MBC’s Ambitious New Show Flops Despite Star-Studded Cast Featuring BLACKPINK’s Jennie, Dex, And More
While the initial ratings saw it flop, it seems like there has been no improvement as the latest episodes have been released.
In particular, an article that garnered attention online outlined the reasons the show failed, including its purpose of having celebrities complete missions and form bonds through gift-giving. It also explained that it is easier to see the lives of celebrities through social media, so watching them now through shows isn’t as new and refreshing. With a focus on celebrities, it said that netizens just aren’t connecting to it.
The comments from netizens were even harsher, hitting out at the poor casting, the boring title, and how everything about the show feels stale and uninteresting.
- “I didn’t even know this was happening, but looking at the lineup, there’s an unlikeable member, a member with unpleasant controversies, and they’re all boring. Their personalities aren’t charming either. The producer would have to be really good to make this work, but they’re not.”
- “I’m not watching.”
- “It’s like Gabriel was, they cast a bunch of top stars and then have them appear sporadically. Variety shows are fun because of the characters and their chemistry. Look at how fun How Do You Play? has been lately. And always trying to force in a lesson or message feels outdated.”
- “The lineup is just way too boring.”
- “Even the title sounds boring.”
- “There’s no one fun in the cast. No chemistry, the concept feels stale too.”
- “I didn’t even know this existed. Just hearing about it makes me seriously uninterested, sounds boring.”
