Controversy
The broadcast got backlash from netizens due to the nature of the show.
= Flood in Busan =
On 24 July 2020, the show went under fire for covering the Busan flood as if a lighthearted issue. The corresponding clip was since put to private.
= [[2020 Beirut explosions|Beirut explosions]] =
The Korea Communications Commission issued a warning against the show for an 5 August 2020 segment on the Beirut explosions. Viewers were aggravated with the way the show covered about the explosions, particularly with the sports broadcasting format and the "observation points". Two days later, Yang Won-bo told audience that "we always listen to [audience] feedback and heed them."{{Cite web|date=2020-08-07|title=JTBC '310중계석', 베이루트 폭발 대참사 보도에 "관전포인트"|url=https://entertain.v.daum.net/v/20200807171801834|access-date=2020-08-09|website=다음 연예|language=ko}} The corresponding clip was then put to private.
= Bicycle stealing =
On 21 October 2020, anchor Yang Won-bo reported on an article about the Netherlands having a lot of bicycle thieves, of which he responded with a sarcastic nuance, saying he can protest at the Dutch embassy. On that same segment, he made a joke to commentator Park Sung-tae about it, saying "you experienced [having a bike stolen from you]."
