  • Note that the show airs on a cable channel (pay TV), which plays part in its slower uptake and relatively small audience share when compared to programs broadcast (FTA) on public networks such as KBS, SBS, MBC or EBS.
  • NR rating means "not reported". The rating is low.

Controversy

The broadcast got backlash from netizens due to the nature of the show.

Flood in Busan

On 24 July 2020, the show went under fire for covering the Busan flood as if a lighthearted issue. The corresponding clip was since put to private.

Beirut explosions

The Korea Communications Commission issued a warning against the show for an 5 August 2020 segment on the Beirut explosions. Viewers were aggravated with the way the show covered about the explosions, particularly with the sports broadcasting format and the "observation points". Two days later, Yang Won-bo told audience that "we always listen to [audience] feedback and heed them."[4][5] The corresponding clip was then put to private.

Bicycle stealing

On 21 October 2020, anchor Yang Won-bo reported on an article about the Netherlands having a lot of bicycle thieves, of which he responded with a sarcastic nuance, saying he can protest at the Dutch embassy. On that same segment, he made a joke to commentator Park Sung-tae about it, saying "you experienced [having a bike stolen from you]."

Notes

  1. No ratings for the Friday broadcast was released due to the 10 August 2020 broadcast being preempted to give way to breaking news coverage of typhoon Jangmi. It was temporarily replaced by an extended Jun Yong-woo's News ON.
  2. The country declared 17 August as a temporary national holiday, hence none of the afternoon newscasts aired their respective episodes.[3] The ratings for the 14 August broadcast wasn't released.
  3. All the afternoon newscasts except for Political Desk have been preempted to give way for breaking news coverage of typhoon Haishen. Ratings for the 4 September broadcast wasn't released.
  4. The show did not air episodes from 30 September–October 2 due to Chuseok.
  5. Yang Won-bo decided to stop showing ratings starting 15 October
  6. The broadcast was preempted on 22 October due to the special coverage of the parliamentary audit on the Supreme Public Prosecutors' Office.
  7. The show was preempted on 4–6 November to give way for special coverage of the 2020 US presidential elections.
