Premiering on July 26, the SBS program "Jecheolri Family" is a regional symbiotic real variety show where five young adults from the city visit a rural village to share their talents and create a day together with the residents. Moving away from consuming rural areas as one-time experience destinations, it focuses on the process where urban talents and rural warmth meet to fulfill one another.

The cast lineup is also stellar. Announcer Kim Dae-ho, known as the "brainy leader", leads the "Jecheolri Youth Association" with his life skills and friendliness, while singer Song Gain, the "talented singer vice president", takes charge of the seniors' excitement. In addition, Chef Park Eun-young, the "good at cooking older sister", prepares a meal using local ingredients, OH MY GIRL's HYOJUNG, the "super-positive older sister", adds her unique energy, and the youngest member Jonathan brings delightful clumsy charm.

Furthermore, TOMORROW X TOGETHER (TXT) member SOOBIN and CRAVITY member HYEONGJUN have been recruited as special supporters, completing a chemistry that spans across generations.

After finishing the first shoot, Song Gain expressed deep satisfaction, saying, "I would have regretted it if I hadn't come", while supporter HYEONGJUN also shared the exceptional teamwork on set, saying, "I would feel disappointed if another guest comes next time."

Delivering human touch and heartwarming laughter, SBS "Jecheolri Family" will air every Sunday at 11:00 AM starting July 26.
