The new Korean variety show My Name Is Gabriel episode 1 will be released in June 2024 on JTBC and Disney Plus. Wonderland movie actor Park Bo-Gum and Welcome to Samdal-ri star Ji Chang-Wook will star in the upcoming reality series.
Infinite Challenge fame PD Kim Tae Ho brings a new concept to the variety show world with My Name Is Gabriel. The celebrities step in someone else’s shoes to go through a different experience. They are away from the spotlight in a place where nobody recognizes them. Some of the locations include Chiang Mai, Guadalajara, Chongqing, and Dublin.
The show’s synopsis reads, “A program where you live ‘the real life of that person’ for 72 hours under the name of one of the world’s 8 billion people in a place where no one knows you.”
