The race for 'Road to Kingdom: ACE OF ACE' is set to resume.

Mnet announced on the 27th that the first broadcast of 'Road to Kingdom: ACE OF ACE' is confirmed for 9:30 PM on the 19th of next month, signaling the start of the survival show.

'Road to Kingdom' is part of a K-pop boy group rising project. It is a survival program that highlights boy groups with both skills and potential.

The show has been rebranded from the 'Road to Kingdom' that aired in 2020. While the previous series was a prequel to gain entry into 'Kingdom,' this iteration is a standalone program.

Many rising groups will participate, including The New Six, The Crew One (ATBO & JUST B), E'LAST, ONEUS, YOUNITE, CRAVITY, and TEMPEST — a total of 7 teams.

PD Jo Woori is in charge of directing. She previously directed girl group stages in the 2019 broadcast of 'Queendom.' Taemin joins as the solo MC for the first time in his career.
