tvN's variety program 'You Quiz on the Block' firmly secured first place in its time slot with overwhelming viewership ratings.

Episode 354, broadcast on August 5, was presented as a special themed 'You Gotta Live Long to See It All.' According to Nielsen Korea's paid platform survey (metropolitan area households), the broadcast recorded a peak of 6.3% and an average of 4.7% in ratings, while nationwide households achieved a peak of 5.8% and an average of 4.4%. With these numbers, the show firmly defended its No. 1 position in the same time slot, including both cable and comprehensive programming channels. In particular, it also claimed first place in the same time slot across all channels, including terrestrial networks, among tvN's core 2049 male and female demographic, continuing to prove its steady popularity.

In this broadcast, Yoo Jae-suk met with protagonists of diverse stories. World-renowned magician Lee Eun-gyeol, known as the 'God of Magic,' appeared for an interview, along with grandmother Lim Bong-geun and her granddaughter Lim Da-un, who conveyed their family's love through hundreds of letters. Additionally, actor Eum Moon-seok, who overcame a long period of obscurity and gained attention through the film 'Hope,' made a noteworthy appearance, while singer Lee Seung-cheol, celebrating his 40th debut anniversary, showcased his representative hit songs in a special performance.

Next week's lineup, which is already drawing attention, is also a hot topic. Kim Do-hee, who gained attention as the 'dancing tambourine' on 'National Singing Contest,' the recently rising star Lee Seon-min, and Jeon Gyeong-cheol, a father fighting for the future of his autistic son after receiving a terminal diagnosis, are scheduled to appear. On top of that, a special appearance by world-renowned director Christopher Nolan and Hollywood actor Matt Damon, who formed a bond through the film 'Odyssey,' is previewed, building anticipation among viewers.
