As
I said in a previous post K-Dramas introduced me to the world of Korean Variety
shows. I don’t know what it is about Korean Varity shows but I can’t help but
watch them. There are a few that I watch more then others. Before I found
dramafever.com I used to watch Running Man on TV without subtitles every
Saturday night. You don’t need subtitles to understand what is going on. But
having the words makes it more enjoyable.
A
lot of the Varity shows I watch on YouTube since I do not have access to the
channels. I can pay to have access to a few more Korean related channels. Without
YouTube I could not fully enjoy some of the shows I’m currently hooked too. All
hale to the founders of YouTube and all those who use it. There are four shows
that I watch religiously and then there are some shows I might watch every once
in a while.
On
Monday I watch Running Man. It is one of my favorite Korean Variety shows. All
of the members bring something different to the show. But my favorite member
would be Kwang-Soo. He is just so funny and lovable. But all of the members are
pretty awesome. On Tuesday I watch Cool Kiz on the Block. I started to watch
this show while they were playing badminton. Ho Dong is so retarded and funny.
It wouldn’t be the same without him on the show. I liked basketball better then
badminton. But it is interesting to watch the actors and singers play sports were
they either have little or no experience. But there are a few people who have a
lot of experience in the chosen sport. But it hasn’t been on for the last twp
weeks but they posted a new episode early this morning.
On
Friday I watch Music Bank. I usually just skip all of the groups I don’t like
and only listen to the groups I like. Since I don’t listen to any female
artists so there goes half of the show to begin with. I also skip over groups I
either haven’t heard of or I don’t like. The groups I’ve never heard of I
usually look up their music video and watch it later. On Saturday I watch Let’s
Go Dream Team. I like how they have a variety of people on the show. It’s not
just one type of people. It’s a mix of actors, singers, models and everything
in between. I also like that they have normal, everyday people to go head to
head with. The MCs are so good together. They compliment each other.
Sometimes
I watch Weekly Idol depending on who is the guest. I like to watch my favorite
idols on there. It’s funny when the MCs make them do stupid and embarrassing
things. I loved Block Bs guest appearance. I laughed so hard throughout the
whole show. It is just a great “simple” show and it is different from the other
shows that are similar to it. I’m not to sure what day the new episodes are
posted on YouTube. I usually just look it up on Wikipedia to see who the guests
are before I go looking for it on YouTube. I also just started to watch 2 Days
and 1 Night season 3. Only two episodes have been posted but I’m now two
episodes behind. But I can catch us easy.
If
you never watched a Korean variety show you should go check them out. They are
so much fun and America has nothing like them. Even my mother agrees about
them. I can sometimes get her to watch running man with me. I think on Tuesday we
watched the episodes 84 and 85 with Big Bang. It was awesome!!!
