English instructor Jo Jeong-sik, who is currently appearing in "Please Pass the Grades Teachers 2," is embroiled in allegations of illegal question transactions, and the production team has spoken out about it.
On the 13th, an interview for Channel A's entertainment program "Please Pass the Grades Teachers Season 2" (hereafter referred to as Teachers 2) was held in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul. Attending the interview were CP Kim Seung-hoon and PD Yoon Hye-ji.
"Teachers 2" is a program that provides tailored solutions to students and families concerned about grades. The first season, which aired from November 2023 to October 2024, garnered a peak viewership rating of 1.7% (according to Nielsen Korea's nationwide data) and received much love. The second season, featuring Yoon Hye-jung, has been meeting viewers since May.
"Teachers 2" has assembled a cast of MCs including Jeon Hyun-moo, Han Hye-jin, and Jang Young-ran, continuing from season one. Jeon Hyun-moo, a "Mokdong kid" and a three-time winner of the media examination, along with Jang Young-ran, known as a "Mokdong mom," adds authenticity to the program by sharing their experiences and empathizing with the participants.
PD Yoon Hye-ji commented on the MC lineup, saying, "We can't help but talk about Jeon Hyun-moo. I thought he is the only one who can relate and communicate like someone who just took the college entrance exam. There can be conflicts with parents during the study process as a Mokdong kid, but Jeon Hyun-moo has experienced everything our participants might face. He is irreplaceable as an MC who represents the students while understanding the teachers' perspective."
Furthermore, regarding Han Hye-jin, she said, "Her child is in elementary school. It wouldn't be far off to say they are facing entrance exams, and she seems to have worries and fears about that. She asks about these issues on-site, addressing the viewers' curiosities and concerns. Overall, the combination of the three MCs is perfect."
"Going forward with the perfect combination of three MCs, Teachers 2 has received a warm response from both parents and students. PD Yoon Hye-ji said, 'The mother of a participant from last season posted many heartfelt messages on social media after her child received a tailored solution and significantly improved their grades. Moreover, over 30 friends who have gone through Teachers have been in contact with the teachers, expressing their gratitude for the help received. I am grateful to be a part of this process.'"
