The Great Escape
대탈출
Watch first
Description & thoughts
A variety show produced by JJY documenting the hardships and laughter of six brave boys as they challenge various escape "rooms". "Rooms" is in quotes because as the series progresses, the production value and scope balloon. Six escapes per season, plus a bonus BTS special at the end of each season. After some time inactive, a reboot not led by JJY (with only half the OG cast) aired in 2025. Both The Great Escape and Girls' High Mystery Class are part of a canon known as the DTCU (DaeTalChul Universe) — it's extremely recommended these two be watched in broadcast order.
