Comedian Nam Hee-seok expressed his convictions as an MC for ‘National Singing Contest’.
On the 7th, Nam Hee-seok said on the YouTube channel of the Korea Broadcasting Writers Association, “It is greed that I have to lead the national singing contest. “I hope things go well with me in the broadcasting system,” he said. “Rather than saying, ‘Nam Hee-seok came and the viewer ratings went up,’ I want to hear praise that ‘it has stabilized.’”
“I thought I was holding the heaviest microphone in the world. But you have to handle it. I had the thought of ‘I want to show off my national singing skills’, but I thought it would be disrespectful to bring it up. I had this thought in my head, ‘When I get older, I’ll have to hold the microphone on that stage someday.’ It would be a lie if I said I didn’t feel pressured, but I didn’t want the MC to look anxious, so I started recording from episode 3 with ease. “Rather than going to the National Singing Contest with great synergy and explosive power, I wish I could go in a stable and compatible way.”
Regarding the reaction that ‘the first recorded opening comment was surprisingly ordinary’, he pointed out, “It became such a big issue that I thought, ‘I have to follow the basics.’” “I had many ideas, such as whether to go in while singing or to go in excitedly, but aren’t there many people who remember teacher Song Hae? “She calmly recorded it with the idea of imitating the basics of the ‘Dear overseas compatriots’ message that the teacher often said,” she explained.
“The best change was when my wife started making breakfast for me,” he said. “Jang Dong-min also contacted me. “He (joking) said, ‘When my brother dies, please give me an interview so he can do it himself,’” he said, laughing. “I have a personality that endures well. “There was a time when I thought, ‘I did well because I did well,’” he said. “Now that I have this much broadcasting experience, I think I had a writer, a producer, and a camera director. At the National Singing Contest, there are people who drive broadcasting equipment trucks and perform on stage. “I thought that it had evolved like a living organism in the system and became a longevity program,” he said.
Nam Hee-seok took the microphone from the Jindo-gun, Jeollanam-do episode that aired on March 31st. His predecessor, comedian Kim Shin-young, was selected following the longest-serving MC, Song Hae (Song Bok-hee, 1927-2022), but stepped down after one year and five months. Controversy arose when he claimed that he had been unilaterally notified of his departure. Nam Hee-seok’s first broadcast recorded a nationwide viewership rating of 5.5%. Last month, it was 6.0% on the 7th, 5.9% on the 14th, 6.8% on the 21st, and 5.1% on the 28th, and the average viewer rating for the 6 episodes was about 5.9%. This figure is 1.0 percentage points higher than the average viewer rating of 4.9% during Kim Shin-young’s tenure as MC.
When Kim Shin-young was replaced, petitions against it poured in, and at the time, KBS said, “Contrary to the increase in topicality, viewership ratings showed a downward trend, and concerns were also raised about a decline in competitiveness through viewer complaints.” “Among the opinions related to Kim Shin-young received from the KBS viewer consultation room from October 16, 2022 to March 3, 2024, there were 616 complaints and 38 compliments,” he said. “We are replacing the MC as a solution to the crisis faced by the 44-year-old traditional program.” “I had no choice but to make a decision,” he emphasized. It’s been a month since Nam Hee-seok hosted the National Singing Contest, but there is some disappointment as there is no significant effect on viewership ratings.
