A Bright World (Chinese: 世界青年说; pinyin: shìjiè qīngnián shuō) was a Chinese talk show based on the popular South Korean talk show Non-Summit. It aired on Jiangsu Television on Thursday at 22:00 beginning April 16, 2015.[1][2] The show hosts a panel of foreigners living in China, holding discussions in Mandarin on various topics and issues. The atmosphere is meant to emulate a meeting of world leaders, but presented with humor.
The panel consisted of a "Secretary General" (Chinese: 秘书长; pinyin: Mìshūzhǎng), a "Vice Secretary General" (Chinese: 副秘书长; pinyin: Fù mìshūzhǎng), and 11 "representatives" from different countries known as TK11. In Season 1, there were 11 TK11 representatives. In Season 2, there were 16 TK11 representatives. Every episode 11 of them sit in the middle, and the other 5 sit in the audience area.
