There is Torque that Yoo Jae-Suk cannot save. It is the story of President-elect Yoon Seak-ryul, TVN <You Quiz on the Block> broadcast on the last 20 days. When asked about the biggest concerns these days, it is not easy to get more out of the popular Torque program to those who have come to the popular Torque program to give abstract and basic answers such as "I have to give good results that people can live comfortably and I have to worry about how to do well." The story of the former secretary of the prosecution as a young man, or the story of the contents of the corner of the code I read because I did not want to study on the way to my friend's wedding Hamjin father, has already been put on the 9th judicial examination in KBS's "Problem Son of the Rooftop Room" in December last year. It was more like a fuming boss than the propaganda of the regime that many were worried about. But more precisely, it was a Torque that Yo Jae-Suk could not save, and it was also a Torque that could not be saved anymore because it was Yo Jae-Suk. He is an excellent host who relieves the tension of the other person and reacts quickly, but also gives maximum to the ideal appearance that the guest wants to show himself. Even if the president-elect decides to show just that level of appearance, there is not much that Yuo Jae-Suk can ask. He sits down first without proper greetings and says, "Is it a glory?" He only maintains a gentlemanly attitude while his pupils are shaking when the president-elect reveals arrogance that can not be hidden. That's why this broadcast is not just happening. In that the Anha Unmanned of The Dilemma by the nation's top host Yoo Jae-Suk and the nation's top power, Yoon Seak-ryul, crossed the line... in that it's not a coincidence.
The day after Yoon's recording of You Quiz on the Block, the Korea Daily reported the opposition of the viewer's bulletin board and the move to cancel the subscription to Teabing, and published an article pointing out the gap between YG Entertainment's program, "Life of Our Neighbors Meet On the Road" and "Maybe Your Story." Right. The president-elect's request for appearance is far from the lives of neighbors he meets on the road. In fact, for the past year or so, You Quiz on the Block has betrayed YG Entertainment intentions. In an emergency situation caused by Corona 19, the format was inevitably changed to a studio Torque show, but after that, some confusion was quieted and Kim Young-chul of KBS <Kim Young-chul's Neighborhood Wheel> still stuck to the studio while meeting many people in each area. The unexpected laughter that takes place through the accidental La rencontre (Bonjour Monsieur Courtet) on the road, or the true story of the local directors of the life oral history have long disappeared. The story of our neighbors who have been faithfully involved in the laundry work since the age of 14 has replaced the story that we could only hear on the road, such as the success story of celebrities, the human story of the hot topic, and the human and pleasant appearance of popular entertainers. If the prize money of 1 million won for the quiz was a miracle gift that would be memorable for someone's life in the past, many of the performers now make a pleasant donation. It is not simply a matter of past form, past fun. Now, the real problem is that the grandmothers of the Chanel beauty room in Yeonhui-dong alley, and elementary school students at Mokpo Seosan Elementary School are not you of You Quiz?, which represents the program.
You’re the one to listen to. One of the best things Yo Jae-Suk does. This led to an amazing explosion on the street. In the asymmetry of Korea, where all media reproduction and discourse are concentrated on Seoul white collar, the horizon of our world of broadcasting has widened gradually when 'he' Yo Jae-Suk meets people of various ages and various occupations outside Seoul and listens to their respective stories with their unique ability to progress and convey them to TV. But now, even if it is not Yo Jae-Suk in the position of You, the nouns who are already listening hold the microphone.
Of course, there are many good things. However, there was a suspicion that the production team apologized for the controversy when they were nodding their false careers by inviting the famous YouTuber Cargirls without any verification process, or that they had made a rant against Hyundai Motor designer Lee Sang-yeop, who was proud of his success story. Although the production team is primarily responsible for the complacency of the production team, the listening of Yo Jae-Suk becomes a double-edged sword. Although he could hear his professional mission from a recent YouTuber, Han Moon-chul, he does not talk about the great harm that he turned to the child, not the driver who did not take care of the responsibility of the school zone accident, saying that he was a popular citizen of the Namcho community. There is not much that Yo Jae-Suk can correct while a performer who claims the suspicious knowledge of handwriting that is not scientifically verified replaces social success with an individual's tendency problem. What remains is the explicit personal branding of performers with the resources to fully design the self-image they want to see.
Is this where Yoo Jae-Suk is responsible? That could be, but at least not on this show of Yoon Seak-ryul. If the previous celebrities and participants of the attention economy appeared in anticipation of the power of You Quiz on the Block and Yo Jae-Suk, Yoon Seak-ryul did not hide the tee that came out without any pre-training about the program as he did last year on YouTube channel Sampro TV. Again, he has no particular gain, and he is more likely to have lost a slight favor. However, it is also true that Yoo Jae-Suk is uncomfortable, but he is not a host who handles the necessary story, and that Yoon Seak-ryul does not have to feel the burden of meeting him.
Here comes a kind of The Dilemma. Yoo Jae-Suk acquired a wide range of inclusiveness with a right-spoken, gentlemanly attitude within a safe range, but for the same reason his halo effect has no filtering. La rencontre (Bonjour Monsieur Courtet) with guests like Yoon Seak-ryul is perhaps something to avoid, but the paradox of being those favourites is that they become. Instead of listening to the voice of You, which is not enough or excessively communicative resources and power, the inclusion of Yo Jae-Suk rather amplifies the slope rather than correcting the slope in the asymmetry of the public sphere that presupposes the position of You.
The program, which gave up on the road for a while, and the power who tried to borrow the power of entertainment instead of communicating directly with the people on the road, met in the worst way. Is this a coincidence? The undistorted public sphere and good politics are complementary. The opposite is the same. And the answer is on the road.
