Actors Cha Seung-won, Yu Hae-jin, and Son Ho-jun will return with the fifth season of “Three Meals a Day.”

Producer Na Young-seok had previously confirmed Cha and Son as the main cast members for the upcoming season, announcing it was difficult for Yu to join the show in the upcoming season due to the actor’s film commitments.

Yu, however, has rearranged his schedule to join the show and complete the “Manjaedo family,” local media reported Wednesday, quoting the production crew.


“Three Meals a Day” is a variety show featuring celebrities staying in a rural village or fishing village, where they have to source the ingredients for three meals each day. The first and third seasons took place in Jeongseon, Gangwon Province, and the second and fourth seasons took place on Manjaedo Island, Sinan-gun, South Jeolla Province, where Cha, Yu and Son demonstrated great chemistry. 

In Gochang, North Jeolla Province, the upcoming season will feature the three cast members along with a new fourth, actor and model Nam Joo-hyuk.

The fifth season of “Three Meals a Day” will be broadcast on tvN at 9:45 p.m. on Fridays, starting July 1.
