On November 5th, the Korean Business Research Institute revealed the most popular variety shows through the brand reputation rankings for November.
The data was collected over the month of October and was organized into the top 20 variety shows in Korea. The top three shows are all on the MBC network, marking a big success for the variety-friendly network.
