Battle Trip () is a South Korean television entertainment program, distributed and syndicated by KBS.
Season 1 was aired starting 16 April 2016 and ended on 3 April 2020 with 177 episodes and 4 special episodes. The program starred Kim Sook, Kim Jun-hyun, Yoon Bo-mi of Apink, Lee Hwi-jae, Sung Si-kyung and San E as the main MCs. An invited celebrity will work together with the cast as a special MC to host the show.
Season 2 was aired starting 15 October 2022 and ended on 12 August 2023 with 39 episodes. The program starred Sung Si-kyung, Lee Yong-jin, Heo Kyung-hwan and Lee Mi-joo after 30 months of hiatus. From episode 1 to 9, an invited celebrity will work together with the cast as a special MC to host the show. Since episode 10, no special MCs were invited with the inclusion of Aiki to the main MC lineup.
From episode 7 onward, the winning team will still be decided by the popularity votes from the 100 audiences but giving the 100 audiences the choices to support either one team or both.
In episodes 42 – 45, 65 – 67, 91 – 93 and 100 – 103, as each team travelled 2 or more locations for the same battle theme, the overall winning team was decided after adding the total votes of both trips or locations (i.e. each team can get more than 100 votes).
In episodes 74 – 77, there is no voting from an audience of 100 due to the labour union strike and no audiences are invited to the show.
In episodes 116 – 119, there is no voting from an audience of 100. Instead, Lovelyz (Jiae, Jisoo, Ryu Su-jeong, Yein) and Pentagon (Hui, Hongseok, Shinwon, Yeo One) are the 8 special judges for the special theme. These 8 special judges can only pick one team each. In the event of a tie, Kim Sook will decide the winning team.
In episodes 127 – 130, Lee Hwi-jae and Kim Sook will be the special judges for The Solo Trip Special. There are four themes (essential courses, essential menus, bucket list and hidden courses) and the special judges will vote one country each for every theme. Trip designers who got chosen by the special judges will get extra five points on top of the popularity votes from the 100 audiences.
In episodes 137 – 138, there is no voting from an audience of 100. The 3 hosts made a bet to see whose trip people like the most via the social media and the one with the lowest number of votes will buy some snacks. Sung Si-kyung got the most votes and followed by Lee Hwi-jae and Kim Sook. Kim Sook bought cream buns for the 100 audiences in episode 141.
A year-closing episode, Battle Trip Awards, was shown on 29 December 2018 in episode 122. In this end of the year episode, the hosts will introduce recommended vacation spots for 2019 and show some unseen footages of some of the episodes in 2018. The Battle Trip Awards ceremony presents the Hottest Issue Clip Award (hottest issue on the internet) and The Best Trip Location Award (trip designer that received the most votes). Winners of the award are presented with a trophy.
