She described the experience as a "new world" that allows her to see things she never would have otherwise. Her candid and quirky charm is highly anticipated in the upcoming episodes.

The familiar banter between Sung Dong-il and Kim Hee-won is back, and the preview of gourmet exploration in Hokkaido, interactions with locals, and forming new connections amidst nature promises an engaging journey. 'House on Wheels: Hokkaido' is set to premiere on October 12th at 7:40 PM on tvN.

Jang Na-ra debuted as a singer in 2001 and has since actively pursued acting and variety shows. She has maintained her popularity for a long time with her youthful appearance and charming persona. Her participation as a fixed cast member in 'House on Wheels' is particularly significant as it marks her first time in such a role.
