Problem Child in House

Problem Child in House sets up a simple, mischievous experiment: people who keep making bafflingly silly mistakes are invited to live together on a rooftop house until they can correctly answer ten quiz questions. The show mixes casual conversation, comedy, and staged challenges to reveal how these "problem children" think, letting their guesses and misunderstandings drive the humor. Hosts prod, tease, and explain as rounds progress, and contestants earn the right to leave only by reaching the goal. Episodes focus on everyday logic and common knowledge rather than specialist trivia, so laughs come from ordinary gaps and the chemistry among cast and guests.

The series premiered in 2018 and features comedians and entertainers Song Eun-yi, Jeong Hyeong-don, Min Kyung-hoon, Kim Sook, and Kim Jong-kook, folding talk-show banter into a game format rather than adapting existing material.

The show did not collect major industry awards or high-profile nominations, and there are no notable prize wins on record. Its appeal was more niche than awards-driven, leaning on personality and variety show pacing.

While not a global breakout, Problem Child in House landed a modest following among fans of Korean variety programming, especially viewers who enjoy unscripted humor and cast chemistry. A few segments circulated online, and the program contributed to the trend of quiz-infused talk shows that highlight everyday misunderstandings rather than expert knowledge.

Critical and audience responses were mixed, reflected in a small sample vote average near the midpoint, 5.5 out of 10. Reviewers and viewers who liked it praised the cast's rapport and the lighthearted tone, while others wanted tighter editing or sharper challenge design. Thematically the show leans into empathy and laughter, suggesting it's okay to be imperfect and that shared silliness can be entertaining and reassuring.
