What kind of variety show would be born when national MC Yu Jae-seok meets the production team of the hit Kian's Bizarre B&B?
Netflix variety show Yu Jae-seok camp invites Yu Jae-seok, Lee Kwangsoo, Byeon Woo-seok and Ji Ye-eun to a special camp away from everyday life.
Coming out on May 26 (Tue), Yu Jae-seok camp is a group camp variety show in which novice camp owner Yu Jae-seok and the unpredictable staff Lee Kwangsoo, Byeon Woo-seok and Ji Ye-eun chatter with, play with and clown around with the lodging guests to complete an escape from daily life. The irreplaceable Yu Jae-seok temporarily puts aside his smooth hosting and becomes a somewhat sloppy novice camp owner, staging a large-scale togetherness camp that is expected to deliver special enjoyment amid cheerful laughter.
Above all, following the wildly popular eccentric guesthouse variety Kian's Bizarre B&B, expectations are higher because it is a new "guesthouse variety" made together with PD Jeong Hyo-min's team.
Released amid high expectations, the teaser trailer announces the opening of Yu Jae-seok camp with a welcoming greeting from novice camp owner Yu Jae-seok and celebratory shots. The staff's enthusiastic ambition to give the large influx of lodging guests a taste of heaven also arouses curiosity. A packed camp schedule for two nights and three days, leaving no time to catch one's breath, also catches the eye. From morning wake-up missions and preparing three meals a day, to afternoon games, evening talent shows and late-night reflective moments, the 24-hour jam-packed camp program prepared for guests heightens interest.
Contrasting their abundant passion, scenes captured staff whose souls seemed to have left them under the intense schedule. Behind the staff's grumbling, a tired Yu Jae-seok collapses saying, "The boss can't rest either." It raises expectations about what kinds of things unfolded at the dreamlike and fantastic world of Yu Jae-seok camp.
The production team emphasized that the biggest difference between existing guesthouse variety shows and Yu Jae-seok camp is the concept of a "camp," saying, "If existing guesthouses were a format that provided lodging and meals, this time a large number of people live together for two nights and three days and experience a tightly scheduled 24-hour program." They added, "Campfires and talent shows naturally evoke memories of training camps, and guests who wanted to try the variety show's games in person will receive vicarious satisfaction through seeing familiar but hard-to-experience contents such as floor cushion quizzes and wake-up missions being tried firsthand."
The production team also said, "Above all, another attraction is that you can see a new side of the figure 'Yu Jae-seok,' who is strong at drawing out people's stories and leading large groups stably," and added, "Amid the high-intensity schedule, you will be able to see a human, somewhat sloppy side of Yu Jae-seok rather than the perfect MC."
