'I'm Sunny Thank You' features a special friendship trip with Kang So-ra and her friends, set to be released in July.
MBC's new program 'I'm Sunny Thank You' (directed by Kim Jun-hyun) is a variety show that captures the friendship story of the actors from the movie 'Sunny' as they rediscover the value of each other through travel. Just like the story of the movie 'Sunny', which begins with a reunion with friends they wanted to see, 'I'm Sunny Thank You' will also focus on 'reunion' and present the cheerful and honest stories of the 'Sunny' seven princesses meeting in unique places.
'I'm Sunny Thank You' generated explosive interest as soon as the launch news was announced. The movie 'Sunny', released in 2011, attracted 7.45 million viewers and received great love. In particular, the seven actresses who played the seven princesses in the film rose to stardom thanks to 'Sunny', and they have maintained their cheerful (sunny) friendship for 15 years since then. Therefore, the mere fact that the 'Sunny' seven princesses can be seen together in one variety show has naturally sparked public interest and expectations for 'I'm Sunny Thank You'.
Meanwhile, on June 19, the first broadcast schedule for 'I'm Sunny Thank You' was finally revealed. 'I'm Sunny Thank You' will air every Saturday night at 8:40 PM starting July 5. The show aims to capture both laughter and empathy, targeting the competitive Saturday night content market.
The poster for 'I'm Sunny Thank You', released alongside the announcement, features Kang So-ra, Kim Bo-mi, Kim Min-young, and Lee Eun-ji standing side by side against an exotic backdrop, wearing traditional clothing and accessories from the region. Their smiling faces, along with the caption "Did you know? We were always together..." clearly hint at the significance of their friendship trip and heighten anticipation for the show.

Also drawing attention is Lee Eun-ji. Kang So-ra, Kim Bo-mi, and Kim Min-young are the actresses who appeared as the seven princesses in 'Sunny'. In contrast, Lee Eun-ji did not appear in 'Sunny'. This raises curiosity about why Lee Eun-ji is joining the trip, how the other 'Sunny' actors will appear in 'I'm Sunny Thank You', and where the exotic travel destination featured in the poster is.
In this regard, the production team of 'I'm Sunny Thank You' stated, "Like the caption in the poster, 'I'm Sunny Thank You' depicts the reunion of true friends, the overwhelming emotions that come with it, and stories of friendship. The seven princess actresses will appear in various ways to fill 'I'm Sunny Thank You'. Additionally, we ask for much interest and anticipation for Lee Eun-ji's activities, which will further illuminate the friendships of the 'Sunny' actors."
