KBS is getting ready to shake up its 2025 spring variety lineup, and one of the most talked-about shows is Park Bo Gum’s Cantabile!

On March 7, KBS held a press conference at the KBS International Conference Room in Yeouido, Seoul, to introduce its upcoming variety programs. Several CPs (chief producers) attended the event, including Park Seok-hyung, who is directing Park Bo Gum’s Cantabile.

During the event, CP Park Seok-hyung explained why Park Bo Gum was chosen as the host. "Having Park Bo Gum as the MC was a bit of a challenge for us. Respect is crucial in a music talk show, and we felt that Park Bo Gum, with his deep love for music, would be able to communicate well with musicians."

This decision is a big first for KBS—until now, the network’s signature music talk show, The Seasons, has always been hosted by singers.

Now, with an actor like Park Bo Gum taking the lead, the show is expected to bring a new and refreshing vibe to the genre.

Alongside Park Bo Gum’s Cantabile, KBS is bringing back some beloved shows and exciting new programs:

Kang Ho Dong will return as the host of Study and Nolbu, a quiz talk show for parents and children.

The Problematic Men of the Rooftop Room, which ran for seven years starting in 2018, is making a comeback.

Ballunteer will feature former soccer star Lee Young-pyo and singer Lee Chan-won as they take on hilarious futsal challenges.

Actress Lee Min-jung will host Going and Coming Lee Min-jung, a wholesome rural reality show where she sells goods with other actors.

Meanwhile, KBS’s legendary comedy show Gag Concert is officially returning on March 16, moving to prime time on Sundays at 9:20 PM KST.

Here’s when you can catch these exciting new and returning shows:
Park Bo Gum’s Cantabile – Every Friday at 10 PM KST, starting March 14
