Disney+ is launching a spin-off of 'Destiny War 49' titled 'Shinbbal Stay'.

On the 30th, Disney+ announced plans to produce the spin-off 'Shinbbal Stay', an extension of its flagship variety IP 'Destiny War 49'.

The production team behind 'Destiny War 49', which popularized K-shamanism, has joined hands with Disney+ to confirm production of the spin-off 'Shinbbal Stay' for global fans. 'Shinbbal Stay' is a K-shamanism healing tour where shamans with exceptional fortune-telling abilities check into the destinies of international guests. The top fortune-tellers from 'Destiny War 49' have gathered for this project.

The program features the TOP3 winners from 'Destiny War 49', including champion Yoon Dae-man, alongside Seol Hwa and Lee So-bin, promising explosive shamanic synergy. Also joining are MZ-generation shamans who made a striking impression: 19-year-old youngest shaman Ji Seon-do-ryeong and handsome flower-boy shaman Maehwa-do-ryeong. The fortune-tellers plan to offer not only K-shamanism tours exclusively for guests but also fully customized 'ultimate care' services ranging from meal planning to counseling consultations.

During the accommodation recruitment campaign conducted last May, applications poured in from around the world. Reports indicate that stories from applicants surged simultaneously with the launch of the recruitment drive, coming from 42 countries including the United States, Japan, France, Mexico, India, and Rwanda. Active participation was observed across all six continents—Asia, Europe, the Americas, Oceania, and Africa—with guests eagerly applying even before production began, drawing significant attention.

Upon its release, 'Destiny War 49' ranked first on the cumulative viewership list for 12 days, establishing itself as Disney+'s premier variety IP recognized as "the most-watched program in Korea."

The show also faced considerable controversy. Shamans from 'Destiny War 49' conducted missions to identify causes of death using clues about the deceased. This led to accusations of disrespect when the name of the late Firefighter Kim Cheol-hong, who died heroically at a fire scene in Hongje-dong, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul, in 2001, was used in mission content. Additionally, the program faced backlash for referring to the sacrifice of the late Officer Lee Jae-hyun, who was fatally stabbed by a weapon while apprehending a suspect in a major crime case in 2004, as "knife bread" (a derogatory term).

'Shinbbal Stay' is scheduled to be released globally via Disney+ in 2027.
