Mainly what you are watching except for sjtv and prison.

I would also recommend busted season 1 and 2 but i am not sure if it counts as a variety show, a mix i guess.

[emptycup]

Coffee friends, Village survival, The great escape, Youns kitchen, Hyoris bed & breakfast, I live alone.​

 

[blueberries]

I like competition shows most like Queendom, Hit the Stage, Girl Spirit, Unit..

But from variety shows Running Man

From idol/group specific 2NE1 TV and 2PM Show are really good.

 

[Andrea]

Pointing out that I haven't really watched all the variety shows I mentioned in the first post, they just seemed to be the most popular around. I watched a few Weekly Idol and Idol Room episodes and they were really funny. Good to see so many recommendations!

 

[Darkseid]

There's honestly nothing better than Knowing Bros. The cast is so fun and their chemistry and inside jokes and long running gags are legendary. Janghoon's divorce jokes, Sangmin's debt problems, Lee Soogeun's gambling addiction, Hodong's Star King past, Youngchul's no-jam persona, Heechul's flirtiness or Kyunghoon's pervertedness, everything gets made fun of. I don't even need guests or idols to appear on an episode to enjoy it lol.

They've kinda toned down their jokes and innuendoes now compared to earlier episodes because they moved to a more primetime slot where they reach more viewers, compared to their earlier late night airings. And they don't do their skits anymore, I wish they brought those back. Still great though. It's also given us some amazing music videos from the cast members lmao.

 

[Taeyellow]

The ones i like to watch are Idol room, weekly Idol, knowing brothers, running man and radio star, radio star depends on who's invited but i simply watch running man and knowing brothers because they're so funny

 

[Andrea]

I like competition shows most like Queendom, Hit the Stage, Girl Spirit, Unit.

Is there any competition show going on right now? (female artists if possible)
Or maybe one you particularly suggest me to check first?

I don't think there is at the moment, but Queendom just ended. If you weren't following that I still recommend checking it out, lot of good content. And there is talks of Queendom season 2 ^^

EDIT: Though ofc some longer shows like Immortal Songs and the Masked Singer are probably still on going, but i'm less familiar with them.
