"MusicFest Tonight" was broadcast live on television and on video streaming websites online. Netizens also live-commented as each of the performances were happening.
This Friday's episode was proving to be one of the most popular and most discussed. It was also on its way into obtaining the highest TV rating against other programs broadcast in the same time slot.
Part of the reason why this episode garnered this much attention was because of Iris Long's comeback performance. Both JJ's record label and Bright Summit did an excellent job in heavily promoting her upcoming comeback album.
The biggest reason, however, was Jin Chonglin. An A-list artist like him was akin to a god descending upon the mortal realm to display his might and magnificence, while at the same time showering everyone with blessings. His massive army of fans alone would already guarantee an excellent viewership rating for any show he guested in.
