Dear Han fans, the good news is coming!
According to Korean media, the fourth season of the Korean variety show "The Great Escape" will be recorded for the first period on May 16!
After the first season of 2018 aired, the highly acclaimed Next Meal Variety show has finally returned!
The Douban score of the first three seasons of "The Great Escape" has always been around 9.5 points, which is really a god-level variety show.
It is worth mentioning that according to the current news, the guest lineup has not changed, and the original team has returned to recording.
The six regular guests include: National Host Kang Ho-dong, Captain Ko Yoo-tae Kim Jong-min, Super Junior Member Prodigy, Block B Member P.O, Fighter Kim Dong-hyun, singer and writer Yoo Byung-jae.
Fans who have not seen it may be curious why it is called "Korean god-level variety show", and let Bajie introduce it to you below.
The Great Escape is a large-scale escape room reality show produced by South Korean television station tvN.
On the surface, this is an incomparably normal escape variety show.
But in fact, after watching it, you will find that this is simply a mixed version of Resident Evil, Silent Hill and Kun chi Yan!
The director of this variety show, Zheng Zhongyuan, is the director of the third and fourth seasons of TVN's word-of-mouth program "The Law of Games" and the two seasons of "Society Game", and I am very passionate about brain-burning reality shows.
At the beginning of each episode, guests get on the bus from a meeting point, are led by the bus to the real recording location, wear eye masks when approaching the venue, and then be guided by the staff to enter.
The motivation of the production team to do this is nothing more than to create a psychological atmosphere for the guests first, and it is impossible to determine where they are, after all, people's fear comes from the unknown.
There are surprises from the first episode, and the prodigy, as the intellectual bearer, unlocks the first code clue, but can't find where to use it. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and entered the password on the landline on the desk, and the entire desk instantly turned into a dark door and descended to the next floor!
However, to remind everyone, watch the horror special should always pay attention, after all, there is nothing on the wall will suddenly stick out a big face, a moment to kill the heart of the production team.
But the horror is also mixed with a lot of funny.
In addition to the main plot of each season, "The Great Escape" also has a "definitely not" series.
Take advantage of human curiosity, or reverse psychology, and say that you must do something that you should never do.
The "absolutely do not pull" that appeared in the first issue was pulled out to put the fried chicken safe password, because the guests' attachment to fried chicken allowed the program team to see through these people, and the "absolute do not" series became a whole series from the second escape.
In the second escape, there was a spell behind the door that said "Absolutely do not open".
A note was attached to the spell: "Tear it off whoever can bear it."
As a result, Bingzai volunteered...
So the face was sprayed with cream, and this picture laughed and paralyzed the fans in front of the screen.
But it's funny, the six members of the show have a clear division of labor and work together, and the chemistry of the three seasons is more intense.
Their cooperation with the program group is also more tacit, and whenever they enter a new chamber, MC can complete the understanding of the situation in the chamber through language, expressions, behaviors and other reactions.
Members are becoming more familiar with the escape room process and more proactive in the face of clueless situations, and the show presents the audience with a state of cooperation that is always actively exploring.
The atmosphere of encouragement between the members also makes the whole show more warm than thrilling.
Marvel DC fans must be familiar with the concept of the cinematic universe, and yes, The Great Escape has its own universe.
Not only does it move closer to the movie on the set, but even the storyline is like a TV series, episode after episode.
The audience has been amazed by the screenwriter's brain hole, watching a variety show is like chasing a serial drama, the previous episode sneaked into a private villa, the next episode was imprisoned for theft, you say the stab is not exciting?
For example, the story runs through three seasons.
In the first season of the Evil Spirit Prison chapter, the wizard Qian Haiming drove a car and killed a family of three, fearing that the ghost would ask for his life, he imprisoned the ghost in the basement of his villa. The Escape Six arrives here to solve the mystery of the haunted villa and help the ghosts to go to Hades smoothly.
In the second season of the Mental Hospital chapter, Qian Haiming becomes an evil ghost after his death, and attaches himself to the body of Wang Joy, a member of the "Love Ghost Society", causing him to kill three of his companions. The Gang of Six escaped from a mental hospital and experienced a bloody storm that dispelled Qian Haiming's evil spirits and rescued Wang Joy.
