Producer Choi Seung-hee of The Seasons has been watching 0-1% for the second year? I'm remembering it painfully

Producer Choi Seung-hee said at the KBS2 late-night music program 'The Seasons - Park Bo-gum's Cantabile' production presentation held at KBS Art Hall in Yeouido, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul on the 11th that `If the indicator of ratings was the most important program, it would have been broadcasting every Friday at a different time zone.'
Starting with 'Park Jae-beom's Drive' in February 2023, 'The Seasons' has featured 'Choi Jung-hoon's Night Park', 'Akmu's OnalObam', 'Lee Hyo-ri's Red Carpet', 'Zico's Artist', and 'Lee Young-ji's Rainbow'. It raised expectations for the program by recruiting stars as MCs, but fell into a swamp of sluggishness, recording 0-1% ratings for two consecutive years.
Producer Choi responded, `I've seen a lot of articles about ratings, and I'm thinking heavily about this. However, our program is broadcasting at 10 p.m. every Friday, and tens of billions of dollars of dramas are broadcast on other channels at that time. If the indicator of ratings was the most important program, we wouldn't be introducing rookies every Friday evening like this."
In the meantime, "We are determined to keep the last remaining music program with the production cost 30 years ago. I feel great value in steadily providing a place for rookies to stand. Of course, we are well aware that we cannot tell you everything just by value. "I'm deeply reflecting on what you pointed out, so I hope you watch it with affection," he said.
Meanwhile, 'The Seasons - Park Bo-gum's Cantabile' will premiere on KBS2 at 10 p.m. on the 14th.
