Starting with a new reality show featuring singer LIM YOUNGWOONG—who showed off his friendly charm in last year's 'Little Island, Big Hero'—the lineup continues with the second season of 'Match to Marry', a dating show that broke new ground with its unconventional concept. Finally, the highly anticipated new Friday-Saturday drama 'Agent Kim Reactivated', marking Hallyu star So Ji-sub's return to SBS after 13 years, will also be unveiled.

▲ LIM YOUNGWOONG's Unplanned, Pure Life in 'Mountain's Hero'

First up, singer LIM YOUNGWOONG's return to variety television, 'Mountain's Hero', premieres today (June 23) at 9:00 PM KST.

'Mountain's Hero' captures the unplanned, pure daily lives of LIM YOUNGWOONG and his friends as they temporarily leave civilization behind to enjoy nature instinctively. From the quiet relaxation of the deep valley to a simple analog lifestyle, and his special chemistry with his dog, Siwol, the show will reveal the raw, genuine charm of LIM YOUNGWOONG as an ordinary person.

This season features a star-studded cast, including actors Cha Seung-won, Hyun Bong-sik, and Kim Do-hoon, comedians Heo Kyung-hwan and Kwak Beom, and singers ZO ZAZZ, Nucksal, and Roy Kim. The previously released teaser hinted at an unpredictable and chaotic chemistry among the cast members, who struggle with everything from cooking to games, promising even bigger laughs than last season.

▲ The Spicy Dating Show Where the Whole Family Steps In: 'Match to Marry Season 2'

On Thursday, June 25, at 9:00 PM KST, 'Match to Marry Season 2' returns with an even stronger dose of dopamine.

While the first season built tension through mothers and their children living together, Season 2 introduces a massive new variable: the involvement of the entire family. The gaze and reactions of not just the parents but the whole family will influence the flow of the blind dates, portraying the contestants' excitement and conflicts in a more multi-dimensional way.

The production team expressed strong confidence, stating, "This season, where parents and children live together to write their own stories, will also deliver laughter, emotion, and realistic dilemmas to viewers." Hosts Seo Jang-hoon, Lee Yo-won, and Kim Yo-han, who showed great chemistry in Season 1, will reunite to vividly unpack the generational differences in perspectives on marriage and dating.

▲ So Ji-sub's 'Father Universe' Revenge Action: 'Agent Kim Reactivated'

SBS's new Friday-Saturday drama, 'Agent Kim Reactivated', is set to take over weekend prime-time, continuing the network's undefeated streak of hit weekend dramas.

Premiering on Friday, June 26, at 9:50 PM KST as the follow-up to the hit series 'My Royal Nemesis', 'Agent Kim Reactivated' is a "father universe" revenge action thriller. It tells the story of an ordinary father who becomes the world's most dangerous man to rescue his only daughter. Based on the popular Naver webtoon of the same name, the drama is written by Nam Dae-joong and co-directed by Lee Seung-young and Lee So-eun.

The cast is equally spectacular. Actor So Ji-sub stars as the titular "Manager Kim," a man living under the guise of an ordinary manager at a small savings bank, who is actually a former elite black-ops agent. He is set to deliver a fierce and intense action performance. Joining him are Choi Dae-hoon as Seong Han-su, a secret agent and Taekwondo gold medalist, and Yoon Kyungho as Park Jin-cheol, a legendary figure known as the "god of war." Together, the three men will showcase explosive action synergy.
