The new entertainment show 'Couple Resting', scheduled to be broadcast in May, is a new entertainment program presented by PD Seo Hye-jin's Crea Studio after 'Burning Trotman'. We propose a ‘marital relationship solution’ to Korean couples who live ‘sexless’ for various social and personal reasons.

Above all, producer Lee Guk-yong of 'We Got Divorced', who created a sensation in Korea by suggesting the possibility of a new relationship after divorce, and writer Jeong Seon-young of 'Divorced' and 'Idol Singles' will reunite to lead to another unconventional couple discourse. Is expected.
In addition, Shin Dong-yeop, known by many as the '19+ talk leader', and actress Han Chae-ah, who has been married for 7 years and has been well-received for her easy-going charm and honest speaking style, form a consensus with viewers by forming the MC corps of 'Couple on a Rest'.
The two do a great job of telling the real story of living as a real-life husband and wife with their outspokenness and at the same time passing on real-life tips to help couples restart their relationship. Here, a team of experts who will present life-friendly solutions, including medical knowledge on marital relationships, workshops, and individual homework, will join to solve the concerns of 'couples taking a break'.
'Couple on a Rest' features four couples who have different reasons but have the same concerns, and raises deep topics about marital relationships. They participate in the 'Rest Couples Workshop' and fill out a check-up sheet to find out their current condition, and have time to talk openly with each other and the stories they have not been able to tell their spouses through conversations between husbands and wives. In particular, it is said that during this process, an unexpected situation occurred in which the contestant, who heard for the first time the sexual fantasy that his spouse had been hiding, fell into shock and shed tears, shocking everyone.
The production team said, “‘Couple on a Rest’ is a consensus-building program that listens to the inside stories of various couples through various stories, and provides customized solutions that are essential for couples.” They added, “It was a concern for most couples, but they could not bring it up. “Please look forward to ‘Couple Resting’, which will boldly reveal the story and raise serious topics about marital relations in Korea.”
