The escapade of talented students from a prestigious university in Portugal begins in Korea.

On April 17 at 8:30 PM, the MBC Every1 entertainment program 'Welcome, First Time in Korea?' will feature Miguel, a twenty-year-old from Portugal, as the host, inviting his ultra-elite friends studying at prestigious universities in Europe.

Portugal, known as the descendants of the Age of Discovery. However, it is almost a barren land when it comes to information about Korea, as even 'Squid Game' and 'Gangnam Style' are not well known. Miguel, who settled in Korea despite his family's opposition, has now assembled a top elite team to explore the 'unknown land' of Korea.

The team consists of prodigies who have attended prestigious international schools since childhood and followed an elite path. The perfectionist leader Thomas, a student at the Technical University of Munich, which ranks higher than KAIST and Seoul National University in engineering, the free-spirited Francisco, who is smart without studying, and the communication king Juse, who can converse in five languages, are the main characters.

The journey of these friends, armed with their brilliant minds to the extent that MC Kim Jun-hyun laments, “I still don’t understand even after seeing the reference footage…” will be revealed on April 17 at 8:30 PM on MBC Every1's 'Welcome, First Time in Korea?'
