KBS will be airing the special reality youth drama "Jungle Fish" for 'family month'.

A jungle fish is a fish that lived in the African beach but was dropped into the jungle by a whirlwind. It hints at the situation of present-day youth who suffer from entrance exams to return to the beach (the future).

The drama will reenact last year's scandal of leaked test forms for Gimpo Foreign Language High School's and this year's scandal of leaked problems for the national scholastic assessment test.

The form of the drama is solving the scandal with a personal blog. It will also be like a documentary, using real clips from news and internet videos, and street interviews.

Park Bo-yeong, who was the younger version of Koo Hye-seon in SBS "King and I" and Min-ji of the movie "Forever the Moment" will star. Hwang Chan-seong from MBC sitcom "High Kick!" and singer Kim C will also join.

It will air early May.

Two leading variety shows on KBS TV, 'Happy Together Season 3' and 'One Night and Two Days', a popular segment on 'Happy Sunday', are more popular than ever this cold winter season.

'One Night and Two Days' features various 'road trip adventures' that take place when the main cast members Kang Ho-dong, Kim C, Eun Ji-won, Lee Soo-keun, Lee Seung-gi and MC Mong leave for remote destinations, including small mountain villages and islands, for one night and two days.

They say first loves never die, and "For Eternal Hearts" immortalizes onscreen the allure and power of youthful passions. Dreams and remembrances delightfully converge in this haunting love story that transcends the borders of life and death, and leaps over the passage of time.

Su-yeong (Jeong Jin-yeong) is a quiet, middle-aged professor of German literature at a local university. At the request of his students, he reminiscently recounts his first love that stole his heart during his college days. As a young man Su-yeong was shy, naive and studious (Jeong Kyeong-ho). But his life is forever changed when he meets the wild and eccentric "Pippi" (Kim Min-seon).

He is crushed, however, when Pippi commits suicide in the name of love. But Pippi magically reappears before him and life starts to take a bizarre turn. It is believed here that when a person dies, the soul wanders around for 49 days before making the final passage to the other world. If it f...| More
