Actor Byun Woo-seok is also making a name for himself as a 'hot guy' in variety shows.

On the 28th, in the May 3rd week TV-OTT integrated non-drama celebrity buzz ranking released by Good Data Corporation's FUNdex, Byun Woo-seok of 'Yoo Jae-suk Camp' took the top spot.

Byun Woo-seok, who recently garnered attention for his role in the MBC drama '21st Century Grand Duchess', is driving high buzz even in non-drama programs before their broadcast. In addition to Byun Woo-seok, Lee Kwang-soo ranked third and Ji Ye-eun ranked eighth, indicating that the cast of 'Yoo Jae-suk Camp' is generally generating buzz.

The second-ranked non-drama celebrity in terms of buzz was Lee Su-ji of 'SNL Korea Season 8'. Lee Su-ji demonstrated her power by appearing in the top five no fewer than seven times during the nine-week public airing period. Kim Kyu-won, who also appeared on the program, ranked fourth, Kim Won-hoon ranked sixth, and Jung Soo-jung ranked ninth.

The fifth spot was taken by Gong Seung-yeon, who appeared as a guest on 'You Quiz on the Block'. Thanks to Gong Seung-yeon's performance, a guest on the program has made it to the top five for the first time in 12 weeks since Park Ji-hoon's appearance.

The seventh and tenth spots in the non-drama celebrity buzz ranking were occupied by Gangnam of 'Please Take Care of My Refrigerator since 2014' and Song Ji-eun of 'Same Bed Different Dreams 2: You Are My Destiny', respectively.

Meanwhile, 'SNL Korea Season 8' on Coupang Play took the top spot in the TV-OTT non-drama buzz ranking. The program reached number one in the May 3rd week, achieving the feat of ranking first six times during its season run. From second to fifth place in non-drama buzz were ENA/SBS Plus's 'I Am SOLO', tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block', Netflix's 'Yoo Jae-suk Camp', and tvN's 'Kill It: Style Creator Daejeon Battle'.

The May 3rd week ranking released by Good Data Corporation included TV non-dramas and OTT original non-dramas that were broadcast, released, or scheduled between May 18, 2026, and May 24, 2026, along with the cast and guests appearing in each program.

The buzz survey, which selects the most competitive program 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%.
