Popular actor Byeon Woo-seok has officially joined the cast of Netflix's highly anticipated reality series "Jae-seok's BB Rules!" (working title), where he will work alongside veteran comedian and TV host Yoo Jae-suk and actor Lee Kwang-soo in running a guesthouse. The show represents a significant milestone for Byeon, marking his first fixed role in a reality television program.
The upcoming series is being directed by Jung Hyo-min, who has established a strong reputation in the guesthouse reality genre through his previous work on JTBC's "Hyori's Bed and Breakfast" and Netflix's "Kian's Bizarre BB." Production began actively recruiting guests in July, setting the stage for what promises to be an entertaining collaboration between established and emerging stars.
Yoo Jae-suk, who previously captivated audiences with his natural chemistry and hosting skills on SBS's "Family Outing," will take on the central role of camp host in this new venture. He will be personally responsible for welcoming guests and ensuring they have a memorable experience at the guesthouse. His participation brings considerable star power and experience to the project.
Joining Yoo in this endeavor is Lee Kwang-soo, his longtime partner from the popular variety show "Running Man," ensuring that their well-established on-screen chemistry will be a major draw for viewers. The addition of Byeon Woo-seok, who gained international recognition and a massive following through his starring role in the hit drama "Lovely Runner," adds a fresh dynamic to the cast lineup.
Producer Lee So-min expressed enthusiasm about the casting choices, stating, "With a duo that combines familiarity and novelty, we expect to create cheerful synergy and even richer chemistry." The producer also hinted that additional staff members would be revealed in the coming weeks, suggesting that the cast may continue to expand.
On September 5, entertainment reports surfaced claiming that singer Lee Hyo-ri would also be joining the show's cast. However, a Netflix official quickly clarified the situation the following day, explaining, "It was only an idea discussed in a meeting. We have not made an offer to Lee Hyo-ri." This clarification helped dispel speculation while leaving open the possibility of future casting announcements.
The casting news has generated significant excitement among fans and viewers online, with social media buzzing with positive reactions. Comments from enthusiastic fans include "I expected it since the producer also worked on Hyori's Bed and Breakfast," "Lee Kwang-soo makes it a dream lineup," and "With Yoo Jae-suk and Byeon Woo-seok together, it's unmissable." The overwhelmingly positive response suggests strong viewer interest in the upcoming series.
"Jae-seok's BB Rules!" is currently scheduled for release sometime in 2026, giving production ample time to develop the concept and capture compelling content. The show's format promises to showcase the natural interactions and chemistry between the cast members as they navigate the challenges and joys of running a guesthouse together.
