Yum Jung Ah, Kim Sun-young, Kang You-seok, Noh Yoon-seo, 'Unnie's Direct from Farm 3'

tvN 'Unni's Direct from the Source Season 3' will premiere on July 30 at 8:40 PM with new faces. This season features actress Yum Jung Ah, who has been the center of the program since Season 1, joined by Kim Sun-young, Kang You-seok, and Roh Yoon-seo, forming a new 'four siblings' system with a different dynamic than before. Directed by PD Kim Se-hee, this variety show captures the vibrant life in local production areas and meals made using seasonal specialties from various parts of South Korea.

In the released preview for Episode 1, the four individuals are shown sailing on a boat against the backdrop of the blue sea. In particular, Kang You-seok, who takes on the role of captain this season, announces the departure by shouting, "Shall we run for it?" to which Yum Jung Ah, Kim Sun-young, and Roh Yoon-seo respond, creating a lively atmosphere. With the phrase 'Blue summer, Direct from the Source has arrived,' the return of the program, which has entered its third season, has begun.

From Sea Squirt to Eel, an Even Larger Lineup of Local Ingredients

One of the key entertainment elements of this season is the even more abundant seasonal ingredients. Through the trailer, various specialties to be sourced from all over the country were revealed in advance. Ingredients that whet the appetite just by hearing their names, such as sea squirt, eel, sea mustard, and garlic, appear in large numbers, raising curiosity about the fishing process and life in the production areas, which will unfold on a larger scale than previous seasons. The cast is expected to prepare seasonal meals with fresh crops they catch and harvest themselves while traveling across the country.

The program's major pillar is not just eating food, but the process of harvesting it by using one's body directly. From seafood like sea squirts and eels to agricultural products like garlic, the fishing methods that highlight the characteristics of various production areas are expected to deliver a vivid sense of realism to viewers. The production team explained that this season will unfold new stories of the four siblings against a backdrop of even more diverse production areas and ingredients.

The Four Siblings' Tiki-taka Bursting Amidst Hard Labor

Hard labor in the field serves as a device to make the bond between the cast members even stronger. In the preview video, the uninhibited conversations among the cast members caught the eye. When Yum Jung Ah started a role-play by saying, "Looking closely, the lady (ajumma) doesn't even work and only talks," Kim Sun-young immediately shot back, "I'm the one who introduced you, why are you being like this, really?" making the scene a sea of laughter. This, combined with Kang You-seok's sly reactions and the youngest, Roh Yoon-seo's bright laughter, created an atmosphere like a real family.

The production team stated that the chemistry of the four people, who do not lose their laughter even amidst hard labor, and their unpredictable moments will provide variety entertainment. Beyond simple cooperation, the 'real family' moments revealed in the process of teasing and responding to each other are the main points of interest for this season. Especially since a group of skilled actors has gathered, the role-playing and conversations that occur naturally on site are expected to approach viewers in a friendly manner.
