Speaking of Liu Zaishi, it can be said that it is one of the few artists in South Korea who does not have black powder, and the national popularity is very high, known as "National Mc".
As of 2021, Yoo Jae-seok has won a total of 15 awards at the performing arts awards of the three major Korean television stations. The "X-man", "Infinite Challenge", "Running Man" and "What to Do Idle" that he has hosted are all familiar variety shows.
Jiang Hudong joined the acting industry after retiring from the wrestling industry, and in 2003, he partnered with Liu Zaishi to host the show "X-man", and later hosted the program "Two Days and One Night", which achieved a miracle of 40% and 50% ratings, becoming the highest-rated variety show in Asia. In 2012, it was embroiled in a tax evasion controversy, and although the South Korean tax authorities clarified the suspicion, Jiang Hudong washed away the stigma of tax evasion.
But because of this incident, Jiang Hudong decided to retire temporarily. After his comeback, he and the famous Korean producer Luo Pd brought "New Journey to the West", a popular variety show. Subsequently, he was active in the audience's field of vision with popular programs such as "Brother I Know", "Ginger Canteen", and "The Great Escape".
These two can be said to be the two major mountains in the Korean host world. How high is Liu Zaishi's national popularity? When he announced his membership of FNC Brokerage in 2015, the company's stock rose or even went up and down. He has a good character that everyone praises and a moderate hosting style.
Before Jiang Hudong became the host, he was the number one hero in South Korea, and the wrestler's national popularity was also extremely high.
Liu Zaishi's ability to control the field is excellent, and in the eyes of others, Jiang Hudong's hosting style is very noisy, but it is very in line with Jiang Hudong's strong figure. The two host styles are very different, and as a rating guarantee, both are undoubtedly the main MC involved in the show.
In fact, the relationship between the two people in private should be good, and there is no personal grudge problem. The inability to share the stage may be due to various resources, different hosting styles and other issues.
If there is any program that can gather these two mcCs, then who should be the main MC? This is a difficult question.
Liu Zaishi is good at controlling the program process and skillfully picking up the stem, and the funny way is quiet; Jiang Hudong is very good at provoking the atmosphere and because of his big man, the style is strong, and the funny way is biased, which is often said to be "physical funny".
And as two hosts who are well known to the public, if the two host and participate in the program together, it will become the headline news. And the two people on the same stage will make the audience more expectant, but the greater the expectation, perhaps the greater the disappointment. If the program produced does not meet the expectations of the public, it will not only lose the production cost of the program, but also more or less affect the reputation of the two hosts. As a host, I think I will be very distressed about how far the program should be to meet everyone's expectations.
There are also many programs under the two men, and there may be contradictions in time.
The two occasionally mention each other on their own shows. Therefore, the fact that the two have not been on the same stage for many years is not because of the so-called entanglement of enmity.
