The popular KBS Entertainment variety show ‘Problem Child in House’ faced an unexpected cancellation on October 30, 2025. KBS 2TV preempted its regular programming to provide live coverage of a major sporting event. The decision was made to broadcast Game 4 of the 2025 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO Postseason Korean Series, leading to the variety show cancellation.
KBO Postseason Takes Precedence Over KBS Entertainment
The schedule disruption was prompted by the crucial Korean Series matchup between the Hanwha Eagles and the LG Twins. Live coverage of the KBO Postseason game began at 6:10 PM, directly conflicting with the broadcast times for several evening shows. This preemption for the Korean Series is a common practice for major national sporting events, which often take priority over regularly scheduled entertainment programs.
About ‘Problem Child in House’ and Its Cast
‘Problem Child in House’ is a beloved knowledge-based talk show where the cast and guests gather to solve a variety of challenging questions and problems.

Other Programs Affected by the Korean Series
The variety show cancellation was part of a broader schedule change. ‘Problem Child in House’ was not the only program affected by the KBO Postseason broadcast. Viewers also missed episodes of ‘You Are My Lady’ and ‘Miss Ripley’, which were scheduled to air earlier in the evening. The entire primetime block on KBS 2TV was ultimately dedicated to the high-stakes baseball game. Fans of the affected shows are encouraged to check local listings for information on rescheduled broadcast dates. The preemption underscores the significant cultural draw of the KBO Postseason, with broadcasters adjusting schedules to deliver the live sporting action to a nationwide audience.
