Choi Daniel Launches Unscripted YouTube Series Ahead of 'Gugidong Friends' Premiere

Actor Choi Daniel has unveiled raw content on his YouTube channel. Choi is set to appear on tvN's 'Gugidong Friends,' premiering on the 10th. The show features Choi, born in 1986, alongside other 1980s-born stars like Jang Do-yeon, Lee Da-hee, Jang Keun-suk, Ahn Jae-hyun, and Kyung Soo-jin.

On November 1st at 7 PM, Choi Daniel released his new content 'Met But Don't Know When It Ends' on his YouTube channel 'Choi Daniel.' The show is an 'unplanned impromptu travel vlog' format, where Choi, known for his candid persona in existing variety shows, showcases an even more unfiltered side.

This content focuses on Choi Daniel's 'true charm' rather than his on-screen roles. His natural and quirky personality, along with his unpretentious reactions, are expected to bring him closer to viewers. The structure flows with the situation without a set schedule or mission, highlighting unpredictable developments and spontaneous talks.

The first destination is Hoengseong, Gangwon Province. The show humorously captures various situations that unfold during the unplanned journey, centered around 'Hoengseong Korean beef.' The unexpected developments from spontaneous movements and choices are key viewing points.

The production team stated, "The focus is on showcasing Choi Daniel as a person, free from scripts or settings. It will be a new style of variety show that combines comfort with unpredictable fun."

Choi Daniel previously received warm reception on YouTube with his talk content 'Choi Da Cheese,' known for his comfortable hosting and honest charm, which gained steady traction through word of mouth. He proved his potential as an 'unexpected variety character' where fun and consideration coexist. In this context, the new content raises expectations with its expanded format and free structure.

Choi Daniel's new content 'Met But Don't Know When It Ends' will offer unique enjoyment through the charm of unplanned vlogs and a free format, traveling nationwide. New episodes are released every Wednesday at 7 PM.
