SBS Special "Monggul", premiering in March, follows these young adults as they experience first love. The program is a new project from PD Go Hye-rin, who received a Baeksang Arts Award for “Special-Hakjeon.”
Married for 14 years, Lee Hyo-ri and Lee Sang-soon will lead the show as heads of the “Monggul,” serving as dating coaches for the participants (called “Monggul-ssi”). From picking outfits for blind dates to mapping out date courses, the duo will share hard-earned tips to make each Monggul-ssi’s sparkling moments shine even brighter.
Known for her candid, witty talk, Lee Hyo-ri brings that same bold charm to “Monggul.” She eases first-meeting jitters with playful banter and sparks lively conversation with her straightforward style. Expect unfiltered, real-talk dating chats as her chemistry with the Monggul-ssi builds episode by episode.
The show will also reveal Lee Sang-soon’s quietly powerful dating know-how―the kind that won over Lee Hyo-ri. With a thoughtful, calm approach, he empathizes deeply with the stories of sleepless, love-struck youth. He’ll share practical advice, from crafting date itineraries to ways to win someone’s heart, proving to be an all-around MVP.
Most of all, fans can look forward to the real-life chemistry of the 14-year couple. Their natural back-and-forth promises warm laughs at the "Monggul".
This spring, SBS Special Monggul" aims to break stereotypes and deliver both butterflies and healing, with its first broadcast set for March.
