On March 17, 'Weekly Idol' confirmed, "It's true that Heechul and Hani have been confirmed as the new MCs, but the contract we drew up with them says only until the return of MC Jung Hyung Don. Instead of the rotation MC system we've been using, Heechul and Hani will be fixed MCs alongside MC Defconn."


Regarding the vacancy of MC Donnie, the MBC staff revealed, "We cannot imagine 'Weekly Idol' without MC Jung Hyung Don, so we've decided to fill his position until his return. We've received no news on when he may be able to resume activities." 


Jung Hyung Don put a halt to all of his activities as a comedian and variety star due to mental health related issues in November of 2015.
