Weekly Idol (Hangul: 주간 아이돌) is a South Korean variety show, which airs Wednesday nights on the MBCevery1 channel. The show is hosted by comedian Jeong Hyeong Don and rapper Defconn.
The show consists of several segments, one of which is called "Real Chart! Idol Self-Ranking", where idols are asked to rank each other on different topics and the results are then presented.
"Idol of the Week", the second segment, on the other hand features idol groups as the invited guests. The first idol group to record an episode and appear in the segment was INFINITE. This segment usually consists of several featured corners:
"Random Play Dance" – The staff played any songs that had been promoted by the guests. A song usually stop at a random point or change to another song while the guests must dance with the proper choreography for each song.
"Profile Verification" – The hosts (Hyung Don and Defconn) featured the profile, info, facts, and rumors about the guest that prepared by the staff at a profile card. The idols need to verify, or even, voluntarily prove its before the MCs.
"Win Against Idol" – The guests playing a game together with the hosts. If the guests can beat the hosts, the winning side will get the special prize and (rarely) the losing side (usually the hosts) will get the physical punishment from the winners.
"Grill Idol" – A special corner where the guests must answered correctly the questions from the hosts that appeared on a panel. Only after the guests get the question right they can eating the grilled Hanwoo beefs that prepared by the staff.
