After School Club is an internet based Korean Variety show produced by Arirang TV that premiered in April 2013. The series is primarily hosted by Kpop idol Eric Nam and features various musical guests based in Korea. However, the series itself is directed at an international audience and the principal language is English with Korean subtitles and translations produced on air.[1]
Premise and Format
The show broadcasts live online and utilizes social media technologies such as Twitter and Google Hangout to directly interact with international fans. Two activities that take place every episode are the Roll Calls and Hangouts. During the Roll Call portion Twitter users tweet their name, location, the time and generally a short message to the weekly guest. Those that participate may be singled out during the beginning of the episode and given a shout out by the guest. "Hangouts" are typically done twice an episode where some fans are selected for a real-time Google Hangout on the show which usually involves something (such as a song or dance) prepared by the fan to show to the guest(s) and a request. Other activities include prepared performances for fans by the guests, such as impressions, dances, and short parodies.[2]
In March 2014 the show expanded to include a second episode every week known as the After School Club After Show which features other guest appearances and behind-the-scenes footage from the previous episodes.
