Broadcaster Park Mi-seon put Park Myung-soo on the spot by asking about rumors that his YouTube channel 'Hal Myeong-su' was being discontinued.

On the 8th episode of KBS Cool FM's 'Park Myung-soo's Radio Show,' Park Mi-seon appeared as a guest for the segment 'Legendary Masters.'

Park Myung-soo asked about her YouTube channel, saying, "You have quite a few subscribers," and inquired about her activities.

In response, Park Mi-seon said, "'Mi-seon Impossible' has around 700,000 subscribers, but it's not as good as 'Hal Myeong-su.'" Park Mi-seon presents 'Mi-seon Impossible,' while Park Myung-soo presents 'Hal Myeong-su' as YouTube content.

When Park Myung-soo stated his channel subscriber count was "1.72 million," Park Mi-seon, looking surprised, directly asked about the rumors of production halt by saying, "But I heard you're not doing that anymore?" drawing attention.

In response, flustered, Park Myung-soo said, "I'd prefer if you didn't bring that up. It's a live broadcast, so anything could happen," and laughed off the situation by asking, "Why did you say that?"

It was reported on the 30th of last month that recording for the web variety show 'Hal Myeong-su' was canceled. While rumors of production halt circulated, JTBC clarified to StarNews on the 1st: "While it is true that the scheduled recording of 'Hal Myeong-su' was canceled, there is nothing confirmed regarding a production halt."

On the 12th, JTBC declared default after failing to repay a total of 20.6 billion won in liquidity loans upon maturity. At the time, JTBC stated, "To resolve this situation as quickly and responsibly as possible, we will mobilize all available means internally and externally and do our best," adding that "production and broadcasting of broadcast content, including news coverage and major sports broadcasts, will continue to operate normally."

Subsequently, filming for JTBC's new drama 'Rediscovering Love' was halted. The production team of 'Rediscovering Love' announced, "Filming will be paused for about a month due to delays in script work," but some speculated it might be linked to JTBC's financial difficulties.

Rumors also surfaced that all variety programs except 'Ask Me Anything' and 'Love War' had halted filming, but JTBC denied this, stating, "Scheduled recordings will proceed normally according to the schedule."

The JoongAng Ilbo officially applied for corporate workout on the 19th of last month. Along with JTBC, holding company Jungang Holdings and subsidiaries ContentriJungang, MegaboxJungang, and Jungang P&I have entered corporate rehabilitation procedures.

On the 30th, the Seoul Bankruptcy Court approved the commencement of rehabilitation proceedings for Jungang Holdings, MegaboxJungang, Jungang P&I, and ContentriJungang. Additionally, it approved JTBC's application for the 'Autonomous Restructuring Support (ARS)' program.
