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.
