Variety show recommendations?

I'm currently watching "Roommate Season 2" and it's soooOoOoOo fun. I just love the cast. I was wondering if there are more variety shows like this that I never heard about.

I also somtimes watch Running Man, Hello Counselor, We Got Married, Law of the Jungle, Return of Superman. Yeah I think that's it. Any good recommendations? Thanks!

EDIT: There's a show on O'live that Roommate kin of bit off but it's not subbed so there you have it. OH JUST FOUND OUT IT MIGHT BE SUBBED. False alarm...

 

Infinity Challenge if you're willing to invest. It takes a while to warm up to the cast (For me, I started years ago so my learning curve was unique). However, it's a show that gets better and better. Personally though, I dislike some of the shows you've listed. I do not understand the hype that Roommates gets maybe it's because I really do not whore over celebs and I just do not care about them.

 

Family outing - it ended but still one of the best. Just freaking fantastic, I still rewatch. 

 

Abnormal Summit - Nearly forgot this one, but funny and refreshing. Features a foreigner cast fluent in Korean. Good topics are discussed and the cast is very entertaining.

 

Gag Concert - Another one that requires warming up but funny!

 

Running Man - A fan favorite, not so much for me but it is loved by variety noobs who whore over the cast. It has its funny moments but for me is a stagnating mess that I watch out of loyalty. What can I say? I love YJS.

 

1N2D - Another huge learning curve. It's been years and I am still trying to get into this. When I say years. I legitimately remember season one before the KHD scandal and I have over the years flitted inconsistently through it, but I have never committed. 

 

Superman is Back - Relatively cute and fun. A family variety that bit off appa odiga but it's still pretty cute. I could never get into Appa Odiga so this was a good alternative.

abnormal summit or the genius (second season sucked major though; first season was the best).

 

edit: both are subbed by bumdi (bxrme.tumblr.com), if you're interested. he also subbed crime scene, another interesting show.

 

edit 2: WAIT I JUST REALIZED YOU WERE LOOKING FOR VARIETY SHOWS SIMILAR TO ROOMMATE I'M SORRY

I'm also watching King of Food, it's like a quiz show but with amazing Korean food. I'm finding it pretty interesting and all the dae jang geum references are a total win for me as well.

 

Kpop star is really fun to watch as well.

 

I personally like wgm, but I know tht doesn't appeal to everyone.

 

Hello baby shinee and Super Junior exploration of the human body are classic kpop variety shows. They are hilarious and IMO must watches for all kpop fans.

 

A pink news is also super funny. It's what made me like the group so much, they are all hilarious and not in the usual kpop "dorky" way, whig is usually just to make an image IMO. These girls are really genuine and relatable.

 

Everything else that I have watched has already been mentioned. My Korean friends keep telling me to watch the genius, but I am way too soft hearted for anything that cruel
