History
Prior to the current Show! Music Core, numerous music programs with similar content were aired on MBC. Below is the list in chronological order.
| Broadcast date | Program name |
|---|---|
| October 30, 1989 – November 2, 1990 | Show Network (쇼 네트워크) |
| November 9, 1990 – April 30, 1993 | Everyone's Popular Songs (여러분의 인기가요) |
| May 7, 1993 – October 8, 1993 | Choice Best Popular Songs (결정 최고 인기가요) |
| April 21, 1995 – January 17, 1998 | Popular Songs Best 50 (인기가요 베스트 50) |
| January 24, 1998 – April 18, 1998 | Live Young Times (생방송 젊은 그대) |
| April 25, 1998 – January 23, 1999 | Music Camp (음악캠프) |
| February 30, 1999 – May 8, 1999 | Family Camp (가족캠프) |
| May 15, 1999 – July 30, 2005 | Live Music Camp (생방송 음악캠프) |
Live Music Camp was cancelled due to a broadcast accident of revealing genitalia.[2]
After a brief hiatus, Show! Music Core began airing on October 29, 2005, with charts similar to its predecessors. However, the charts were removed on January 7, 2006, and it continues to air without any charts or awards. Even without the weekly chart award, the show was known for its special production and stages.
From 2007 to 2008, a "Mobile Ranking" segment was used to rank the popularity of songs downloaded to mobile phones and from online music sites.[3]
On March 11, 2013, MBC announced that they would return their chart system after seven years without the segment. The ranking system was reinstalled on April 20, 2013, with a first-place trophy given to the top song amongst the nominees for each week.[4]
November 21, 2015, MBC announced that their chart system would be removed once again. The MBC variety department said: "Instead of the ranking system, we intend to show more diverse genres of music and continue to work hard to be a representative music program of Korea.”[5]
On February 11, 2016, MBC announced a trial phase of their simultaneous live broadcast of Show! Music Core in HD and UHD (ultra-high-definition) utilizing a dedicated 4K camera, in preparation for their launch of UHD broadcasts scheduled for 2017. The trial phase had taken place February 13 through March 12, 2016.[1]
On April 5, 2017, MBC announced that they would, yet again, return to their chart ranking system since April 22, 2017.[6]
