea enter harsh survival competition shuttling between Korea and the United Kingdom, challenging entry into the overseas leagues, the dream stage.
The released teaser intercuts the cold evaluations of soccer legends who pour relentless advice and pressure on 44 prospects burning with determination for the European stage, instantly capturing attention. The cutting remark, "You run like that? You can't even get near Europe," shakes the participants' pride and induces extreme tension. Meanwhile, a scene follows in which world-class star Gareth Bale appears as a savior to guide them, stimulating anticipation for the fateful survival they will face.
"Next Legend" is a mega project inviting a new golden age of Korean soccer that will follow the era of the second Park Ji-sung and Son Heung-min. Gareth Bale, who played for Tottenham Hotspur and Real Madrid, and Lee Young-pyo, the hero of the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup who played in Europe, join as mentors to accompany the participants' growth journeys. The two legends will select the next-generation legends who will dominate the world stage based on realistic standards and cold feedback drawn from their European stage experience.
The mega soccer survival show "Next Legend," which vividly captures the participants' passionate challenges and frustrations toward the dream of entering European leagues and the fierce moments to survive, will be available exclusively on Coupang Play every Friday at 4 p.m. starting on the 30th (Fri). All Coupang Wow members as well as general members can watch for free.
