Lee Kwang Soo, Byeon Woo Seok, And Ji Ye Eun Join Yu Jae Seok For Hectic First Day Of Campsite Life In “Jae Seok’s B&B Rules!”

Netflix’s camping variety show “Jae Seok’s B&B Rules!” is finally set to unveil its first episodes!

“Jae Seok’s B&B Rules!” follows Yu Jae Seok as he takes on the challenge of running a bed-and-breakfast for the very first time. Joined by Lee Kwang Soo, Byeon Woo Seok, and Ji Ye Eun as staff members, they welcome guests and create memorable moments filled with laughter, chaos, and heartfelt warmth.

“Jae Seok’s B&B Rules!” will officially premiere Episodes 1 through 5 on May 26.

The newly released episodes will follow the team as they desperately struggle to prepare for their very first guests while trying to survive an intense 24-hour schedule. From inspecting the campsite facilities to organizing supplies, the staff members throw themselves into every task, showcasing their sincerity and enthusiasm for welcoming guests.

Previously released preview clip showcased the cast’s hilarious chemistry as they gathered to decide the camp menu. Yu Jae Seok’s sandwich, Lee Kwang Soo’s kimchi stew, Byeon Woo Seok’s rolled omelet, and Ji Ye Eun’s spicy stir-fried pork sparked brutally honest reactions even before the tasting began.

However, despite their overflowing enthusiasm, the campsite quickly turns into nonstop chaos. Unexpected numbers of guests and the surprise appearance of a familiar face leave the team completely flustered. On top of that, trouble erupts during their first attempt at preparing large-scale meals—including food nearly burning in the kitchen—while the exhausting, nonstop schedule pushes the staff to their limits.

With an action-packed itinerary that includes an opening ceremony, missions, games, a campfire, and talent shows, anticipation is growing over whether the team will successfully survive their very first day.

The program’s producers shared, “One of the key fun points will be watching the staff members, who are running a campsite for the first time, stumble through the hectic schedule and learn through trial and error. Please look forward to seeing how they gradually adapt despite their inexperience.”

It took TWS just one day to smash their personal sales record with their latest release!

On April 27, TWS made their return with their new mini album “NO TRAGEDY” and its upbeat title track “You, You.”

According to Hanteo Chart, “NO TRAGEDY” sold an impressive total of 833,138 copies on its first day of sales alone—managing to surpass the total sales record of TWS’s previous mini album “play hard” (which had sold a total of approximately 740,000 albums as of last month) within just one day.

Uhm Hyun Kyung Receives Unexpected Gift From Yoon Da Young On First Day As Intern In “Our Happy Days”

Uhm Hyun Kyung begins her intern life in “Our Happy Days”!

“Our Happy Days” is a warm family series filled with stories from multiple generations, centering on a tense clash between the world’s most perfect man and an endearingly clumsy woman—each striving to become the main character of their own life.

Spoilers

In the previous episode, Jo Eun Ae (Uhm Hyun Kyung) clashed with Go Gyeol (Yoon Jong Hun), who offered her a position as an intern at Kang Soo Construction in place of legal punishment. She ultimately decided to accept the offer after discovering a critical loophole in the Lucky Joy Tech acquisition contract—one that excludes her senior-focused AI “Joy” from the transfer terms. With that, Jo Eun Ae officially sets her plan in motion to reclaim “Joy.”

Newly released stills show Jo Eun Ae on her first day as an intern at Kang Soo Construction, where she quickly finds herself caught up in a series of chaotic situations. In one set of stills, Jo Eun Ae is confronting Han Ji Hoon (Seo Dong Kyu), a former co-CEO of Lucky Joy Tech, in a heated exchange. She threatens to expose the fact that he sold off the company, while Go Gyeol inadvertently overhears their conversation.

Meanwhile, another set of stills captures Jo Eun Ae sharing a meal with Seo Seung Ri (Yoon Da Young). As a senior colleague, Seo Seung Ri warmly welcomes Jo Eun Ae on her first day, even presenting her with a thoughtful gift. With this unexpected gesture, attention is turning to how Jo Eun Ae’s undercover office life will unfold moving forward.
