Beat Coin
Beat Coin was a South Korean television program that aired on KBS2 on Thursdays at 20:30. Helmed by Park In-seok, the producer of Sister's Slam Dunk and the third installment of 2 Days & 1 Night and the writer of Battle Trip, the show was inspired by older Korean variety shows and began with the premise of leaving fate to the flip of a coin. Despite garnering a cult following which called themselves "Coin Purse" or "Piggy Bank", the show was ultimately cancelled in early 2024 due to low ratings. On February 23, 2025, Screwballs, a successor starring the same cast and helmed by the same producer, began airing on Netflix.
