On the 1st, 'Today N' introduced the story of a cast member who returned to a small mountain village in Pohang, Gyeongsangbuk-do under the title of 'The Man Who Created My Own Kingdom in the Oji Mountains'. In the process, viewers pointed out after the broadcast about the PD's words and actions in charge of the interview.
On this day, the producer said, "You must have some money when the main character said that there are three houses you built yourself. When asked, "Do you have a lot of money?" and showed off the loess room built by the main character himself, the PD responded, "I'm not old enough to like loess rooms yet." "At this age, you have to keep moving your hands and feet," he joked to the main character who revealed his drum hobby, "You can do fieldwork, right?" and when he said he would pack oyster mushrooms he had grown himself, he raised viewers' eyebrows by saying, "It's all in the Seoul mart."
After the broadcast, the viewer bulletin board was flooded with complaints such as "I feel really bad from the first day of the new year with words and actions that make the other person feel ashamed," and "It will be watched by various age groups, but it will not be good for children and old people will be offended."
