Good Day (TV program)

Heralded as G-Dragon's inaugural solo entertainment show,^[3] Good Day—a variety program crafted in the format of a reality show^[4]— was helmed by Kim Tae-ho, the renowned producer of Infinite Challenge (2005–2018).^[5] It marked the two's first reunion since their long-standing collaborations on the program, including appearances in the show's music competitions and episodes like "Muhan Sangsa".^[3] This venture marks Kim's first return to MBC in three years since his last work Hangout with Yoo;^[6] before resigning from the broadcasting network in 2021 to establish his own production company TEO that same year.^[5]

The program's inception stemmed from an idea proposed by G-Dragon himself,^[3][6][2] inspired by his aspiration to use music for a "meaningful purpose".^[4]

In reaction to an ongoing scandal involving Kim Soo-hyun, and after consulting MBC and global OTT platforms airing the show, the production team has decided to edit episode 5 "urgently to remove Kim Soo Hyun's footage" the day before its release, making the episode "approximately 10 minutes shorter than usual and lacked some details",^[11][12] although two days before, on March 13, a representative from the show stated that the filming proceeded as scheduled with Kim Soo-hyun but his participation was minimized.^[13][14] On the 17th, with the controversy still growing, the production company announced via an official statement that they will edit out as much of Kim's screen time as possible going forward, prioritizing viewer reactions.^[11][12] In consequence, the individual recording session sequence involving Kim filmed on March 13 will not be aired, and episode 6, which was scheduled to air on March 23, has been postponed for a week to "reorganize the program".^[15]
