‘Bbang Bbang Earth Arcade’ Returns for a Thrilling Third Season
The highly popular variety show ‘Bbang Bbang Earth Arcade’ (뿅뿅 지구오락실) is set to make a grand return with its third season, premiering on April 25, 2025, at 8:40 PM KST on tvN. This new season features four brave warriors—Lee Eun-ji (이은지), Mimi (미미), Lee Young-ji (이영지), and An Yu-jin (안유진)—who team up to capture a moon rabbit that has escaped to Earth, embarking on a unique hybrid multiverse action-adventure journey.
The previous season, ‘Bbang Bbang Earth Arcade 2’, achieved remarkable success, ranking first in viewer preference with a 4% rating in a survey conducted by Gallup Korea in June 2023. This marked a significant milestone as it was the first time a female-led entertainment program topped the list since the survey began in 2013. Additionally, every episode dominated the ratings for the 2049 demographic across cable and general programming channels, showcasing its explosive popularity.
In February, a teaser video featuring the ‘Earth Wizard’ generated significant buzz, heightening anticipation for the upcoming season. This time, the cast transforms into secret agents determined to capture the elusive Torongi, who has made off with the Heavenly Emperor's corporate credit card.
The first teaser released hints at a spy action film vibe, introducing the agents with code names: An Yu-jin as ‘An Yu-myeong’, Lee Eun-ji as ‘Lee Yong-soo’, Lee Young-ji as ‘Lee Yong-cheol’, and Mimi as ‘Kim Mi-gwan’. The agents are seen stealthily navigating through Seoul and beyond, adding to the intrigue.
A particularly humorous scene unfolds when Lee Eun-ji, detecting a floral scent in Abu Dhabi, dramatically claims, “There’s poison in this!” This prompts An Yu-jin and Lee Young-ji to join in, resulting in comedic chaos. Meanwhile, while tracking Torongi in Lisbon, the agents encounter the enigmatic producer Na Young-seok (나영석), who humorously denies his identity, further enhancing the comedic element.
The main poster, released alongside the teaser, captures the members in their secret agent personas in a vibrant pop art style, showcasing their unique weapons—ranging from megaphones to cameras, smartphones, and even chocolate—symbolizing their determination to find Torongi.
Additionally, a mysterious visit to Albufeira is teased, promising an exciting operation as the secret agents Lee Eun-ji, Mimi, Lee Young-ji, and An Yu-jin gear up for their mission. Don’t miss the premiere of ‘Bbang Bbang Earth Arcade 3’ on April 25, 2025, at 8:40 PM KST on tvN.
