Going Seventeen (Korean고잉 세븐틴; RRGoing sebeuntin) is a South Korean variety web series starring boy band Seventeen. The series has been offered for free viewing on YouTube and V Live (then later, on Weverse) since its premiere in June 12, 2017.[1] It features the band members participating in a variety of activities depending on an episode's main concept, ranging from games or completing challenges to skits, role playing and get-togethers.

In 2019, it formally transitioned to the variety show format, and it aired weekly on Mondays since January 2020. Its fifth season began on April 2021 and aired on Wednesdays.

11635"Bad Clue" (Part 2)WoozinoneOctober 5, 2020 (2020-10-05)

Members of Seventeen (except Seungkwan) play a role-playing game wherein the twelve players assume the roles of characters in a narrative about twelve guests attending a secret party hosted by Park Tae-san, the Chairman of bSK Group. The players have to deduce the secrets of the Park family as they run into shocking hints within the venue and guests start disappearing one by one. As the game verges to a chilling end, Mingyu (as Chairman Park Tae-san's grandson Park Min-gyu) is the only one left within the venue until he himself disappears. In the epilogue, Seungkwan (as a TV anchor) reports about the "bSK Group massacre" and reveals that Park Min-gyu, who is afflicted with dissociative identity disorder and is believed to be both the incident's sole survivor and prime suspect, is missing.


In the post-credits scene, it is revealed that Park Min-gyu is indeed the culprit behind the party massacre, killing off each guest in his other personality, that of his father Park Joon-gi who, according to the game's narrative, committed suicide due to severe physical abuse from his father, Chairman Park Tae-san. During the final moments of the game, Min-gyu's original self is said to have succumbed to this other personality which then urged him to ultimately kill himself, thus player Mingyu's disappearance from the game area. To carry out the "killings" (i.e. elimination from the game), the production staff had all players "guess" the order of player eliminations by writing a list of the players' names on a sheet of paper before the game officially starts—the staff then followed Mingyu's list.

Seventeen are grouped into two teams and compete in various popular games from Korean variety shows of the past. The winning group will get a set of top-grade Hanu beef. During halftime, the Camel Team wins (450–430).


For the first half, the two teams play:
1. Igudongseong (One Voice) — The playing team is given a four-syllable keyword. Four players shall shout in unison a different syllable from the keyword, while the remaining players just have to move their lips, i.e. faking to shout a syllable. The opposing team have to guess the keyword by trying to discern the syllables being shouted and string them together into one word while making sure they will not be fooled by those who are only pretending to shout.
2. Alssongdalssong bokbulbok (Mysteriously Who Gets His Turn) — The members of the playing team are tasked to do apparently similar tasks except for one player who is doing a task different from the rest. The opposing team has to guess the odd man out who must pretend to be doing the same task as his co-members so as to not to get caught. To add difficulty to the playing team, they are not told in advance which among the items they will take is the odd one out.
3. Banggwa bang sai (Between Rooms) — A hybrid of message relay and charades, the game sees the members of the playing team forming a line and passing the keyword from the first player to the last player by miming, i.e. acting out the keyword without speaking or vocal sounds. The last player in the line makes a guess of the keyword to the MC (Seungkwan); if he fails, the preceding players try to guess the keyword one by one but with point deductions.

Seventeen are grouped into two teams and compete in various popular games from Korean variety shows of the past. The Tiger Team wins the entire competition (850–570).


For the second half, the two teams play:
1. Old/original version of goyosogui oechim (Shouting in Silence) — A message relay game with a twist, this requires the members of the playing team to form a line and pass the keyword from the first player to the last player while wearing headphones that play music loud enough to cancel out the players' voices. The last player in the line then verifies the keyword to the MC.
2. Bonus Game: Modern version of goyosogui oechim — Popularized by the tvN reality show New Journey to the West, this game is played by pairs and the keyword must be described or explained (instead of simply shouting out the keyword itself) by the first player to the second player who shall guess the keyword. One member from each of the two teams are chosen to play this game against the MC.

Seventeen engages in a role-playing game wherein the members wake up in pairs per round and find themselves in an abandoned research center filled with gory remnants of a series of failed human experimentations. In each round, the playing pair of players try to find their way out of the abandoned research center while deducing the truth behind it before they are caught by a masked man lurking in the dark corners of the building. After the elimination of a previous pair, the next pair are given clues from the previous pair's discoveries and the mistakes that led to their capture. The fourth and fifth pairs both fail to escape the building but are closer to their escape than the previous pairs. The last player Mingyu, who ventures out alone for the mission, correctly deduces that he and all of the previous players were clones, and he was able to escape from the building. But it is portrayed in the final seconds of the episode that he himself is eliminated from the game by the masked man who unmasks himself and is revealed to look exactly like Mingyu.


The narrative of the game is completed in the final seconds of the episode and in the post-credits. A group of eleven mad scientists immersed themselves in a research on human cloning, resorting to unethical human experimentations that mostly ended in failure and casualties. Later, they successfully made clones of themselves which inadvertently developed self-awareness. The scientists, by pairs (except for their leader Dr. Arthur Kim), tested each of their respective clones' capacity to retain memories and consciousness in an experiment that allowed them to gather clues towards their escape out of the building (the "Ego" escape game). As the experiment progressed, they captured and shot down their clones as they get closer and closer to their escape, including the one who successfully broke out of the building (Dr. Kim's clone).

For this episode, the 11 members of Seventeen played double roles: as Dr. Kim and his fellow scientists, and their clones (the roles of the players in the game).

Soundtrack[]

The soundtrack of Going Seventeen includes the show's opening and ending theme songs which are both composed by Seventeen band members Woozi, Jeonghan, Hoshi, DK and Seungkwan. Both are performed by the entire band and debuted in 17 June 2019 in the eighth episode of Going Seventeen 2019.

The production of the opening theme song (and its corresponding title sequence for the season) and the ending theme song were documented and featured in the sixth and seventh episodes of Going Seventeen 2019. In Episode 6: "Making the Going Seventeen Opening Song" (aired 20 May 2019), it was revealed that Woozi pre-produced four instrumentals and let his co-composers choose which among them will be fitting to be the opening and ending theme music. The composers then wrote the lyrics and recorded demo versions of the songs, with Woozi handling the production. Later, the entire band unanimously approved the songs and discussed the production of the songs' final versions and the filming of the show's title sequence. The behind-the-scenes of the recording of the songs and the filming of the title sequence are featured in Episode 7: "Making the Going Seventeen Opening Video" (aired 3 June 2019).

  17. ^ Korean title: 그림의 떡; RR: Geurimui tteok; lit. "rice cake in a picture"
