From survival to Gian84's guest house variety, Netflix is targeting the K-entertainment of 'My Type'.

Starting with 'The influencer', which will be released on August 6, Netflix will have nine entertainment shows boasting various genres, materials, and cast members coming to viewers every month until the first half of next year. Netflix aims to provide a variety of entertainment to viewers of various tastes. At the Netflix Entertainment Festival held on the 26th, Yoo Ki-hwan, director of Netflix's entertainment division, said, `The Korean entertainment team aims to satisfy viewers with various tastes. Even if this is not my taste, the next one may be my taste, so please look forward to the upcoming Netflix entertainment works.'

Various fields that will explode Netflix Korea's own dopamine and survival of the scale of imagination add to the expectation. First of all, 'The influencer', which will be released on August 6, is a social survival entertainment that competes to find the most influential person among the 77 Korean influencer whose influence is soon to be paid. Producer Lee Jae-seok said, `It's a survival more like a competition than a competition. We formed the mission by extracting the common characteristics of influencers, and especially since they like to express their presence, they will deploy keywords in each round and be different from other survival." Producer Lee Jae-seok then expressed an interesting point of view, saying, `It's fun to see how influencers will survive by revealing their own charms and contents.'

Released in September, 'Black and White Chef: Cooking Class War' is a cooking class war between the star chefs of 'Baeksujeo' and the masters of 'Baeksujeo'Jaeya who challenged themselves to become the best in Korea. Michelin's three-star chef Ahn Sung-jae, the dream of Jongwon Baek and chefs, will serve as a judge to find the best taste. Producer Kim Hak-min said, `They often say that there is no way for the performers to breathe because the two best judges conduct a close net-like examination so that they cannot escape any one field,' and predicted, `There are often differences of opinion because of different styles, and that will also be an interesting judging scene.'

Unveiled in October 'Comedy Revenge' is a comedy composition that competes only with comedy, regardless of age, career, or origin. Lee Kyung-kyu's team (Lee Chang-ho, Um Ji-yoon, Cho Hoon), the winner of 'Comedy Royal', which caused a lot of attention last year, planned it as a winning benefit. With comedy godfather Lee Kyung-kyu at the center, 22 top comedians who have formed a family with comedy will stage a hot comedy revenge battle with their pride. Producer Kwon Hye-bom expressed confidence, saying, `It starts with the cause of getting together and doing comedy composition once again, and then a fight for revenge.' `I'm confident that each team has performed well in new comedy missions in their own colors and will show more fun and advanced comedies than in season 1.'

The brain survival game entertainment show 'Devils Plan" will return to season 2 in 2025 when players from various occupations stay in training for 7 days to determine the best brain. If it was fun to watch the brain fight of 12 individual players in season 1, 14 players will come out this time. Producer Jeong Jong-yeon said, `I recruited mainly performers who could play fun, opened up philosophies and plans for brain games one by one, and even took the liberty of testing them out,' raising expectations for a more upgraded brain survival.

Expectations are high with producer Jang Si-won's new work that contains passion and sincerity with 'strongest baseball','steel unit','Urban Fisherman'.

Solos' honest and hot dating reality show 'Solo Hell 4' will come in 2025 on a remote island that can only be left as a couple. As a work that presented a milestone in the K-love reality that Global fell in love with, this season even made efforts to cast on the street to find more attractive performers. Producer Kim Jae-won added a lot of fresh flavors by introducing shocking rules. If you have season 1 freesia, season 2 dex, and season 3 Lee Kwan-hee, I think this time the story of a couple is interesting, so I think that the couple will be a star couple.", adding to expectations for the birth of new stars and original fun.

Variety and New Face cast members are then preparing to launch, with stronger laughter and a solid world view added. The new season of the K-zombie entertainment will begin in the fourth quarter of this year with the new 'Zombie Buses: New Bloods'. "Zombie Bus" is a zombie universe entertainment that has to survive by performing quests in Korea, which has suddenly turned into a zombie world. Producer Park Jin-kyung predicted a bigger and funnier zombie universe in a variety of character plays, saying, `It will be more fun because the performers are really serious and working hard to match the situation that is more severe than season 1.' In addition, "New Blood" also refers to new members and is an important expression of what could be a hint of cure due to the identity of new blood."It raised questions about the title of the new season.
