The KBS television show 'Mueos-Ideun Mul-Eobosal' is under fire from the public following an incident in which the production team tried to contact the family of a victim involved in a sinkhole accident for a possible appearance on the show. The producers acknowledged the inappropriate action of reaching out to the family member through a direct message and issued an apology. They clarified that while the program primarily serves as a variety show for entertainment, it also aims to shed light on societal and disaster-related issues as part of its 'concern counseling' segment. The show's team recognized that the approach taken in this particular situation was not appropriate. The family member of the deceased victim expressed frustration and disapproval over the show's insensitivity towards their tragedy, prompting backlash online. In response, the production team vowed to enhance their procedures for guest selection and reiterated their sympathy and regret to the grieving family. The sinkhole accident, which resulted in the loss of Mr. Park's life, occurred on Dongnam-ro in Myeongil-dong on March 24.
