Couple for a Million
Watch for fans of "The Bachelor" and "Island of Love" — here the same intensity of passions, but with Ukrainian flavor and unexpected "blogger-scientist" pairs.
The New Channel launched on September 5, 2022, a romantic reality show where two opposites meet for love and a million hryvnias. Participants are divided into two categories: active, liberated girls from the world of Instagram, fashion, and events — and reserved, introverted guys who dedicate their time to work, scientific videos on YouTube, and books. In the very first episode, they unite into 12 couples and undergo challenges that test compatibility, trust, and teamwork. The final prize is one million hryvnias for the winning couple, who can either split the money between themselves or stay together for the sake of their relationship, not the money.
12 couples formed in the first episode from 12 girls and 12 guys.
One million hryvnias, which the winning couple can split or keep entirely for themselves while staying in a relationship.
Both aspects — the show tests whether people can build relationships for feelings, not for the prize.
Yes, the format is successful, the second season was released in 2023, and the third is expected.
The show does not have a traditional host — the action is commented on by a voiceover, and participants receive tasks through video messages.
