MBC cancels 'I Am a Singer 2'

MBC's Sunday evening music competition program, 'I Am a Singer 2', will be coming to an end.

"This had been decided upon since October," an MBC representative stated. "Although it unfortunately fell within the cancellation of both 'Come to Play' and 'What is Mom', it is entirely a coincidence that they happened to fall together."

The cancellation process began in the fall, with MBC stating that they had no plans to create Season 3. "The last episode will be broadcast on December 23rd." he said.

Although 'I Am a Singer 2' began airing earlier this year with much fanfare, it was not able to live up to the success of its predecessor as it was beset with quality control problems, stiff competition, and declining viewer interest.

Its replacement program will begin airing on January 6th. A specific plan for the show's replacement has yet to be decided upon.
