SBS 'Roommate' to start Season 2 with a re-branding as 'It's Okay, Roommate' + cast changes

SBS's troubled variety program 'Roommate' will be going through major surgery before it debuts again as Season 2 under the title, 'It's Okay, Roommate'.

The new season will also feature a new roster of cast members, who will join the remaining Season 1 cast.

"The direction we are taking with the Season 2 cast members fits in with the new concept of the show," Park Sang Hyuk, the producer of 'Roommate', explained. "If Season 1 was about strangers rooming together, Season 2 will focus on their individual lives. We plan to show how people with complexes or problems overcome them through their experience on 'Roommate'."
