"The Trend Meets the Trend"... Kim Hye-yoon and Dex Confirmed to Join tvN's 'Sister's Direct Delivery' Spin-off

tvN's flagship healing variety 〈Sister's Direct Delivery〉 is returning with a spin-off series featuring an unprecedented lineup. On the 24th local time, the tvN production team officially announced the production of a spin-off featuring actor Kim Hye-yoon and broadcaster Dex (real name Kim Jin-young), revealing their comeback to the home theater in April.

◆ Expanding the 'Direct Delivery' Universe... The Fateful Meeting of Dex and Kim Hye-yoon

This spin-off was planned in response to the explosive popularity of the real variety 〈Sister's Direct Delivery〉, set against the backdrop of the sea and workplaces. Since its launch in 2024, the program has successfully continued to attract viewers through its second season, securing a solid fan base with the genuine labor and food content of the members led by actor Yeom Jung-ah.

In particular, this spin-off will see the return of Dex, who shone as the 'all-round youngest' in season 1, alongside the reliable pillars of the main show, Yeom Jung-ah and Park Jun-myeon. Additionally, Kim Hye-yoon, who appeared as a guest in season 2 and won viewers' hearts with her charming and capable demeanor, will join as a fixed member, promising a powerful synergy of the 'New Youngest Line' that has never been seen before.

◆ A Combination of Ratings Guarantees... Changes in the Variety Landscape in April

The meeting of Kim Hye-yoon, who is currently rising in popularity by crossing between dramas and variety shows, and Dex, who has solidified his status as a 'trend', has been heating up online since the announcement. The production team expressed confidence, stating, "As a spin-off, we will maintain the warm emotions of the main show while presenting the 'genuine family chemistry' that viewers loved in a fresh way through new compositions and missions."

◆ Focusing Firepower on the 'Spin-off' Before Season 3 Airs in the Second Half

tvN aims to maximize the firepower of its IP (intellectual property) through this spin-off ahead of the airing of 〈Sister's Direct Delivery〉 season 3 in the second half of this year. This spin-off, which combines the joy of directly harvesting and cooking fresh produce from the source with the charm of trending stars, is being regarded as the most anticipated work of the first half of the year, going beyond a simple side story.

Currently, the production team is ramping up preparations for filming with the goal of an April schedule. Viewers are keenly watching how Kim Hye-yoon's quirky and lively energy and Dex's dependable energy will create a new harmony within the strong support of Yeom Jung-ah and Park Jun-myeon.
