Knowing Bros (Korean: 아는 형님) is a South Korean television entertainment program distributed by JTBC on every Saturday at 11:00 pm, starting from December 12, 2015. It was broadcast at 10:00 pm but as of January 23, 2016 it has been moved on the 11:00 pm timeslot.
The cast takes questions sent in from viewers and tries to answer them best to their abilities, through dialogue or experimentation. They have to answer through their own style using everything (body and brain) to find solution for their question.[1] The show changed its concept to the classroom skit on episode 17. Many viewers consider it the best change made to the show.
