JTBC’s ‘Language Training-Charlazhala‘ has seen its viewership‍ decline to 0%, despite ‌featuring‍ middle-aged actors. The show, which blends travel entertainment with English language training, has struggled to resonate with audiences, resulting in limited re-broadcasting and a cool reception.

The first episode of ‘Shala Shala’, which aired last month, featured a ⁣cast with an average age of 52.8 ‌years. The cast includes Seong Dong-il,Kim Kwang-kyu,Um Ki-joon,Jang Hyuk,and ‌Shin Seung-hwan. Seong Dong-il, ‍notably, sent his first son to a prestigious engineering school after science high school. During the show’s production presentation, Seong Dong-il admitted, I was the first generation in middle and high school. I am not ashamed of​ not being able to speak English at all.

Seong Dong-il’s‌ unfiltered personality was showcased on the broadcast. In one instance, he expressed ​frustration after being stuck for more than three hours on the london Underground, leading to a potential halt in⁢ filming. he also gained attention for confidently communicating ‌with locals using ⁤minimal English.During a conversation ⁤about fatherhood, Seong ‌Dong-il shared, I was born as an illegitimate child. So I didn’t know how to do it to my child. I was a‌ scary father to the kids. I was sorry. I regretted to fix it earlier.

Despite the initial expectations, ‘Shalashala’ experienced low viewership. The​ show started with 2.1% viewership ​for ‌its ‌first episode, which then dropped to 1% after two episodes. It eventually recorded a minimum viewing rate of 0.9% in its seventh episode. Industry experts suggest that one reason for the decline is ‌the change in‌ scheduling. ‘Shalashala’ was initially scheduled for Wednesday at 10:20 p.m., but was suddenly moved to Saturday at 7:10 p.m.

JTBC has⁤ a history of shifting entertainment programs that struggle ​in ⁣ratings. Saturday evenings are considered a competitive time slot, making it ‌difficult to achieve ​high viewership. last year, another show also struggled with a 1% rating and was moved after four episodes, eventually dropping to a 0% rating.

The show’s unclear identity, caught between travel and language training, is also seen as a factor in its declining viewership. ‘Shalashala’ attempts to integrate language ⁣training​ into the travel entertainment format. However, the program’s focus on classroom activities and assignments at an English language school⁢ has been criticized for lacking entertainment‌ value. The blurring of lines between travel and language training, with scenes of daily life and interactions with locals, has further contributed to the show’s identity crisis.

Due to low re-broadcasting rates, industry insiders believe it will be difficult for ‘Chala Shala’ ‌to recover its viewership in the second half of its run.Despite initial promise, the show appears to be nearing its end.
