Suspicious Guesthouse: An Unforgettable Trip — After their remarkable performances on Unforgettable Duet *, participants living with dementia continue their journey beyond the stage—this time as guesthouse managers, welcoming their own families for a special vacation. At the heart of this extraordinary guesthouse are celebrity owners Ko Woo-ri (“The Boss”) and Park Kyung-ho (“Vice Boss”), who guide, support, and work alongside managers whose memories may be fading, but whose hearts remain full. Together, they prepare rooms, plan heartfelt surprises, cook meals, and create once-in-a-lifetime moments for the very people who have stood by them for years. Through laughter, small mishaps, emotional reunions, and unexpected breakthroughs, the series uncovers untold stories while asking a profound question: How should our society walk alongside those living with dementia? In Suspicious Guesthouse, we witness something powerful—a reminder that dementia does not mean everything is lost. It may, in fact, mark the beginning of a new and unforgettable chapter.
Along with Unforgettable Duet and Suspicious Guest House, other formats they are taking to MIP London are Iron Squad, an elite military competition program; comedy travel reality series Hit & Miss Tour; transformational reality series transformational reality series Make Me Glow; spooky reality competition Still Alive; and more.

We are especially excited to debut Suspicious Guesthouse, which is a fun, lighter spinoff of our more heartwarming successful show Unforgettable Duet.
