The first episode of SBS entertainment show `Island Bachelor Hero' which first aired on the 26th recorded a national viewership of 5.3 percent based on Nielsen Korea. This is a 0.8 percentage point increase from the last episode of 'Whenever there is a gap', proving the effect of Lim Young-woong.
On this day's broadcast, Lim Young-woong visited Somodo Island in Wando, Jeollanam-do with the science creator Orbit and Chef Lim Tae-hoon. He explained the reason for the trip, saying, `I wondered what it would be like to talk seriously about difficult stories and good stories in a remote place.'
When the islanders saw Lim Young-woong, they ran without shoes and gave him a warm welcome, sharing hugs. Lim Young-woong said "I usually can't sleep well, but when I came here, I fell asleep as soon as I lay down. I think my physical strength has been restored thanks to this,' he said, expressing satisfaction with island life.
Meanwhile, in the trailer, Lim Young-woong's first sea fishing challenge was revealed, adding to expectations.
SBS 'Island Bachelor Hero' airs every Tuesday at 9 p.m.
