Seo Jang-hoon & Ahn Jung-hwan Join Forces... JTBC's New Variety Show 'Yes Man' Premieres on January 17

Two 'legends' who have taken over the South Korean variety scene have come together. Seo Jang-hoon and Ahn Jung-hwan will serve as mentors to test the variety skills of junior sports stars. JTBC announced on the 29th that the new variety program 〈Yes Man〉 will premiere on January 17 at 7:10 PM next year.

〈Yes Man〉 is short for 'Variety Sports Man', featuring legendary sports stars representing South Korea who will validate their variety competitiveness in a survival-style variety show.

This program will showcase a format that differentiates it from existing sports variety shows. Participants will be evaluated on their 'variety sense' through various missions such as talk and quizzes, and the highest scorer each episode will receive a 'Yes Man Medal Badge'. Conversely, the lowest scorer will not be allowed to participate in the next recording, applying a survival format.

The MC lineup is also a hot topic. The hosting team, composed of South Korea's representative sport entertainers (sports + entertainers), is gaining attention. Former national basketball player Seo Jang-hoon and former national football player Ahn Jung-hwan will co-host the program.

The two MCs will draw out the potential of the participants based on their experiences and variety sense in their respective sports fields, aiming to bring laughter to the viewers. In particular, Seo Jang-hoon is starting a new challenge with 〈Yes Man〉 after completing his role as the pilot MC for JTBC 〈Lecture Battle Show: Scammers〉.

The production team stated, "We wanted to create a platform where sportspeople dreaming of entering the variety scene can showcase their talents and passion," adding, "You can expect unique laughter from the new variety gems that will be presented."
