My Teenage Girl

Fantasy Boys (Korean소년판타지 – 방과후 설렘 시즌2)[4] is an ongoing South Korean reality competition show created by MBC. It premiered on MBC TV on March 30, 2023, and airs every Thursday at 22:00 (KST).[5][6]

Out of one thousand applicants, 55 contestants from various backgrounds were selected for the show.[7]

The show serves as a sequel to My Teenage Girl, this time featuring all male contestants.

Concept and format

In June 2022, the production company, Phunky Studios, held meetings with 53 entertainment agencies to discuss the production of a male version of My Teenage Girl.[1][8] A month later, it was announced that over 1,000 trainees from all over the world, including Japan, China, the United States, Australia, and Thailand, had applied for the privately-held global auditions.[7][9] Any boys aged 14 and over, regardless of nationality, were eligible to audition.[10][11] Further contestants were originally scheduled to be recruited through public auditions from November 18 to December 16, 2022,[10] but the recruitment period was later extended to December 31.[12]

The show's goal is to create a global K-pop boy group composed of trainees from all around the world.[9] Aside from regular promotions, the new boy group will also participate in webtoon character, game, digital content, and NFT (Non-Fungible Token) projects.[13]

Promotion and broadcast

In November 2022, the program's title was confirmed as Fantasy Boys and multiple teaser videos were released between November 18 and December 2, 2022.[14][15][16] On February 20, 2023, profile photos and videos for the 55 contestants were released through the official website and social media accounts.[17] The music video for the theme song "FANTASY" was released on the 27th.[18] On March 6, Phunky Studio announced that in addition to the music video, a special performance video for "FANTASY" would be released. Filming for the video took place at a large-scale set at a gym in Gyeonggi Province from March 6–7.[19]

On March 1, an offline high-touch meeting entitled 'Hi! Fantasy' was held prior to the show's premiere at the COEX Convention & Exhibition Center.[20] Over 5,000 fans from around the globe applied for the event.[21]

On March 17, it was announced that the broadcast of the first episode of Fantasy Boys would be postponed from March 23 to March 30 because a global OTT platform had agreed to simultaneously broadcast the program worldwide.[6] Fantasy Boys is being simulcast through MBC TV and Naver NOW in South Korea,[22] Abema in Japan,[22] and iQIYI in 12 more countries, namely Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Brunei, Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, Myanmar, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos.[23]