In the third season of the Dark Villa chapter, Chihae-ming adopts a son, Young Master Tenma, in the name of a priest, who founded the Thousand Ages Sect, which is based on the doctrine of sacrificing thousands of wronged souls in order to live forever. The Gang of Six came to the Dark Villa, found the information left by the Ghost Love Society squad, and with the help of some wronged spirits, killed Young Master Pegasus, and the Gang of Six escaped successfully.
In addition to the plot, the educational significance behind this variety show is also worth pondering.
Sisters who have played escape room know that the plot supported by the backstory will be wonderful, but many themes are very hollow, only pursuing thrillers, excitement, supernatural and so on.
Of course, these classic genres "The Great Escape" also exist, but what is commendable is the theme arrangement related to environmental protection concepts, social current affairs, high-tech, and parent-child relationships.
The grand finale story of the first season, "Sun Girl", is set in a high school controlled by cult forces. The students were brutally killed as tributes to the superstitious sacrifices, and the guests were tasked with rescuing the students and escaping from the closed school and the clutches of the cult.
The bunker theme of the first season and the murder prison theme of the second season show the influence of parent-child relationship on the growth of children in the storyline of the Chamber of Secrets.
The theme set of "Future University" not only reflects the curiosity of the crew to maintain an alien civilization, but also expresses the appeal and sense of responsibility for protecting the earth's environment through the mouth of aliens.
The plot related to the scene decryption is included in the last episode of each season - Before & After.
The "predecessors" who have been remodeled are diverse, from dilapidated villas halfway up the mountainside, air raid shelters built for 50 years, abandoned schools, and so on. The Evil Spirit Prison was an ordinary sun room in the old villa, which was transformed into a spooky doll room.
Including the lifting device that gave the audience sensory stimulation in the first period, it was also built by the program team itself.
The program team spent a lot of effort on the props set, and the production funds invested were also the most in tvN's variety shows, of course, the final results were also very good.
The program team also invited a large number of professional actors to play roles such as zombies and patients, and the special effects makeup was realistic and maddening.
Even the inconspicuous props in the corner and the makeup of the group performance without many shots were meticulously completed.
It is precisely because all the details of the "The Great Escape" program have been so extreme that it can be called a god-level variety show by fans.
Speaking of this, Bajie will recommend another variety show to everyone: "The Prisoner is You".
Also launched in 2018, "The Prisoner Is You" is a variety show produced by South Korean Netflix, co-produced by PD Jang Hyuk-jae, Cho Hyo-jin, Kim Joo-hyung and others from "X-Man", "Birth of a Family" and "Running Man".
The guests are composed of national host Yoo Jae-seok, funny artist Lee Kwang-so, actor Park Min-young, singer Ahn Jae-wook, Captain Ko Yoo-tae Kim Jong-min (yes, it's him again), EXO member Oh Se-hoon, singer Kim Sai-jong and others, the show is mainly based on finding prisoners, the detective team can win by solving puzzles and completing tasks, which is a live-action detective variety show.
Every issue of "The Prisoner Is You" has a case that the detective team needs to solve, and each case is very interesting.
Such as the magician who died mysteriously, the island controlled by vampires, the curse of the witch, the private secret of the president, the woman who called her friends after death, the serial murderer who left a flower next to the deceased...
In order to better present the case, the producer will invite special guests to star every time.
Each season's flying guest lineup is very strong, not only actors and love beans, but also celebrities from the industry such as funny artists and models.
The third season has aired on January 22, 2021, with Lee Kwang-so and Lee Seung-ki returning and Ahn Jae-wook quitting the detective team.
Guests from the third season include EXO captain Kim Joon-min, SF9 member Kim Lu-yun, Watch Yi-jin, Huang Paula, Song Ji-hyo and so on.
Unfortunately, this is also the final season of this variety show, and the detective team will finally uncover the covered vicious conspiracy and draw a satisfactory end to the entire variety show.
"The Great Escape" and "The Prisoner Is You" are both very conscientious god-level variety shows, which are very good must-have programs for killing time.
And the fourth season of "The Great Escape" is about to return, the little sisters who have not seen it, what are you waiting for, hurry up and catch up!
