Good Day Ends On A Dry Note Amidst Kim Soo Hyun Controversy; Netizens Blame Queen Of Tears Actor
MBC's latest variety show 'Good Day', hosted by BIGBANG's G-Dragon, recently wrapped up its journey. The show got affected by 'Queen Of Tears' actor Kim Soo Hyun's ongoing scandal so much so that they had to remove Soo-hyun's scenes from the show after facing major backlash from the audience across South Korea.
Good Day aired its last episode on April 13, 2025 and ended its journey on a dry note. With the highest-rated moment, at 3.5%, in the finale episode, G-DRAGON's show had a national average rating of 2.7% only, which marked an all-time low for the show, as reported by Allkpop.
Netizens have expressed their disappointment and blamed Kim Soo-hyun for the low viewership rating of the show. "The biggest reason behind the show's rating slump was the controversy involving Kim Soo Hyun.
Allegations surfaced claiming that he had dated the late Kim Sae Ron starting in November 2015, when she was only 15 years old, until July 2021. Despite the uproar, Kim Soo Hyun proceeded with filming on March 13 and appeared in the March 16 broadcast, sparking further backlash. The production team later announced, 'We will cut as much of Kim Soo Hyun's appearance as possible and will not air the individual recording session from the 13th,' deciding to skip a week of airing and heavily edit his scenes.
However, these measures weren't enough to bring back viewers, (sic)" Wikitree reported as per Koreaboo.
