Hyung-don and Dae-joon's Hitmaker (Hangul: 형돈이와 대준이의 히트제조기; RR: Hyeongdoniwa Daejuni-ui Hiteujejogi) is a 2014 South Korean variety television series presented by South Korean producer duo Jeong Hyeong-don and Defconn. It first aired on MBC Every1 on Tuesday at 6:00 pm KST beginning July 29, 2014. It ran for two seasons in 2014 and 2015, documenting the formation and debut processes of their first boy group Big Byung (Korean: 빅병) and their first girl group Chamsonyeo (Korean: 참소녀). It was renewed for another season in 2016, with Season 1 and 2 host Defconn being replaced by BEAST's Yong Jun-hyung. The hosts, along with N.Flying's Cha Hun travelled to Dublin, Ireland to stage a performance.
In the first season, producer duo Jeong Hyeong-don and Defconn find members to participate in their first boy group, later named Big Byung (Korean: 빅병), using music they wrote and composed. They recruit VIXX members Hyuk and N, Got7 member Jackson and BToB member Sungjae. The group then releases two singles: "Stress Come On" and "Ojingeo Doenjang" (Hangul: 오징어 된장).
