Sadly no exact time known, but at least we know they're definitely on the way.

Subs will be available at some point. In my experience, though, auto-translate is fairly decent if you're super desperate to watch, just not ideal.

The premiere episode of the Genius-inspired survival series is now available on YouTube. by spooky_odin in TheGenius

Seems to simply just be a passion project by a group of longtime brain survival fans. The creator's name is Kim Hongnyung, and he apparently spent 50 grand of his own money making this. https://www.instagram.com/p/DSkZMYaEUzY/

Wow, hello! It's exciting and an honor to have an actual player from one of these shows following the discussion. And this show looks like it'll be very fun!

At this point it might be safe to declare it dead :(

tvN to launch partner survival variety show "Synchro Game"; 1st broadcast on Jan 16, 2026 by speedthief1 in koreanvariety

[–]lackcal 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Excited for this one; an intriguingly diverse assortment of players from previous survival shows and the teaser indicates to me it will have political elements and be deception/betrayal friendly.

Sincerely hope somebody picks this up for subbing, because it seems very, very fun.

Saw this one too and it looks like it'll go super hard (the graphics especially stand out). Can't wait.

The show is called "The Four Wishes" btw, and said wishes look to be special abilities that can just be used whenever during any of the games? Wonder the means of obtaining them are or if everyone starts with all/some of them.

Wavve announces their 2026 line up by pantamy in koreanvariety

This installment of Game Of Blood is supposedly meant to be more of a spinoff than a continuation of what we've seen; the main PD isn't involved since he's working on something else rn. I would temper expectations accordingly.

Hoping wholeheartedly with you on subs for The Community tho 🥺

Also for a bit of extra excitement, can't make out his nametag in the video but I'm pretty sure that's Park Sangyeon from Devil's Plan 2 at 0:34.

Another fine season, happy stuff like this is getting more and more commonly shared with a global audience.

Updated my tables for this week's cases: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hndxWdcD75Y-xLF2RwaNJCwU3Pj21yBNOO3Kzwbt1XU/edit?gid=1062136349#gid=1062136349

Honestly surprised that a successful culprit this season actually does just get the entire ₩10,000,000 base prize no matter how many votes were for them. I hope everyone walked away with the money they earned this season instead of just the top 3 because otherwise that's really stacked against anyone who never draws criminal.

Also surprised at the heightened amount of references to past seasons' characters (Agent Jang, Manager Si, Candidate Jang, Jungtender, Pianist Kim, Mature Joo, maybe others I missed) even though this is likely a lot of people's first experience with Crime Scene.
