My Favourite Korean Variety Show: 1 Night 2 Days



Check this out! This is currently my favourite Korean Variety Show on KBS World! Its called 1 Night 2 Days. It is basically a show about a group of 6 friends traveling around South Korea for 2 days and 1 night. While traveling, they had to do a number of challenges to win either food, or accomodation. Most of the time, the challenges are really stupid. But the reaction is what people normally tune in for. For example, on last night's show, they were made to eat lemons for a slice of minced meat. The catch?: They have to finish it in 3 mins as a group! So technically, everyone has only 30 seconds to gobble it up and to make it even difficult, they had to whistle at the end of it. The whistle was necessary because if you're the last person, and you only have 10 seconds left, eating it would be impossible. So what one of them did was put the lemon in its entirety into his mouth and tried to whistle... which is impossible! But it did crack us up! Plus, the faces they pulled once the sourness of the lemon kicks in. Was just SO hilarious!!

The video for this episode is not up yet. But just as funny, I've embedded part of an episode from a month ago.




I've been drowning in a lot of Korean shows. Thanks to subtitles. HAHA! Anyway

Btw, part of the reason why I watch this show, other than it's hilarious, is because of Lee Seung Gi! He's sooooo cute! Actually he looked a lot like a friend I used to have a crush on. Hehehehe.....
