The man credited with turning Sunrise into Australia’s leading breakfast program and launching The Morning Show for the network has revealed that his next venture will be outside of television.

Adam Boland told the Sun-Herald that his next project will be to launch a traditional Korean bathhouse in Sydney.

He said that the plan developed while travelling in Asia with his partner. Boland still consults with Seven two days a week.

In November, Boland hinted to Mumbrella that he would like to develop new programming ideas after taking a break.
