On August 3, the first episode was finally unveiled, however, it is becoming a hot topic among viewers and K-pop enthusiasts for the wrong reason.

First, WayZenNies (WayV fandom) are disappointed with how the show's flow made them feel like Ten and YangYang were only guests, rather than hosts of their own broadcast because of the focus on singer Han Heejun.

What made fans and viewers more uncomfortable watching the show was Han's sexist and fatphobic remark that goes beyond the channel's goal to influence listeners and viewers positively by sharing personal stories and life lessons.

Following the show, the snippets from the show where Heejun said those comments immediately spread online, receiving raised brows from K-pop enthusiasts and netters.

Since Dive Studios is known for its goal to promote positive living, fans are frustrated about how can they overlook such distasteful remarks. What made them disappointed even more was when the channel edited the clip without any apology.

As a result, people are hoping that they will leave out Han Heejun from the succeeding episodes and focus more on the main hosts of the show which are YangYang and Ten.

In fact, fans even pointed out that they felt like the duo wasn't also happy with Heejun's words after their expression visibly changed after hearing his TMI. However, they remained professional and salvaged the show with their chemistry and hosting skills.
