South Korean cable channel tvN said Wednesday that it has sold the format of reality-travel show “Grandpas Over Flowers” to American TV network NBC via U.S. distributor Small World IFT.

The NBC version of “Grandpas Over Flowers,” titled “Better Late than Never,” will be broadcast during the first half of next year, tvN said.

“Grandpas Over Flowers” starring elderly actors who go on a backpack tour around the world became a smash hit in South Korea when it was aired on the cable channel last year.

The NBC program will be produced by Craig Zadan and Neil Meron, the Oscar-winning producers of "Chicago“ (2002), tvN said.
