A new Netflix comedy show featuring renowned television personality and comedian Yu Jae-seok, as well as actors Lee Kwang-soo, Ji Ye-eun and Byeon Woo-seok, will premiere on the platform on May 26.

The program, titled “Jae-seok's B&B Rules,” will have the widely loved M.C. hosting a bed-and-breakfast [B&B] camping site and inviting guests to engage in a variety of events together.


Yu and Lee are original cast members of the popular SBS variety show “Running Man” (2010–), though Lee left the program in 2021. Ji joined “Running Man” in 2024.

Byeon is best known for starring in the tvN drama “Lovely Runner” (2024). He also appeared as a guest on “Running Man” and “Yoo Quiz on the Block” (2018–) in 2024 and on “Hangout with Yoo” (2019–) this year. Yu hosts both “Yoo Quiz on the Block” and “Hangout with Yoo.”

The upcoming show will be directed by producer Jung Hyo-min, who also helmed “Kian's Bizarre B&B” (2025).

“While other B&B [variety shows] mainly focus on providing [guests with] a place to stay and food to eat, this program centers on a large number of people staying together for two nights and engaging in different activities throughout the entire day,” producers of the show said in a press release on Tuesday, adding that “Jae-seok's B&B Rules” would “evoke the fun memories from summer camp.”

“Viewers will also be able to see a new side of Yu Jae-seok, who has strength in leading a large crowd,” the producers continued.
