South Korean reality show ‘Rented in Finland’ brings Korean stars to Lapland

A new South Korean reality show brings K-Drama celebrities Lee Je-hoon, Lee Dong-hwi, Cha Eun-woo, and Kwak dong-yeon  to ”rural” Finnish Lapland to wonder around in nature, expose themselves to the elements and to the Finnish culture.

The show places the actors in a rural Finnish village, where they face the challenges of a self-sufficient lifestyle. They live without modern amenities such as electricity, running water, and Wi-Fi. The actors must complete daily tasks such as chopping firewood, cooking over open flames, foraging for food, and fetching water from lakes. They also use traditional navigation methods, relying on maps rather than GPS.
