KBS announced on the 20th, “Kim Seon-tae has been selected as the sole host of the new program ‘Don Seon-tae’s Era of Success.’”
Kim Seon-tae is a YouTuber and former civil servant who was in charge of public relations for Chungju City. During his time as a civil servant, he gained popularity by appearing in content on the Chungju City YouTube channel, earning him the nickname “Chungju Man.” After retiring, he launched his personal YouTube channel, “Kim Seon-tae.” The channel attracted significant attention by surpassing 1 million subscribers just three days after its launch.
“Don Seon-tae’s Era of Success” is a program in which Kim Seon-tae invites individuals who have written their own success stories to his rented apartment in Seoul to engage in conversation and ask them about the secrets to their success. Starting on the 29th, new episodes will be released every Wednesday on KBS’s official YouTube channel, “KBS Entertain.”
KBS stated, “We aim to create a program that goes beyond simply showcasing the results of success to also highlight the failures, struggles, unexpected choices, and human moments that led to that success,” adding, “Kim Seon-tae’s signature, incisive questions will be a key highlight for viewers.”
