In addition to Paul from Louisville, KY, and Karine from Brazil, the new spinoff will also star five other couples.
The five additional couples are Jenny, a 60-year-old from Palm Springs, CA, and Sumit, a 30-year-old from India; Laura, a 51-year-old from Eustis, FL, and Aladin, a 29-year-old from Qatar; Tiffany, a 27-year-old from Frederick, MD, and Ronald, a 29-year-old from South Africa; Corey, a 31-year-old from Mill A, WA, and Evelin, a 26-year-old from Ecuador; and Deavan, a 22-year-old from Salt Lake City, UT, and Jihoon, a 29-year-old from South Korea.
The first hour of the premiere will be available to watch early on TLC GO beginning Monday, May 27.
90 Day Fiance: The Other Way -- 90 Day Fiance's fourth spinoff -- was first announced by TLC in July 2018.
Instead of following Americans and their foreign partners dating in the United States and attempting to marry within 90 days like the original 90 Day Fiance series, 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way will follow American citizens moving across the globe and living in foreign countries for the sake of love and their future spouses.
90 Day Fiance: The Other Way's Americans will also have to wed within 90 days in order to stay in their new countries.
The six American cast members will be shown racing a ticking clock and experiencing major culture shocks and challenges after relocating internationally -- including winning over their soon-to-be foreign in-laws and trying to plan a wedding.
"Will uprooting their lives in the United States pay off or be the biggest mistake ever?" TLC teases.
According to TLC executive Howard Lee, 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way is going to "up the ante with all the drama, emotions and fish-out-of-water feelings."
"90 Day Fiance: The Other Way is an exciting moment for TLC; strengthening and expanding the franchise that has captured the fascination of viewers across America into its second night of premieres each week and in a whole new way!" Lee said in a statement.
90 Day Fiance's other spinoffs are 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days, 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?, and 90 Day Fiance: What Now?.

TLC also just announced last month it will premiere The Family Chantel focusing on 90 Day Fiance couple Chantel Everett and Pedro Jimeno and their families in July.
90 Day Fiance franchise producer Matt Sharp explained last summer the idea for the new The Other Way spinoff came from 90 Day Fiance's casting process.
"We noticed in the casting process there were Americans who said I'm going to forego my lifestyle, my family, my culture, my country to be with this person," Sharp said during a Television Critics Association press tour panel, Deadline Hollywood reported. "There have been little bits of this in other shows."
90 Day Fiance: The Other Way is being produced by Sharp Entertainment.
