Watch: Lee Eun Ji, Mimi, Lee Young Ji, And An Yu Jin Open A Rice Cake Shop In “Earth Arcade” Spin-Off “Space Rice Cake”
Lee Eun Ji, Mimi, Lee Young Ji, and An Yu Jin are reuniting for tvN’s new variety show “Space Rice Cake”!
“Space Rice Cake” is a spin-off born from a punishment in “Earth Arcade 2.” After failing an escape room mission prepared by Torong, Lee Eun Ji, Mimi, Lee Young Ji, and An Yu Jin must work together at a rice cake shop.
The newly released poster features the four members who have just opened “Space Rice Cake” in Goheung. Featuring the slogan “Freshly made rice cakes for sale!” alongside an image of chewy garaetteok (long cylindrical rice cakes) and a retro-inspired design, the poster creates a warm and nostalgic atmosphere.
Adding to the fun is the tagline, “The shop may be full of burnout, but we’ll do our best to make sure our customers’ taste buds aren’t affected,” teasing the members’ chaotic adventures and signature teamwork as first-time rice cake shop employees.
The teaser opens with the bustling kitchen of “Space Rice Cake,” where the members begin making rice cakes as early as 5 a.m. Thick white steam quickly fills the kitchen, making it difficult to even see the members as they work.
The production staff then tells Lee Young Ji, who is serving as the head chef, “Young Ji, there’s still one thing you haven’t done.” However, neither she nor the other members can figure out what they’re referring to. Young Ji eventually realizes she forgot to turn on the ventilation fan and hurriedly switches it on, teasing the members’ adorably clumsy moments as they adjust to life working at the rice cake shop.
Watch the teaser below:
“Space Rice Cake” premieres on July 31 at 8:35 p.m. KST.

Watch: “Better Late Than Single 2” Introduces Contestants And Teases Drama Ahead In Exciting Trailer
Netflix has shared a new sneak peek of “Better Late Than Single 2”!
“Better Late Than Single” is a makeover-style dating show in which romantically inexperienced singles attempt to find first love. Seo In Guk; Kang Han Na; Car, the Garden; and Lee Eun Ji will all be returning as panelists for Season 2.
The newly released main poster and trailer introduce viewers to this season’s contestants, all of whom have zero dating experience and are looking to start their first-ever relationship.
Although the celebrity panelists initially find themselves bewildered and even frustrated by the contestants’ awkward and unpredictable behavior as they struggle to find their footing, the inexperienced singles later surprise them by making unexpected transformations as they boldly pursue love.
In terms of what will set Season 2 apart from Season 1, producing director (PD) Kim No Eun teased, “If the male contestants’ personalities stood out last season, the female contestants will have a major presence this season. Please look forward to the bold female contestants playing active roles.”
Meanwhile, PD Won Seung Jae remarked, “If Season 1 was like an educational program that cheered on the contestants’ growth while capturing the awkward moments that stemmed from their inexperience, Season 2 is closer to a true dating show.”
Check out the new poster and trailer for “Better Late Than Single 2” below!
“Better Late Than Single 2” will premiere on July 7.

Watch: Netflix’s Dating Show “Better Late Than Single 2” Announces Premiere Date With New Teaser
Netflix’s dating show “Better Late Than Single 2” has unveiled its first teaser!
“Better Late Than Single 2” is a makeover-style dating reality program about romantically inexperienced singles with zero experience but maximum expectations as they take on their first attempt at love. Returning as panels are Seo In Guk, Kang Han Na, Car, the Garden, and Lee Eun Ji.
The newly released teaser highlights the panels’ sharp reactions, signaling the return of the same endearingly awkward singles.
From a “melt-your-eardrum” boyfriend type who left Lee Eun Ji stunned, to a “fickle ideal-type” whose preferences change every day, to a “visual-obsessed type” who focuses solely on appearance, the lineup of romantically inexperienced participants adds to the curiosity. In addition, the panels’ blunt reaction, “Do whatever you want,” followed by the confident remark, “Let’s go on a reward vacation,” further raises expectations for the participants’ performance.
The teaser also hints at the arrival of game changers of a different kind. With the panels unanimously saying, “This season’s game changers are built different,” it remains to be seen what kind of impact the new participants will have, as well as how the singles’ first steps into dating will deliver both excitement and relatability.
