Producer Na Young-seok has once again proven why he is the master of unexpected variety show twists. During a live broadcast on his YouTube channel, he completely surprised Park Seo-joon, Choi Woo-shik, and Jung Yu-mi by announcing that they would immediately begin filming a new project titled Youth Over Flowers: Limited Edition.

What made the moment even more shocking was the timing. The trio had no prior preparation, no packed bags, and no detailed schedule. Na PD revealed that they would be leaving right after the livestream, following the classic surprise format that originally made Youth Over Flowers a massive hit. The new “Limited Edition” version comes with strict rules, including a tight daily budget of 100,000 won per person and limited planning freedom.

The actors’ reactions quickly became the highlight of the broadcast. Park Seo Joon looked visibly stunned, Jung Yu Mi burst into laughter, and Choi Woo Shik jokingly praised Na PD’s “acting skills,” hinting that he had completely fallen for the setup. Their natural chemistry made the entire moment feel spontaneous and authentic, which is exactly what fans love about Na Young Seok’s variety concepts.

The casting itself is already generating major excitement. Park Seo Joon and Choi Woo Shik share a well-known friendship and have worked together before, while Jung Yu Mi has previously collaborated with Na PD on multiple projects. Their easygoing bond promises fun banter, chaotic travel moments, and heartfelt conversations once the journey officially begins.

Unlike the original overseas backpacking trips, this version is expected to focus on domestic travel while maintaining the franchise’s core concept of tight budgeting and unpredictable situations. That mix of friendship, improvisation, and financial limitations is what turned the original series into a fan favorite.

Clips from the livestream quickly spread across social media, with fans expressing excitement over the trio’s genuine shock. Many viewers are especially curious to see how the group will handle the strict budget and spontaneous departure without preparation.

With Na Young Seok at the helm and three beloved stars on board, Youth Over Flowers Limited Edition is already shaping up to be one of the most talked-about variety projects. If the surprise announcement is any indication, viewers can expect laughter, travel chaos, and plenty of unforgettable friendship moments.
