According to Sports Chosun, the new faces of “M Countdown” are expected to consist of five idols, each from one of the five major music agencies in Korea.
Artists from JYP Entertainment, YG Entertainment, CJ ENM’s sub-label WakeOne, and other top five agencies will each take one spot, forming a “golden lineup.”
It is very rare for members from these five major agencies to unite as a single MC group for a music show. In the fiercely competitive K-pop market, driven by agency pride, this formation can be seen as the musical broadcast version of the “Avengers.”
Discussions are ongoing whether all five will be male idols, female idols, or a mixed-gender group.
