Gian84's 'Around the Planet' double production confirmed for seasons 2 and 3

MBC's entertainment show 'Around the World Since I Was Born' (hereinafter referred to as 'Around the World') and Kian84's journey around the world continues. When season 1 was broadcast, 'Around the World', which showed the rawest travel with Kian84 under the concept of an unplanned local travel and confirmed the production of season 2, even announced the confirmation of production of season 3.

On the 30th, ‘Around the World’ said, “Seasons 2 and 3 will be planned and broadcast in succession. “We ask for your interest and support in these two seasons with Kian84.”

'Around the World' received great reviews in last season 1 for its close local travel between Kian84, who left for South America, Lee Si-eon, and Panibottle, who met on the other side of the world. From the Amazon in Peru to the Uyuni Salt Flats in Bolivia, the sight of people feeling the local environment, life, and culture with their whole body provided a unique catharsis.

Kian84, the 'man who was born and lives in the sea' and 'Around the World', which became the center of travel content, demonstrated the best synergy that can be seen anywhere else. The perfect match between Kian84's unrivaled character and the production staff who knew him well made Season 1 a success.

Kian84's ability to overcome borders and language limitations, become friends with local people, and naturally permeate their daily lives, was not just a travel program for people to experience, but also included true humanism, providing fun and emotion at the same time. The production team's gaze, which rediscovered the novelty of Kian 84, further raised viewers' expectations about the possibility of expansion of 'Around the World'.

It is unusual for an entertainment program that the production of Season 2 of 'Around the World' was confirmed even before the end of Season 1, and that Season 3 will be produced consecutively. 'Around the World', which has confirmed a double season, will begin production immediately and is fully prepared to produce various events and colorful content that will provide fun for viewers waiting for Gian84's trip around the world.

PD Kim Ji-woo, the director of ‘Around the World’, said, “Thanks to the support of viewers, we are all happy that we have been able to confirm two seasons in a row,” adding, “We are planning travel destinations and planning that can maximize the characteristics of the content of ‘Around the World.’ “I will come back,” he said.

'Around the World' is currently reorganizing the overall production situation and planning a round-the-world journey with Kian84. We plan to deliver related news through various platforms in the future.
