An SBS rep told OSEN on May 14, "'Inkigayo' and 'UtChatSa' are set to air in their regular time slot this week... We are still being careful. There is still a possibility that there will be a change in the case of 'UtChatSa'."

A 'Music Bank' rep also told OSEN, "Although 'Music Bank' is set to air this week, as there is still a solemn atmosphere in light of the Sewol tragedy, a cancellation might be unavoidable... Although we are preparing for the broadcast, there is a higher chance that it will be canceled."

If 'Music Bank' is canceled this week, it will be the fifth week since the music show has been off air. Meanwhile, 'Inkigayo' will join 'M! Countdown' and 'Music Core' as one of the music shows to watch this weekend.
