'From one to ten' vividly and entertainingly presented the 'must-know tips' for 2026, serving reliably as a practical guide for viewers.
On the Feb. 2 broadcast of tcast E Channel's 'From one to ten,' Jang Seongkyu·Lee Sangyeop and special guest rapper Nucksal together unleashed a cheerful yet sharp commentary on the theme 'Don't miss out, a collection of 2026 lifestyle tips that change next year.' As Jang Seongkyu predicted essential viewing, saying, "I hope the entire nation watches this broadcast," the episode captivated viewers by delivering both laughs and useful information.
First, 'newlywed icon' Lee Sangyeop promoted marriage encouragement news by saying, "From now on, wedding halls and wedding planning companies will be required to disclose price information," announcing the implementation of a 'fixed pricing for wedding services' policy. When the topic of 'dress tours' came up, Jang Seongkyu said, "The groom's reaction is the most important. If he yawns, it's over," prompting laughter. Lee Sangyeop then offered a down-to-earth married-man tip, saying, "At the moment the dress is revealed, you must leap up and clap. Reactions shouldn't all come at once," which drew empathy. Korea's world-first adoption of an 'AI basic law' also came up. The broadcast introduced cases such as "a French woman who fell in love with a fake Brad Pitt and was extorted of 1.4 billion won, and a Hong Kong bank employee who was deceived by an AI impersonating a CFO and transferred as much as 34.7 billion won," highlighting the severity of AI crime. Accordingly, the implementation details of the 'AI basic law' were disclosed, noting that commercially using AI-generated content requires a disclosure statement and violations may result in fines of up to 30 million won, raising awareness.
Next, Lee Sangyeop said, "There was some very bitter news last year as an actor," noting, "There was not a single domestic film that reached 10 million admissions in 2025." Indeed, after COVID-19, the Korean film industry, which produced 10-million-admission films every year such as The Outlaws, 12.12: The Day, and Exhuma, has seen audience numbers sharply decline in 2025 and is going through a deep dark period. In response, the government announced the introduction of a 'subscription-based movie pass' system to reduce the burden of moviegoing. Whether this system can revive soaring ticket prices and the stagnant theater industry is drawing attention. The 'Animal Protection Act' amendment, long awaited by 15 million pet owners, was also highlighted. From June this year, the obligation to wear internal or external registration chips containing guardian information will be extended to pet producers. In addition, to prevent animal abuse and strengthen management, CCTV installation will be mandatory in animal-related business sites such as breeding facilities. When footage of breeding facilities left in appalling conditions was shown, Lee Sangyeop lamented, "What crime did these voiceless creatures commit?" and Nucksal could not hide his anger, saying, "It's truly horrific. That such places still exist in the 21st century..."
In addition, viewers were informed that passport issuance fees will increase by 2,000 won from March, the first hike in 20 years, and that Japan, suffering from over-tourism, will triple its departure tax and raise foreign visa issuance fees fivefold, providing 'must-check information for overseas travel.' There was also wide-ranging coverage offering rich information, including the "new recycling policy" to protect the environment and the planet, the "Everyone's Card" to ease transportation costs for walkers, the "hearty meal" policy to provide meals for office workers, tougher penalties for drunk- and drug-impaired drivers to enhance safety on the roads, and new childcare policies for parents and children.
