SBS is gearing up to captivate viewers this August with a dynamic lineup of diverse new variety shows and proven seasonal favorites.
Starting with the premiere of "Love Against Time" on August 3, SBS has curated a powerful variety lineup by rolling out new shows every week through the end of August.
The first runner is the 2030 youth dating reality show "Love Against Time" (airs every Monday at 10:00 PM). Capturing the journey of young adults with past medical experiences facing life and love once again, the program has been making major waves both domestically and internationally, entering Netflix Korea's Top 10 and securing overseas OTT contracts right from its premiere.
Next up, Tuesday night's signature mealtime companion "Whenever Possible" (Season 5 premieres Tuesday, August 11 at 9:00 PM) returns for its fifth season. The "Yoo-Yoo MCs" Yu Jae-seok and Yoo Yeonseok, who ranked number one in 2049 viewership ratings for 15 consecutive weeks last season, are teaming up once again. Actor Hwang Jung-min and Jung Hoyeon are set to jump in as guests for the season premiere, raising anticipation.
South Korea's first AI dating survival show "My AI Partner - Strange Romance" (premieres Thursday, August 20 at 9:00 PM) will also lift the veil. Featuring Kian84, known for his raw human charm, alongside Jang Doyoun and Lee Yu-bi, the show is set to deliver fresh dopamine by capturing unpredictable emotional currents as they date their AI partners.
Finally, "My Genie Secretary" (premieres Friday, August 28 at 11:10 PM), which boasts a cumulative 170 million views, returns with a new season. Lee Seo-jin and Kim Kwang-kyu transform into "real secretaries" taking charge of the most confidential areas of a star's life, offering high-end close-up care, with singer BIBI joining as the first guest.
Attention is focused on what kind of breeze SBS's new August variety offerings, armed with genre-defying bold attempts and proven entertainment value, will bring to the living room.
