The momentum of tvN variety show You Quiz on the Block (hereinafter 'You Quiz') is fierce. After moving viewers with the candid life confession of legend Lee Sora, who returned after seven years, next week it will feature the first joint appearance of Dongsuh relatives Kim Kangwoo·Ki Sung-yueng and a preview of Hollywood megastar Matt Damon, maintaining an uncontested solo run.
According to Nielsen Korea (paid platforms basis) on the 16th, the 351st episode of You Quiz, which aired on the 15th, recorded an average of 4.2% and a high of 5.7% in metropolitan households, firmly holding first place in its time slot including cable and comprehensive programming channels. In particular, in the target demographic of men and women 20-49, it topped all channels in the same time slot, including terrestrial broadcasters, once again proving it is the leading variety show setting trends.
The episode was themed "it's not over until it's over," delivering deep emotion and a heavy resonance.
From the fierce fight of Drug Crime Investigation Division Detective Son Hee-min, who runs day and night to eradicate everyday drug crimes, to the lively talk by commentators Hwang Jae-gyun·Yoon Seok-min·Jung Geun-woo·Lee Taek-geun, who are responsible for Tving's baseball commentary with their bold fastball banter, added fun. Then, after 30 years as a part-time lecturer, Professor Jung Il-young fulfilled his dream at age 65, and his tearful perseverance left viewers moved.
The highlight was undoubtedly singer Lee Sora. Breaking a long seven-year seclusion and hiatus to appear before the public after a long time, Lee Sora announced the comeback of a legend in style by sharing deep untold stories and her thirst for music through a conversation with Yu Jae-seok.
The preview released at the end of the broadcast also drew attention.
