The production team of "Fake Man" once again stood at the center of the topic. This time, it was not a military training experience but a fighting survival 'Fight Sam's Club' that succeeded in capturing the public's Sight again. It has grown at a tremendous pace, exceeding the number of views of the previous work 'Fake Man 2'.
KakaoTV's new original 'Fight Sam's Club' is a fighting survival where 14 participants with different careers spend 110 million won in fight money during the 168-hour stay. Especially, it is known as a new work of the production team of the web entertainment program 'Fake Man' which collected millions of views and collected big topics.
And as if to disprove this expectation, the heat for 'Fight Sam's Club' was hot from the beginning. On the 4th, Jung Chan-sung's YouTube channel 'Korean Zombie' has exceeded 2.4 million views, followed by the second show on the 11th, which is now over 1.3 million views.
This is higher than the average number of "fake man 2" released last year, so it attracts the light. 'Fake Man 2' had an average of less than 1 million views at the time of its release, and the final meeting remained at 2.24 million views even after a year.
Compared to other Webentertainment programs such as "Accomplice" (average 1.7 million views), Jang Sung-kyu's "Workman" (recently four times averaged 1.74 million views), and Dindin and Sleepy's "Nego King" (recently four times averaged 920,000 views), the topicality of "Fight Sam's Club" is not unusual.
So why is 'Fight Sam's Club' so popular? The netizens said that they were fascinated by the factual production of 'Fight Sam's Club' without filter. There have been various entertainments on the battle such as SBS FiL 'God of the Right' and MBC 'Cowardless Guys', but they have not caught the viewers' Sight. The biggest reason was the level that did not match the program's propensity. Even if they were dealing with the fighting, the production team had to filter out violent scenes and profanity in order to keep the water level because it was broadcast, and this process continued and the fun was forced to be halved.
On the other hand, 'Fight Sam's Club' has a naked production as if it were an overseas program. Not only the realistic production that feels the sense of hitting, but also the slang is contained without the 'beep' treatment unless it is a profanity that crosses the line. Even cigarettes that were tabooed in the broadcasts are appearing without mosaics in 'Fight Sam's Club'.
Because there are no directing elements that can distract the immersion, viewers quickly fell into the 'Fight Sam's Club' and started to cheer on the fighters who were given their numbers as if they were idols. The more the meeting, the more conflict among the participants is doubling the fun of seeing.
As such, the production team of 'Fake Man' succeeded in sniping viewers' tastes with a new challenge once again after the previous work. From the third time, Kakao TV will be released for 58 hours alone, and the 'Fight Sam's Club' will be able to continue its tremendous topic.
