Na made guest appearances on two scripted series on tvN. In episode 2, Reply 1994’s nostalgic campus drama, Na played a Yonsei University boarder as a joke about his real-life alma matter. Shin Won-ho, the Reply 1994 director and Lee Woo-jung, the screenwriter had previously worked alongside Na on 2 Days & 1 Night. Lee Soon-jae asked Na to play a police officer on episode 66 of Potato Star 2013QR3.
Yonsei University gave Na Young-seok a degree in Public Administration. He joined KBS in 2001 and started his career as an assistant Director in the variety department. Later, he was promoted to producer/director.
He also developed another KBS program in 2012, The Human Condition, in which six comedians (Kim Jun-hyun, Kim Joon-ho, Heo Kyung-hwan, Yang Sang-guk, Jung Tae-ho and Park Seong-ho) live together for seven days under certain restrictions, such as without gadgets, electricity, or water. Na produced the four-episode pilot.
The second spin-off, which aired in 2014 after the Spain season of Grandpas Over Flowers, was Youth Over Flowers. It featured singer-songwriters Yoon Sang, You Hee-yeol and Lee Juck in Peru, and Reply 1994 actors Yoo Yeon-seok, Son Ho-jun and Baro in Laos. Na only directed the Peru segments, while Reply 1994 director Shin Won-ho filmed in Laos. Both spin-offs likewise drew high ratings for cable. The series later spawned three more seasons; which were filmed in Iceland, Africa (featuring the cast of Reply 1988) and Australia (featuring boy band Winner).
In 2015, Na produced the spin-off Three Meals a Day: Fishing Village, set on the remote island of Manjae, which takes six hours to reach by ferry from the mainland. Besides the isolated location, the seaside setting meant more intensive physical labor for cast members Cha Seung-won, Yoo Hae-jin, and Son Ho-jun (Son replaced Jang Keun-suk when Jang was edited out of the show after a tax evasion controversy). Viewers were impressed with Cha’s cooking skills amidst minimal ingredients and implements (hence his nickname “Chajumma”), and the show received a record-high 14.2% rating. Season 1 had a winter setting, while the second season was filmed in the summer. For the show’s third season, Na added a new member, Nam Joo-hyuk. The location was switched from a fishing village to Gochang, where the members take on rice-farming for the first time. The show resumed its “fishing village” concept in the next season, which was filmed in Deukryang island. It stars an entirely new cast which includes a returning Lee Seo-jin alongside Yoon Kyun-sang and Eric Mun from Shinhwa. Viewers were impressed by Eric Mun, who showed unexpected cooking skills and fishing expertise.
