LG HelloVision announced on the 16th that it will present the The Life Channel original entertainment show 'MACK ME Girl.' The show airs every Friday at 8 PM on The Life Channel and The Life 2 Channel. It is also available on online video streaming services (OTT) such as TVING.

MACK ME Girl is a solution entertainment program that receives stories from women struggling with severe complexes, low self-esteem, and daily inconveniences, and gathers medical, fashion, and beauty experts to provide customized solutions. The show is hosted by Lee Yoo-ri, Monica, and Eom Ji-yoon.

The second episode, titled 'Online Goddess,' will be released tomorrow (17th). A contestant with a model-like physique will appear, telling a story reminiscent of a real-life Mask Girl, sparking viewers' expectations and curiosity.

The first episode, '24 Hours Not Enough,' which aired last week, made a meaningful start by ranking second in the same time slot among women in their 20s nationwide according to Nielsen ratings. The story featured a prestigious university graduate who once weighed 130 kg and struggled with employment but succeeded in transforming by losing 60 kg, attracting great interest from viewers. The transformation went beyond appearance, providing psychological healing and restoring confidence, resonating with many women in their 20s and 30s.

Selected experts from various fields step forward to boost women's confidence. The core point of the show is the fun of seeing the contestant's transformation through beauty makers, including psychiatrists, dentists, plastic surgeons, body shaping specialists, fitness trainers, stylists, and hair and makeup artists. The sincere stories of the female cast also provide emotional impact to the viewers.

Bang Woo-tae, PD at LG HelloVision, said, "MACK ME Girl is not just about changing appearances but a comprehensive solution entertainment that makes contestants' dreams come true and changes their hearts. The program's unique feature is that three MCs, each at the top of their respective fields, manage contestants through one-on-one matching."

Meanwhile, since acquiring The Life Channel last year, LG HelloVision has been focusing on original content. It continues to strengthen its competitiveness in paid broadcasting by presenting various original contents unique to The Life Channel, such as 'Cheonhajeil in Health' and 'Salrebrity.'
