(*) In bold are my personal favorites

i don’t really watch many shows tbh so i thought i’d make a list of ones i found interesting, just for fun lol and maybe you’ll find something interesting too!! also if u know any fun shows feel free to share ~

all these shows should be available on kshow, i know the website is terrible which is why i didn’t link but if you CAN’T find these shows anywhere else just know, last resort, it’s on kshow...just be sure to use adblock too....

1. SUPER INTERN (eng subs) : basically produce for adults lol it’s like job hunting, projects, presentations but with mnet’s editing; super interesting since i’ve never seen a show like this and the things they touch on apply pretty much universally irl and to other businesses as well not just entertainments

basic rundown - jyp looks to hire interns purely through their SWOT analysis (without knowing anything about the contestants prior no background, education, gender, etc) and they go through various projects and the winner gets hired to work at jyp full time!

2. SUPERBAND (no subs but at least u can understand joe hahn): you might have seen me talking about this show because i was obsessed with it but it’s another survival show but to make a band, unlike most shows it feels like the contestants basically have full artistic freedom on what they want to do as there wasn’t really any set guidelines other than a max about of members you could pick for a team

normally in a band i tend to focus on vocals and guitar but thanks to the show i feel like i can appreciate other sounds more and how everything comes together, it was also very interesting to see instruments you wouldn’t normally see in a normal band set up and how they worked with everything

basically i think the entire show was performances and small bits of their creative process + judges and eliminations there wasn’t much filler from what i remembered but they do upload cute behind the scenes stuff on their vlive/youtube channel!!

> some performances i liked (these are now updated to naver links bc jbtc decided to be mean and private most of the youtube videos from the show): childhood memories, fireflies, smooth, stop crying your heart out, still fighting it, f=ma, creep, there’s just too many rip 

> alternatively you can just listen on spotify (someone compiled all the ones available on spotify onto a playlist, it’s not every performance for some reason some never got put up on there but it’s most of them)

note: if anyone wants to watch this now or want someone to discuss it with or anything i’m still free to talk about this show i will never get over it I WILL NEVER SHUT UP until they make a second season

3. THE GREAT ESCAPE (eng subs): huge escape rooms, fun to watch if u like doing escape rooms or like watching people trying to escape from large scale who-knows-where-the-budget-came-from rooms lol though if i remember correctly there’s a bonus episode at the end that shows the before and afters of some of the places and how the staff went through and renovated these places to make them into escape rooms (but i don’t think that one was subbed)

there are 2 seasons both are great though it does eventually turn into basically a horror/thriller special since all the rooms just get scarier but they have warnings before anything creepy pops up good for the weak souls like me but i guess bad for those who enjoy the thrill (they apologize, sorry guys)

4. VOCAL PLAY (no subs): it’s a show meant to introduce a capella to the masses, for once, this is not a survival show (even though there are winners) so if you get attached easily this will be a less tearful watch and while the entire thing is not subbed, they do have subbed clips on their youtube

i believe the pool has beat boxers, a capella groups, and vocalists (+ rappers); each judge form their teams with a mix of the above and they compete with each other purely with the sounds of their voices only - only in the beginning audition can singers use a backtrack, once the teams are formed all stages are advertised to be purely a capella! (note: they do use choirs sometimes to fill i think???)

> some performances i liked: phantom of the opera, attention, circle of life + my heart will go on

Any good suggestions? I’m thinking of starting Bride of The Water God cause Nam Joo-hyuk (also partially bc Krystal), but I’ve heard some mixed reviews??
