According to SPOTV News on September 23, Kim Tae-ri will star in the new program After-School Theater Club (working title). In this upcoming tvN show, Kim Tae-ri becomes the teacher for a rural elementary school’s theater club, guiding young students through acting lessons. The heartfelt journey between the passionate “acting teacher” and her lovable students is expected to bring pure laughter and touching moments to viewers.
This marks Kim Tae-ri’s first-ever variety show since her debut 10 years ago. Known as a “variety show natural monument” for rarely appearing in entertainment programs, Kim Tae-ri has reportedly made the decision to join after much deliberation. Through this program, audiences will see both “actress Kim Tae-ri” and “human Kim Tae-ri” in a new light, as she showcases a more candid and charming side of herself.
Kim Tae-ri is recognized as one of Korea’s top actresses, with acclaimed performances across romance, historical, fantasy, and thriller genres. Her work in Kim Eun-hee’s hit drama Revenant earned her the prestigious Daesang (Grand Prize) at the SBS Drama Awards, solidifying her position as an A-list star.
The process of Kim Tae-ri working closely with innocent, inexperienced students to create a unique play is expected to feel like watching a well-made film, filled with sincerity, warmth, and inspiration.
Previously, Kim Tae-ri revealed her down-to-earth personality through her vlog So This Is The Place?, sparking a wave of fan requests for her to appear in a variety show. Now, with After-School Theater Club, fans are eagerly anticipating what kind of transformation she will present in her long-awaited variety debut.
The program, led by the ever-passionate Kim Tae-ri, is scheduled to air on tvN in 2026.
