Episode 1 Live on Viu: Taxi Driver 3 Stars Kick Off the New Season
After the massive success of Seasons 1–3, Whenever Possible is back with a fresh season that promises bigger games, more dramatic moments, and the same heartwarming mission: making ordinary people’s daily lives extraordinary. Yoo Jae Suk and Yoo Yeon Seok, one of the Korea’s most beloved game shows duo, are ready to deliver laughter, surprises, and unforgettable memories.
Episode 1 dropped on Viu on December 16, 2025, and it’s already setting the tone for an incredible season. Stream it now and see why Whenever Possible remains one of Asian’s most beloved reality shows.
Synopsis: Dreams, Games, and Generous Prizes
Whenever Possible has a simple but powerful premise: find everyday people with heartfelt wishes, challenge them to games, and if they win, their dreams come true—courtesy of Yoo Jae Suk and Yoo Yeon Seok.
Season 4 elevates this concept with upgraded games, tougher challenges, and refreshing new “Whenever Friends” (the recurring guests who appear throughout the season). Each episode balances comedy, suspense, and genuine emotion as the MCs guide guests through games designed to test their skills, luck, and teamwork.
The stakes? Real prizes that can change lives. The drama? Watching guests pour their hearts into these challenges, knowing there’s a sympathetic audience rooting for them. The payoff? Unforgettable moments that guests will treasure forever.
Episode 1 Breakdown: Taxi Driver 3 Stars Meet Basketball Dreams
Guest 1: A High School Basketball Player’s Graduation Wish
The premiere kicks off with a moving setup: a high school basketball player wants to create special memories with his teammates before graduation. In the emotionally intelligent way Whenever Possible operates, the show doesn’t just hand him a prize—it creates an experience.
What game will test his skills? We won’t spoil it, but expect something that blends athletic ability with strategy. Will he and his teammates succeed? The tension is real.
Guest 2: The Nagwon Arcade Music Shop Owners’ Guitar Pick Challenge
Next, we meet the owners of a music instrument shop in Seoul’s legendary Nagwon Arcade—a cultural landmark beloved by musicians nationwide. Their challenge? A deceptively simple yet technically difficult game: flick a guitar pick to land it in a designated area.
This setup is brilliant. It plays to the guests’ expertise (they know instruments) while introducing an element of chance that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats. The precision required mirrors the craftsmanship of running a music shop.
The Celebrity Factor: Lee Je Hoon & Pyo Ye Jin
But here’s the kicker—the episode features Lee Je Hoon and Pyo Ye Jin, the stars of the mega-hit series Taxi Driver 3 (currently dominating Viu charts).
Their presence adds a fun K drama celebrity layer to the K variety show. Will they interact with the guests? Will they play alongside the MCs? The chemistry between these A-list actors and the beloved hosts is part of the episode’s appeal.
Why Whenever Possible Season 4 Matters
A Healing Antidote to Reality
In a world saturated with competitive reality shows, Whenever Possible stands out for its genuine kindness. There are no villains here, no eliminations, just the simple joy of helping people achieve their dreams.

As a serious actor (known for dramas like Response 1988), Yoo Yeon Seok’s foray into variety shows has been refreshing. His chemistry with Yoo Jae Suk feels natural and comfortable, not forced.
