With this, the show will reorganize into a four-person program, consisting of Yoo Jae Suk, Haha, Joo Woo Jae, and Lee Yi Kyung.

Some netizens agreed that it was time for the members to leave the show.

• “I haven’t watched the show in so long.”
• “I don’t even know what the female cast members are doing…”
• “The show itself is awkward…not the members.”

However, other fans were disappointed to see the only female cast members leave the show.

• “No Jinjoo! The roles for the female members were a bit awkward.”
• “This has finally happened…can’t they just get rid of the show?”
• “Huh? Only the male cast is left again…”
• “All the female cast have left, leaving only the male cast.”
• “This is right…I want to see Jinjoo in more projects…”
