Directors excelled in different fields. There were the veterans in the film industry—already established, with their own fanbase and distinctive styles.
Others were new faces, specializing in dramas that were trendy among the youth.
And of course, there were also genius directors for variety shows. A lot of long-running variety shows had a spot in primetime TV; however, Gene PD had created a storm with seasonal variety shows—specifically, competitive/survival reality shows focused on different fields.
It started with Body to Body 100, the brutal test of physical power. Then came Single's Hell, a dating show that promised games, lies, and love.
Then, at the peak of Gene PD's career—which was only last year—a teaser dropped. Blood-red letters spelling out Lucy's Game, with no explanation and just a date.
Naturally, people tuned in because they already knew of Gene PD's prowess. It wasn't long before the nation was glued to their screens.
