At the end of April it was announced that there will be a season 2 of Road To Kingdom along with a predicted lineup.
It was announced this morning that Taemin is expected to MC this new season. He will also act as a judge and mentor to the competitors.

This is his first time MC-ing a show alone, and his first time mentoring in awhile. The first and only other time he ever mentored on a show was for The Unit a few years ago.
(I am having trouble finding the source again, but I did read that BPM did confirm Taemin received the offer and is considering it positively).
It was also announced awhile ago that Road To Kingdom will be receiving a makeover. Instead of it being a show where the winner gets to participate in the Kingdom competition it will get a huge makeover and rebranding. They would like it to now be more of a show shedding light on rising boy groups who have not reached their full potential/popularity. New benefits will also be offered to the winning team.
I'm not sure if it will get a name change? But they would like to treat is more like it's own separate competition show.
It was also announced this past week that Oneus, who participated in Road To Kingdom season 1 and lost, is fully expected to participate one again in Road To Kingdom season 2.
Many fans were surprised to hear that Oneus will be competing again since they are already a 5-6 years into their career, and a lot of the other expected groups to participate are (fairly) newly debuted groups.

Road To Kindgom season 2 is expected to start filming in September.

this should be entertaining
I think this sort of show will be a good fit for him. The Unit seemed really rough on him since everything felt kind of life or death (especially having Timoteo as a contestant). RTK isn't so high stakes and he's a performance god so he'd be able to give some really good feedback I feel.
Taemin an Onew have been flourishing outside of SM. Especially Onew.
Congrats Taemin!
