Join Jang Sung-kyu and Lee Sang-yeob as they explore short yet exhilarating weekend travel destinations, offering a fresh travel roadmap for 2026. The duo is set to reveal breathtaking locations that promise to ignite your wanderlust.

On January 16th at 8 PM, the T-Cast E Channel's special episode of 'One to Ten' will showcase 'Top 10 Weekend Getaways.' These destinations are perfect for those looking to travel without taking time off work, offering a balance of time, distance, and satisfaction. This 2026 travel roadmap aims to provide a thrilling escape for those unable to travel during long holidays and awaken the travel instincts of those planning a getaway this year.

Among the featured destinations is Qingdao, known as the 'City of Beer.' Just a 1.5-hour flight from Incheon Airport, Qingdao boasts an exotic landscape reminiscent of 'Little Europe in Asia.' The city's German colonial history is preserved in its identity, with a 120-year-old brewery now serving as a beer museum, enriching the travel experience. The episode also highlights a charming fishing village dubbed the 'Venice of Hong Kong,' where Jang Sung-kyu marvels, "It's like a scene from a movie." The serene boat ride through the village's stilt houses offers a healing experience, while the dolphin tour featuring the endangered Chinese white dolphin, or 'pink dolphin,' is a must-see highlight.

Another standout destination is a city renowned as a UNESCO World Natural Heritage site and a 'World's Best Night Sky' location. With no light pollution, the night sky reveals a breathtaking display of the Milky Way and shooting stars, leaving Jang Sung-kyu in awe, "Is this real? I really want to see it in person. It's amazing." Lee Sang-yeob adds, "I could spend the whole night just gazing at the sky there."

Additionally, a paradise reachable in just 2 hours and 40 minutes, known as the 'Hawaii of the East,' takes the top spot. Jang Sung-kyu emphatically recommends, "You're missing out if you don't visit here." This destination offers stunning beaches and emerald waters perfect for snorkeling, along with the thrill of driving across a 3,540-meter bridge that feels like flying over the sea.

The episode also features a variety of other enticing destinations, including a 'view paradise' with a stunning view of Mount Fuji, a 'city of eternal spring' for coffee lovers, a 'balloon heaven' closer than Turkey, a hot spot city that transformed from an abandoned mining town to a culinary destination, a new haven for 'spicy mala' enthusiasts, and 'Asia's Switzerland,' one of the best rural travel destinations. These diverse locations are sure to spark viewers' travel desires.
