It is a variety show that is set in the countryside. The stars have to stay together for 24 hours and try to solve a mystery that lies within the village. During their time there, they play different games and compete with one another. For some, their competitiveness starts to show. Son Dam Bi gets competitive while playing volleyball. However, her opponents aren't easy either. Some of the hottest stars shine in the show by making an appearance. BLACKPINK's Jennie, Im Soo Hyang, Jang Do Yeon are some of them. Stay tuned for the mysterious variety show that will spark both humor and reasoning. (Source: Kocowa) Edit Translation

I found this show while searching for variety tv similar to Crime Scene. Although Crime Scene was still better in terms of being mysterious, thrilling, and wholesome in clue-finding with deductions, Village Survival The Eight was still fun and have some parts that are thrilling.

Village Survival, The Eight had a unique format but I find the title weird because it was not really about surviving. The show focuses on games that can win hints and finding the hidden money. There are some parts where it was boring to my taste especially when they were shown preparing for lunch and dinner but the clue finding and revealing of the person who found the money saves it and made up for those times. It's still a fun season full of laughs especially in the first 4 episodes where I found myself crying from laughter especially because of Do Yean and Dam Bi. Those two are my favorites in the show. The last episodes were kind of boring but the ending made up for it. I'm looking forward to watching season 2!

Welcome to Michuri... Mystery or go crazy

Village Survival, the Eight Season 1 is exactly the kind of chaos I live for as a K-variety show fan. The format is weird in the best way, the mind games, the trickery, and the cast chemistry all worked so well for me. Though the games are a bit repetitive. It also helped a lot that I already know most of the cast from other shows, plus the little cultural references and slang sprinkled in. Those made the jokes land harder and gave me a solid ab workout from laughing.

For newbies in the K-variety world, this might feel a bit confusing or even flat at times. But for someone like me who’s been living in this world for years, this show is definitely my cup of tea. It’s not on the same level as my holy trinity of Running Man and Busted, but it’s still a very fun ride that uses actual brains… sometimes more than the cast wants to admit.

Getting access to it was the real survival game though. It’s not widely available in my region, so imagine my joy when I finally found it. And honestly? Worth it. If you know at least 1 to 3 cast members, give this a try. It’s easy to finish in a day and it left me cackling and very ready for Season 2.
