Each family has an opportunity to build money in their bank during each round, with the final winner, determined by the studio audience, taking home the prize money.<\/p>\n<p><em>Family Singers<\/em> will launch internationally at MIPTV.<\/p>\n<p>Jin Woo Hwang, president and executive director of Something Special, said: \u201cWith families experiencing quarantine together during the pandemic, we wanted to shine a light on the importance of teamwork by bringing talented relatives to the stage to share their heartwarming stories and work together to win cash. Phil [Gurin] is the best industry veteran and there\u2019s no better partner for this project. We look forward to bringing <em>Family Singers<\/em> to MIPTV format buyers in Cannes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Phil Gurin, president and CEO of The Gurin Company, said: \u201cWe always love entertaining formats where regular people can imagine themselves up on stage competing for their moment of fame, winning cash prizes and having fun. The opportunity to collaborate with my old friend Jin and his talented team enabled us to create what we think is currently missing in the marketplace\u2014a big, splashy, self-contained singing game show where everyday families compete together. We are excited to launch at MIPTV before spreading out to the rest of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seoul-based Something Special has entered into a co-development partnership with The Gurin Company for the unscripted global competition format Family Singers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":8833,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[2467,2158,2468],"class_list":["post-8832","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-family-singers","tag-something-special","tag-the-gurin-company","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Something Special &amp; The Gurin Company Pact for Family Singers - TVFORMATS<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/something-special-the-gurin-company-pact-for-family-singers\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Something Special &amp; The Gurin Company Pact for Family Singers - TVFORMATS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Seoul-based Something Special has entered into a co-development partnership with The Gurin Company for the unscripted global competition format Family Singers.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/something-special-the-gurin-company-pact-for-family-singers\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVFORMATS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2022-03-29T14:47:16+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2017\/07\/jin-woo-hwang-phil-gurin-0322.png\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"420\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/png\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/something-special-the-gurin-company-pact-for-family-singers\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/something-special-the-gurin-company-pact-for-family-singers\/\",\"name\":\"Something Special &amp; The Gurin Company Pact for Family Singers - TVFORMATS\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2022-03-29T14:47:16+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2022-03-29T14:47:16+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/something-special-the-gurin-company-pact-for-family-singers\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/something-special-the-gurin-company-pact-for-family-singers\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/something-special-the-gurin-company-pact-for-family-singers\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Something Special &amp; The Gurin Company Pact for Family Singers\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/\",\"name\":\"TVFORMATS\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\",\"name\":\"Chelsea Regan\",\"description\":\"Chelsea Regan is the managing editor of World Screen.
