==History==
{{More citations needed section|date=March 2021}}
The original members of Juan Direction first formed the group in 2012 under the name "Island Media Asia" (IMA). They originally posted tutorial and documentary-style travel videos on [Twitch](/source/Twitch_(service)).[{{cite web |url=http://www.mb.com.ph/living-and-loving-with-juan-direction/ |title=Living and loving with Juan Direction |website=www.mb.com.ph |access-date=22 May 2022 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20140221100955/http://www.mb.com.ph/living-and-loving-with-juan-direction/ |archive-date=21 February 2014 }}] Their style was described as "vlogumentary", a mix of [vlogging](/source/vlogging) and [documentary](/source/documentary).
Although they continued to make videos online after beginning the reality show, their main popularity was a result of the group's previous work on [YouTube](/source/YouTube). While IMA had seven members, Juan Direction featured only five of the original members. The other two (Matthew Edwards and Keys Cosido) had a recurring role in the show.
==Production==
Juan Direction was one of the shows launched in [TV5](/source/TV5_(Philippine_TV_network))'s "Everyday All the Way" trade launch in [Taguig](/source/Taguig) in October 2013, and in TV5 Happy Ka Dito in June 2014.[{{cite web| url = http://manilastandardtoday.com/2013/10/09/tv5s-everyday-all-the-way/| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20131012045250/http://manilastandardtoday.com/2013/10/09/tv5s-everyday-all-the-way/| archive-date = 2013-10-12| title = TV5's 'Everyday All the Way' - Manila Standard Today}}]
From June 23, 2014 – July 4, 2014, Juan Direction was shifted to weekday [primetime](/source/Prime_time) as they aired a special two-week season entitled "''Juan Experiment ng Juan Direction"''. In this show, the group participated in various tasks that would challenge their abilities to establish friendships and build relationships, with the end-goal of trying to prove that the differences between cultures no longer matter.[{{cite web | url = http://www.interaksyon.com/entertainment/tv5-airs-2-week-primetime-special-juan-experiment-ng-juan-direction/ | title = TV5 airs 2-week primetime special 'Juan Experiment ng Juan Direction' | publisher = Interaksyon | work = Entertainment | access-date = 2014-09-19 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20140825140504/http://www.interaksyon.com/entertainment/tv5-airs-2-week-primetime-special-juan-experiment-ng-juan-direction/ | archive-date = 2014-08-25 }}]
On September 22, 2014, Juan Direction returned on weekday [primetime](/source/Prime_time) with a new season titled ''Juan Islanders''.
