Roommate (Korean: 룸메이트) is a South Korean reality show; formerly part of SBS's Good Sunday lineup.

The show features eleven celebrities living together in a share house located in the Seongbuk-dong area of Seoul, sharing common spaces such as the kitchen, living room, and washrooms, as well as household tasks. The house features sixty cameras and five bedrooms.
Six of the original eleven roommates left the show ending the first season of Roommate on September 14, 2014.
