[Ecohoon] The Return of Warm Broadcasting Programs

Recently, many entertainment programs unintentionally highlight the negative aspects of family life.

Society and the economy say there's a problem because people aren't having children.

Beyond the frustration of having to solve societal problems, I think overly negative and sensationalistic stories are making society anxious through the media.

I'm married, and I watch these programs as cautionary tales. But if someone who isn't married were to watch them, who could possibly dream of marriage, of having that longing for it?

Still, there are people around me who are married, have children, and raise them well, and hearing their stories can bring me positive feelings.

Everyone likes sensationalism. And people constantly seek new thrills. These thrills mostly stem from negative elements.

In the past, there were many programs that benefited society, such as "Neukkimpyo" (느낌표) and "Love House" (러브하우스). They were also popular. While there are trends in broadcasting, just as fashion trends cycle, shouldn't this trend return as well?

Considering the function of media, people unknowingly trust and accept what the media says. Therefore, we must view media programs with our own judgment. Consequently, if we only watch sensational content, our own thoughts become sensational, leading us to think that way. Conversely, watching beneficial content can produce the opposite effect.

I hope that media will once again use its positive functions and strengths to make the world a warmer place. I hope we can heal by watching healthy, good, and warm things.
