JTBC's brand new survival show "Peak Time" will air its first two episodes on February 15, KST. The year 2020 was an unforgettable time for everyone, due to COVID-19 pandemic.
The pandemic didn't just affect people, but also daily life, ranging from businesses to distancing. JTBC's "Peak Time" aims to give a second chance to groups who were affected during 2020.
These groups went through drastic changes, since it either took form in member changes or sudden disbandment. The lineup didn't only include groups who were left out during the pandemic, but also ones that went through hiatus.
The show announced 23 groups, who are confirmed joining the program.
In the list, boy group 24K was mentioned. The group entered the K-pop scene in 2012, under Choeun Entertainment. Its members consist of Kiyoung, Imchan, Xiwoo, Yuma, Takeru, and Changsun.
