Good Data Corporation's FUNdex reported that Heo Nam-jun, a cast member of 'You Quiz on the Block,' ranked first in the TV-OTT integrated non-drama cast celebrity buzz category for the fourth week of June.

Heo Nam-jun, who starred in the highly buzzed drama 'Beautiful World,' which topped the TV-OTT drama celebrity buzz category four times during its broadcast, made his first appearance on a variety show this time, riding the drama's high buzz. Previously, in the third week of June, Lim Ji-yeon, who also appeared in the same work, ranked fourth, and now with Heo Nam-jun reaching the top, the drama's high buzz was once again confirmed. This marks the third time since 2026 that a cast member of 'You Quiz on the Block' has ranked first in the non-drama cast celebrity buzz category.

Thanks to Heo Nam-jun's performance, tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block' also secured the top spot in the TV-OTT integrated non-drama celebrity buzz category. This is the second time the program has ranked first in the 2026 TV-OTT integrated non-drama celebrity buzz category, and the fourth time it has topped the TV non-drama celebrity buzz rankings.

Lim Young-woong of 'Mountain Bachelor Young-woong' took second place in the non-drama cast celebrity buzz category. His SBS drama 'Mountain Bachelor Young-woong' ranked 10th in the TV-OTT non-drama category during its first week of broadcast.

Park Woo-yeol of 'Heart Signal Season 5' ranked third in the non-drama cast celebrity buzz category, while Kim Min-kyung, who appeared on 'Radio Star,' took fourth place. Known as the 'Min-kyung Editor' on YouTube's Minumsa TV, Kim Min-kyung made it into the top five of the non-drama cast celebrity buzz rankings in a single leap through her second variety show appearance.

Kim Shin-young of 'I Live Alone' and Kang Yu-kyung of 'Heart Signal Season 5' ranked fifth and sixth, respectively, while Lee Hyo-ri of JTBC's new variety show 'Love War' ranked seventh. From eighth to tenth place are Jeong Ji-sun of 'Undercover Chef,' Code Kunst of 'I Live Alone,' and Jung Ga-ryeong of 'Heart Signal Season 5,' in that order.

Good Data Corporation's rankings for the fourth week of June covered TV non-dramas and OTT original non-dramas that were broadcast, released, or scheduled between June 22, 2026, and June 28, 2026, including the cast members and guests who appeared in each program.

The celebrity buzz survey, which selects the most competitive programs of the week, is based on an analysis of program-related information and netizen reactions found in news articles, VON (Voice of Netizen), videos (video clips and shorts), and SNS. Among the data collected for the survey, materials unrelated to the program and abusive data intended to artificially inflate buzz scores are filtered out. Through this process, program competitiveness is analyzed more accurately, with an accuracy rate of over 97%.
