Girls’ Generation and the Dangerous Boys

Girls’ Generation and the Dangerous Boys
Girls' Generation and the Dangerous Boys (Hangul: 소녀시대와 위험한 소년들; Hanja: 少女時代和危險少年) is a 2011 South Korean variety television programme, starring nine-member girl group Girls' Generation. It was broadcast on jTBC from 18 December 2011 to 4 March 2012 on Sundays at 19:30.

Background
On 22 November 2011, JTBC announced that Girls’ Generation will be leading in the weekend variety programme, titled ‘Girls’ Generation and the Dangerous Boys’, where they will act as mentors for teenage boys. In this program, Girls’ Generation members will transform into mentors for juvenile teenage boys.

JTBC said, “As Girls’ Generation are promoting "The Boys" in their busy schedule, they took up the challenge of being mentors for the first time in their lives. This is expected to become a hot topic. This program is especially meaningful as Girls' Generation has prepared opportunities for teenage boys to start anew. While approaching them with sincere attitude, Girls’ Generation is going to present another side of them.”

It is produced by Yoon Hyun-jun, who went on to work on another JTBC programme, Shinhwa Broadcast.

In January during episode 7, Hwang Yong-hyun left the dormitory and show. However, he returned in February at episode 9 to support the others during their guerrilla concert. His mentors, Yoona and Hyoyeon, would go on to help the remaining four.

In March 2012, a short behind-the-scenes of the filming was been released and fans have been voicing their admiration for Girls’ Generation’s serious attitude towards this program even though it is a reality show.
