The returning Yu Jae-seok and Yoo Yeon-seok have perfectly slipped into viewers' gaps.
Whenever Possible, an SBS variety show that first aired in April 2024, maintained first place in the 2049 ratings in its time slot for every episode, and thanks to enthusiastic viewer response continued an unstoppable hit relay up to season 4, imprinting its presence as a successful seasonal variety show.
In particular, Whenever Possible, returning for season 5, within two weeks of the new season's broadcast swept ratings and OTT rankings and is demonstrating the strength of the top Tuesday variety show. The 2049 rating recorded 1.4%, signaling a full-fledged upward trend, and it secured first place among all programs on Tuesday.
In addition, household ratings also swept to first place across variety shows, dramas, and educational programs in the same time slot, proving the unshakable strength of the top Tuesday show.
Strong momentum continues in OTT rankings as well. From the first episode of season 5 it landed at No. 3 on Netflix's "Korea today top 10" series and has stayed in the top 10 chart for two consecutive weeks, maintaining solid popularity. In addition, it ranked fourth in the non-drama news category of the TV-OTT integrated FUNdex released by Good Data Corporation for the second week of August, continuing unusual buzz despite being a seasonal variety show.
In the broadcast on the 25th, Cha Taehyun, who has appeared in all seasons of Whenever Possible and produced the highest ratings, will appear alongside Jin Ki-joo, the heroine of the drama "Teach You a Lesson," which recently recorded a global mega hit, so another record-breaking performance is expected.
