Grandpas Over Flowers (Hangul: 꽃보다 할배; RR: Ggotboda Halbae) is a South Korean travel-reality show that airs on tvN. It stars four veteran actors in their seventies — Lee Soon-jae, Shin Goo, Park Geun-hyung and Baek Il-seob — as they go on a backpacking tour to overseas travel destinations alongside Lee Seo-jin, an actor in his forties.
Grandpas Over Flowers became a cultural phenomenon, receiving high ratings for a Korean cable program and spawning several spin-offs and remakes.
The show's production director (or "PD") Na Young-seok also produced and directed the popular KBS variety show 2 Days & 1 Night. PD Na left 2 Days & 1 Night after its first season, and this was his first variety show since. He later went on to produce the spin-offs Sisters Over Flowers and Youth Over Flowers.
The first season aired from July 5 to August 16, 2013 for seven episodes. It was filmed in Paris, Strasbourg, Bern, and Lucerne.
The second season aired from August 23 to September 20, 2013 for five episodes. It was filmed in Taiwan.
