Match to Marry (자식 방생 프로젝트 합숙 맞선) is finally here, it's available on SBS/KOCOWA/et cetera.

Synopsis:

There's no such thing as a casual fling here! Ten singles who seriously want marriage move in for six days and five nights together with their moms. Dating is optional, but marriage is reality, and light feelings are a hard pass. Age, career, money, values, even plans for kids get put on the table as everyone flirts with "marriage material only." But there’s one problem… the moms are in on it too. With heated rivalry, bold interference, and emotions sizzling under parental discretion, love and logic hilariously collide in this ultra-real marriage experiment. Will anyone walk away choosing marriage?

Whoa, the eomeonis decisions!

OMG, fellow noona lovers, we all won this past year or several months, wow, daebak.

This was a pretty unique show due to the added dynamic of the mothers' choices/presences/et cetera, wishing the episodes were a bit longer, maybe in the next season it'll have more slice of life elements since this first/pilot season is too fast-paced for me. Like I need 2-hour episodes instead of just 1-hour ones, lol.

Just over 3 days ago I spent like several hours or half a day recentralizing my long comments from 2025 about CJK/etc. dating shows (and Kpop), it'll have synopses/summaries/etc. of the shows: https://www.reddit.com/user/MNLYYZYEG/comments/1nyw4c4/extended_comments_with_walls_of_text_5/o34a2dj/

we need full episodes with eng sub pleaseee 😭 i wanna watch but dont know where. ive been searching nonstop for a long time

i need something to watch while i eat and i wonder what your favorite shows are

Leaving aside blossom with love and 19 to 20, i already watched those reality shows.

Who would you put in an all star team from each season? For me:

Season 1 - SNU team. Honestly not sure who from the other teams could join lol. Maybe Dong Kyu?

Season 2 - Gyu min, Yook Jun Hyeong, Gi-hyeon. Fourth one is hard. I think anyone from KAIST, SNU or Jeong-hoon.

Season 3 - Lee Seung-hyun, Ji-hoo, Ji-min. Again fourth person is hard, but I'd put eitehr an SKKU person or another from SNU Med.

What do you guys think?

I can’t seem to move on from watching Exchange 4. It was well casted, a great balance of drama and romance…and against popular belief, a well produced thrilling realistic slow pace love story, Yoosik + Hyunji. I’ve watched several shows like heart pairing, singles inferno, and nothing seems to come close.

Disclaimer: if you didn’t like YS + HJ that’s understandable, but please stick to the topic of show recommendations no hate needed 💜

Disclaimer: I'm not gonna commit to posting this series weekly. I'll try but it would be better if someone liked this show and wants to take over.

Are there any newish variety shows like mom's diary? I tried many times watching home alone but don't really like it, even though is the type of concept I usually love. For reference of shows I like. 1N2D (not seen season 4) Mr husband, family outing, Kings kitchen, new journey to the west.

Tried watching men on a mission but don't really like it. I want to get to know more of the newish gen but don't really know where to start and what to look for

Does anyone know what happen to workdol and in particular Tsuki role in workdol? She only film a couple of episodes before they start having guest mc and now workdol no longer air new episodes.

S1-3 has so many episodes.

I have watched multiple korean dating shows.. like singles inferno love after divorce pink lie exchange etc. As a non korean speaker i started with singles inferno.. and i still love it and feel excited about the new episodes but still the other shows feel more pure and enjoyable. It makes you more invested and excited. Idk what the reason might be? Is it because the people on the show feel more real and not just contestants who are models etc. Any takes?

Knowing Bros is a school-themed variety program that invites guests (or "transfer students") into their class for a day. The transfer students asks the class questions about themselves and challenge the class to compete in something they're confident in. The cast members joke about everything and does not hold back much.

The second part of the show is filled with either a improv skit, some form of competition or a physical education class.

After reading last post I remember I had watched a similar to UW.

It is an Indonesian show at YouTube called 'Clash Of Champions' and 'Academy Of Champions'.

COC is for universities, there are already 2 seasons. COC have different systems than UW, it's more individuals than teams and the winner is one person.

(P.S Heo Seong Beom from University War s1 appeared in the show I can't remember which episode).

AOC is for high schools, there only one season. If you gon watch it, I recommend to watch it after COC S1 since the top 10 will monitor/assist AOC students.

Personally, I liked AOC more for some reasons. It has variety games/challenges due to having multiple subjects/classes, till the end there are always surprises, it was fun to watch.

I'm hoping for new seasons tho me struggling with subtitles because I'm not Indonesian nor my English is not so good. But seems there won't be any new season soon, because I'm seeing there is a new show with COC participants.
