Two Yoo Project – Sugar Man is a 2015 South Korean television program starring various artists. The original 2-episode pilot aired at 22:50 (KST) on Wednesday (August 19 & 26, 2015) under the name Two Yoo Project Searching For Sugar Man . The regular broadcast of Season 1, hosted by Yoo Jae-suk, You Hee-yeol, Kim Eana and Sandara Park, kicked off beginning October 20, 2015, every Tuesday at 22:50 (KST), ended on July 12, 2016.[1]
Season 2 airs starting January 14, 2018, every Sunday at 22:40 (KST). Park Na-rae and Joy (Red Velvet) join as MCs alongside Yoo Jae-suk and You Hee-yeol.[2] [3] The last episode of season 2 was aired on May 27, 2018.[4] [5] [6]
Season 3 is confirmed to air from November 29, 2019, every Friday at 21:00 (KST). Kim Eana, who returns after being one of the MCs for Season 1, and Heize will join as MCs alongside Yoo Jae-suk and You Hee-yeol.[7] The last episode of season 3 was aired on March 6, 2020.
The idea for the program began with the documentary Searching For Sugar Man, which refers to the 2012 Swedish–British documentary about American musician Sixto Rodriguez, who faded into obscurity in the United States but somehow ended up as a megastar in South Africa.[8]
The program revolves around the battle of two teams led by Yoo Jae-suk and Yoo Hee-yeol. Each team will bring back a "Sugar Man": the singer who was a one-hit wonder, but has since disappeared from the public eye. The two teams recreate the old song, "Sugar Song", into new versions which will make them appealing to today's music market. To relive their glory, the songs will be recreated by each producer from each team with today's artist, "Show Man", who are slated to change every episode.[9]
