민주당TV 뜨자 김어준이 웃었다
The Democratic Party's TV (민주당티비, or 민티) launched its first live broadcast on the same day it was announced. Kim Ee-jeon interpreted this as contestants targeting Kim Ee-jeon's broadcast, but the broadcast attracted more viewers than usual. Kim Ee-jeon appeared on the '민티07' broadcast at 7 am, stating, "We start with new information or news, as we believe that's how a new Democratic Party should be."
The morning anchor, Park Yong-sik, previously worked at MBN and TV. Kim Ee-jeon detailed the 10 special committees within the party, 'Mega 10', which focus on social welfare and political reform, before participating in debates with legislators In-hyuk Lee and Eun-suk Kang, and political commentator Gang Su-yeong. The 37-minute broadcast recorded a peak of 50,053 simultaneous viewers.
The Democratic Party's promotional committee emphasized that this was a 10-fold increase over the average of 3,000 to 6,000 viewers for existing party spokesperson broadcasts. Kim Ee-jeon later tweeted, "It exceeded my expectation of 20,000," expressing enthusiasm for the start of a new era. The broadcast also saw a surge in simultaneous connections, reaching 21,000 viewers during prime hours on weekdays (7:05 am to 9 am).
Sponsorship revenue reached approximately 54.85 million won, a 29-fold increase from the previous day's 188 million won. LMIT plans to run a trial broadcast on Tuesdays and Thursdays for two weeks, followed by regular broadcasts from May 14th, Monday to Friday.
