In an exciting new variety show, aespa’s Winter and (G)-IDLE’s Miyeon take on the challenges of rural life in City Z Goes to the Countryside, a program set to air on channel ENA. The show offers viewers a fresh glimpse into the lives of these popular Gen Z celebrities as they step away from the stage and into the countryside.
City Z Goes to the Countryside is designed to capture the essence of rural living, presenting both the charms and challenges that come with it. Hosted by a dynamic group of entertainers—Yang Se Chan, Lee Eun Ji, Lee Yi Kyung, Song Geon Hee, and Jeong Dong Won—the show also features special guest appearances from various Gen Z stars, starting with Winter and Miyeon.
A New Side of Winter and Miyeon
In recently released stills from the show, Winter is seen smiling brightly as she showcases her cooking skills, expertly handling a large knife to remove the head of a fish. Dressed in rubber gloves, she demonstrates a side of herself that fans rarely get to see.
Miyeon, on the other hand, embraces the rural setting with joy and enthusiasm. She is pictured dancing in a creek, wearing a straw hat, and bringing laughter to those around her. Her lively energy and willingness to immerse herself in countryside life stand out in these scenes.
The production team behind the show has emphasized that both Winter and Miyeon leave behind their glamorous stage personas to fully embrace the life of rural Gen Z-ers. According to the team, fans can expect to see a completely new side of the two idols as they undergo a transformation into “rural Gen Z-ers.”
The Hosts: A Perfect Blend of Comedy and Chemistry
The hosts of City Z Goes to the Countryside—Yang Se Chan, Lee Eun Ji, Lee Yi Kyung, Song Geon Hee, and Jeong Dong Won—bring a unique blend of personalities and styles to the show. A recently revealed poster shows the five hosts relaxing on the porch of a traditional Hanok (a traditional Korean house), dressed in a mix of casual T-shirts, checkered shirts, and loose shorts. Their relaxed attire reflects a combination of practicality and style, fitting the rural vacation theme of the show.
Despite being a newly formed team, the five hosts exhibit natural chemistry. Yang Se Chan and Lee Eun Ji are expected to bring plenty of humor to the show, while Lee Yi Kyung promises engaging entertainment. Song Geon Hee, participating in a variety show for the first time, along with the multi-talented Jeong Dong Won, adds to the dynamic mix. Viewers are looking forward to seeing how these city dwellers will navigate the countryside lifestyle.
What to Expect from City Z Goes to the Countryside
The production team has shared that viewers should brace themselves for a non-stop comedy experience as these city-born celebrities adapt to rural culture. They hope the show will become a new family favorite, providing entertaining Sunday evening viewing for audiences of all ages.
City Z Goes to the Countryside is set to premiere on September 8 at 8:30 PM KST (5:00 PM IST). The show promises to be a delightful mix of laughter, charm, and a new perspective on rural living.
