Attendees included PD Kim Min-jong; comedians Jang Dong-min and Lee Yong-jin; professor Jin Joong-kwon; broadcaster Jung Young-jin; singer\u2013actor Ye-won; political YouTuber Hellmouse; former Democratic Party Supreme Council member Park Seong-min; and former People Power Party spokesperson Kang Jeon-ae. <\/p>\n<p> Betting on Facts is a reality-news game show in which eight contestants live in isolation and assess the veracity of news items in an era saturated with misinformation. <\/p>\n<p> At the event, Jang said appearing on a survival-style program felt daunting at this stage of his career, but the concept\u2014testing the truthfulness of news\u2014piqued his interest because it was a format he had never tried. He added that it also felt like a chance to put other skills to the test. <\/p>\n<p> Lee explained that he has read a print newspaper every morning for about three years. After developing a deeper appreciation for the written word, the opportunity felt almost serendipitous\u2014a sign he should do it. He said he followed his instincts to participate and was confident the show would be a way to test his own mental acuity. <\/p>\n<p> Wavve will premiere Betting on Facts at 11 a.m. on the 27th. <\/p>\n<p> [Sports Today reporter Lim Si-ryeong <span><font color=\"blue\">ent@stoo.com<\/font><\/span>]<br \/>\u300cYour closest, most fun news \u24d2 Sports Today\u300d   <\/p>\n<div class=\"byeline\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- view_related --><!-- view_related\/\/ --><!-- \ubc14\uc774\ub77c\uc778 \ud558\ub2e8 2\uc904 \ud558\uc774\ub77c\uc774\ud2b8 --><!-- \ubc14\uc774\ub77c\uc778 \ud558\ub2e8 \ud558\uc774\ub77c\uc774\ud2b8 --><!-- next_article\/\/ --><\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"50%\"><\/td>\n<td align=\"right\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8216;Betting on Fact&#8217; features comedians and experts testing news authenticity in a reality show format.
