Aespa's Synk Road (Korean: 에스파의 싱크로드; stylized as aespa's Synk Road) is a South Korean reality web series starring Aespa. Produced by SM C&C Studio and directed by Jin Sun-mi, the reality show was broadcast on Wavve on December 28, 2022, and was shown every Wednesday. It is a variety travel show where the members complete missions to acquire "ae-key" cards hidden along their travel route, featuring activities like teamwork and secret missions and showcasing their adventures over three days and two nights.
On November 25, 2022, it was reported that Aespa would have their first reality show along with the release of a concept poster that shows the members against the backdrop of a road and a key.[1] In addition, a poster of them enjoying car camping against the backdrop of the night sky full of stars has been released.[2] The reality web series was produced by SM C&C Studio and was directed by Jin Sun-mi.[3] SM C&C stated that the group will have their first solo reality show as a Wavve Original, titled Aespa's Synk Road, and added that one would be able to catch a glimpse of the group's "new" side as it was their first reality show.[4] It was scheduled to be released every Wednesday at 11:00 AM KST (UTC+09:00) starting December 14 through Wavve initially,[5] before moving its broadcast to December 28.[6] Additionally, the main teaser of the show was released on December 7 ahead of its first broadcast premiere on Wavve.[7] On 8:00 PM of January 3, 2024, a special live broadcast of the show was scheduled wherein they will talk about the story of their first reality show filming, question and answer portion, and playing a mini-game.[8]
The show was done in a real-life set, rather than on a stage decorated with metaverse, notably the worldview of Kwangya.[9] The filming took place at a resort located in Donghae and Pyeongchang in the province of Gangwon.[10] Aespa's Synk Road is a variety travel show where members must complete "Synk Road" by acquiring "ae-key" cards hidden throughout the travel road.[11] The activities to obtain the "ae-key" card will include working together to devise a plan to succeed in a mission and secretly carrying out a mission alone without the members knowing.[12] Aespa would spend three days and two nights on their travel story as it contained the "quirky" and "lively" first reality of the four members.[13] It will also show the members doing "thrilling" activities, healing time in nature, and mukbang of all sorts of delicacies.[14]
