Watching someone cry out of fear isn't something we should expect in a variety show

A minor spoiler ahead. The members started off this season with Muchaburi dodgeball, a segment in the Bingo series where it's dodgeball + a penalty game for whoever gets hit out. This is where I have a major problem with.As much as I know how horrible some of the games in Muchaburi dodgeball can get, inviting a pro-wrestler to scare members to the point where there are members who actually started shaking in fear, isn't a fun segment to watch. Even if it were scripted, I honestly do not understand why the writers expect the audience to want to watch girls crying out of fear. The only saving grace is that the MCs did do their best to calm the girls who were crying, not in the rough and brusque manner of AKBingo in the past, but composedly. It honestly looked like they understand why the girls would be afraid of doing these penalty games but for the sake of the show, they had to comfort and talk them into going on with it.I'm not blaming the MCs for not being able to do anything much other than comfort the members, or the pro-wrestler for scaring the members. The writers though, they clearly do not write for people of this generation. Their scenarios are for the people of the past and someone on top should step in stop this sick culture of showing crying, fearful young girls on television.
