Korean TV Host Jang Sung-kyu Faces Criticism on 'One to Ten'

Korean TV personality Jang Sung-kyu has come under fire.

During the show, host Jang Sung-kyu expressed, "The more you know, the more you see. I hope everyone in the nation watches this broadcast," strongly recommending it as a must-watch.

On T-Cast E Channel's 'One to Ten,' Jang Sung-kyu, affectionately known as 'Cute-kyu,' and Lee Sang-yeob present viewers with 'Must-Know Life Tips for 2026!' Joining them is rapper Nucksal, known for his sharp wit on YouTube, who adds a comedic touch to the show. Upon his arrival, Nucksal humorously critiques Jang's old-fashioned jokes, saying, "Sung-kyu's humor has always been outdated."

First up, 'Newlywed Icon' Lee Sang-yeob shares exciting news for soon-to-be-married couples about the 'Studio, Dress, and Makeup (SDM) Fixed Price System.' Nucksal chimes in with, "It's all about what they charge!" highlighting the reality of unpredictable costs. In South Korea, initial SDM costs often balloon with additional fees, and canceling contracts can result in hefty penalties. In response, the government has mandated the disclosure of pricing information by wedding venues and planning agencies. The show will delve into the changes in wedding culture and the details of the SDM Fixed Price System.

Jang Sung-kyu also discusses the 'New Parenting Policies' for parents and children. With the burden of housing loans, young couples find it challenging to celebrate new life. Reflecting this, South Korea's total fertility rate remains at 0.78 in 2024, the lowest among OECD countries.

T-Cast E Channel's 'One to Ten' airs on the evening of the 2nd at 8 PM.
