SBS 'Intrigued Love' delicately captures the natural fate of shamans and the dilemmas they face in real situations, and the final episode is only left on the 23rd.

The first broadcast on the 18th of last month, 'Incredible Love' succeeded in catching both ratings and topical topics, stimulating the curiosity about what eight male and female MZ fortune tellers who predict the fate of others, including tarot, fortune teller, and fortune teller, will choose in front of their fate. Attention was focused on how the relationship program produced by the SBS Culture Bureau would be completed, and he summarized the three things that 'Excited Love' wrote for two months.

▶SBS Culture Bureau succeeds in making bold challenges



'Incredible Love' approached from a new perspective as the liberal arts PD planned it. Above all, recruiting fortune tellers as performers is considered an unconventional step. The production team worked hard to find more than 1,500 fortune tellers for two months as a preliminary work.

PDs working in the liberal arts bureau have minimized the intervention of the production team by calmly exploring the characters. In the course of the program, the focus was on each person without overly focusing on the performer's job itself. Rather than entertainment elements that induce stimulating fun and interest, the video captures human psychological changes.



This production method made viewers focus on fortune tellers themselves. The specificity of those living in front of fate comes as a great curiosity to viewers, naturally becoming enthusiastic about new emotions that have not been experienced in existing love programs.

The first episode of ranked first among terrestrial entertainment programs at the same time with a maximum viewer rating of 2.3% per minute (by Nielsen Korea metropolitan area, household standards). Rankify, a keyword trend ranking service, showed its potential to overtake 'I'm Solo' in the ranking of love entertainment programs. On the OTT platform Wave, the ranking was raised at a rapid pace on the cumulative viewing time chart.

Popularity at home has spread throughout Asia. Among them, he ranked No. 1 in popular entertainment programs in Indonesia, Asia's largest video platform, View (VIU). In addition, posts with the hashtag 'Possessed Love' are increasing on social media such as the Philippines, Thailand, and Malaysia.

▶Break the prejudice against shamanism and repulsion

'Delighted Love' has deviated from the existing perspective by bringing to the fore a fortune teller who is more familiar with the expression of shaman. I looked inside the performers by restraining the stimulating expression of the job as much as possible. The stories of those who received gods on behalf of their younger brothers and used evil to live a normal life, but could not resist their fate, gave a new perspective on the world of shamanism.

The process culminated in the fifth episode, which aired on the 16th. Everyone sympathized with the performers' difficulty in finally adapting to their fate according to their chosen fate and pioneering it. Attention is drawn to the final episode as Lee Hong-jo, Park Yi-yul, Heo Gu-bong, Jo Han-na, Jo Yoon-ah, Soo Soo-hyun, and Choi Han-na throw up their intense emotions in front of the destiny plaque.

While Shin Dong-yeop, Yoo In-na, Yoo Sun-ho, Gabi, and Park Sung-joon play the role of facilitator, raising the fun of the program, requests for the production of season 2 are pouring in. SBS 'Excited Love'The final episode will air at 10:20 p.m. on Tuesday, the 23rd.
