Crime Scene (Hangul: 크라임씬) is a South Korean variety program with Hong Jin-ho, Park Ji-yoon, NS Yoon-G, Jun Hyun-moo, Lim Bang-geul, and Kang Yong-suk as the cast for the first season. The first season consists of 10 episodes and aired on JTBC from May 10 to July 12, 2014.
Hong Jin-ho and Park Ji-yoon returned for the second season. Together with new members Jang Jin, Jang Dong-min and Hani, the five of them formed the cast for the second season. The second season began on April 1, 2015 and aired on Wednesdays at 23:00.
A third season has been confirmed to begin airing on April 28, 2017. It will feature returning cast members, Park Ji-yoon and Jang Jin, as well as newcomers, Kim Ji-hoon, Yang Se-hyung and Jung Eun-ji.
At the start of the game, the players (both recurring cast members and guests) are introduced to the "Crime Scene", which is a mockup of a murder scene replicated on a stage area, and are tasked with figuring out who the murderer is. Upon discovering the crime scene, the players are given the "case briefing", which includes a summary of events that occurred before the murder and a list of the possible suspects. Immediately afterwards, each player chooses a suspect to roleplay as for the remainder of the game. The players are then given more detailed information about the suspect they are respectively portraying, including the suspect's personality, whereabouts during the crime, relationship to the other suspects, and (in the case of the murderer) evidence that can be used against them. The rest of the investigation is split up into several segments:
After the Final Criminal Vote, the player who receives the most votes is "arrested" and locked in a makeshift prison, and the players who voted for that person are revealed. If the arrested player is the criminal, everyone who voted for that player receives a bag of gold coins. However, if the arrested player is not the criminal, the actual criminal wins all of the gold coins that the other players would have won.
