The episode that was broadcasted on the 24th had a devastating fall in ratings. According to TNS Media Korea, Star Golden Bell had an average rating of 11.0%. After the departure of Kim Jae Dong, the rating was just 7.6%, a drop of 3.4 percentage points from the normal ratings. It's speculated that the ratings fell mainly because of the change of MC's, as the program had kept a steady rating of 11%, and it should not fall that much due to guests or anything of that matter.

Kim Jae Dong filmed his last episode on the 12th in tears. Netizens were assuming that he was fired due to the death of former president Roh Moo Hyun and that he wasn't the same. KBS is also the Korean government channel, unlike MBC and SBS, so they are politically influenced. KBS has stated that he wasn't fired, but was just a change of MC's for the fall season. Kara's Nicole was also swapped with fellow member Gyuri.

On another note, ShiNee's Onew was the winner for this episode. it seemed like he was a studious student before his debut, since it was a word challenge, and he had breezed along through it.

OH. You just reminded me.

So, now we've lost a great MC and Nicole. Of course ratings will go down. If they didn't have young/hot pop idols coming on, I REALLY wonder how the ratings would have been.

That is screwed up.

And I think onew's glasses have some kind of Harry potter magical abilities that makes him smarter AND hotter, amazing.

I watched a bit of it and it seemed kind of boring. Anyone know what kind of segment Gyuri has? Is it the same as Nicoles?

well if having your ratings drop isn't a big slap in your own face not enough to realize firing him was a dick move...

It's weird they'd swap one KARA girl for another, especially when Nicole seems so popular.

Hm.

I don't really see SGB being on air for very much longer without Jaedong. With all the changes the show has gone through just within the last two years, it doesn't surprise me that viewers are mad that the only constant has left the show.

KJD is without a doubt one of my favorite MCs. (You guys should see the ep of CTP with him, Tiger JK, and Tasha.) Of course ratings would drop, but the government/station shouldn't have to see that in order to know that firing him for his political views is wrong.

I love Nicole's Level with me but I wonder how well Gyuri can do. And I'm starting to love Onew/Shinee :)

First of all, when you've got a good thing going, it really is suicide (our in this case, homicide) to go and change it even if it is regular practice. Why don't all these variety programs know this. And second, well, I was gonna say something how I wish this show to fail, but I realized that I watch it Xo

Can't say I'm not surprised. With all the sudden MC changes, the show isn't the same at all. It lost all it's ~flow.

Someone tell me why he was fired? (& why Nicole got replaced by Gyuri!?)
