The program will show the various episodes that can happen in a 'sharehouse' which is gaining popularity among young people nowadays.

While the strength of "Daddy! Where Are We Going?" and "Superman Returns" is in the warmth of the family, the strong point of "Roommate" is on the the interaction of the celebrities and the troubles they go through as they grow and make a new community inside the house.
