The Nonfiction

A documentary series that highlights ordinary people living their lives with passion despite the struggles they face. It occasionally features celebrities as well. By delving deeply into aspects of people’s lives that are not usually visible—such as their personal relationships, ways of life, and specific professions—the series reveals their hidden essence. Through long-term, in-depth coverage of memorable incidents and events, it presents these subjects to viewers in their raw, unvarnished form. Many people have become famous as a result of being featured on this program, and for episodes that generated particularly strong reactions, the show follows up on the participants’ “what happened next,” reconstructing their past and present circumstances for broadcast. The production company rotates for each episode and is not fixed, and the program does not have any regular cast members.
