THERE IS nothing better than watching TV shows on weekends aftera long, weary week of work. Laid back on a sofa with some snacks inone hand and the remote control in the other, fatigue melts away witha good laugh. However, there are some people who cannot fully enjoy theseentertaining TV shows on weekends - those who make them. Especially forNah Yung-suk ('94, Dept. of Public Admin.), the producer of "One Night,Two Days," every Sunday is nerve-wracking as he waits for the public'sreaction of the 80-minute piece in which he had poured all his energy overthe past week. Loved by people of all ages, and having the highest viewerratings among current variety shows, the program earned him great fame andhonor. However, behind the success, there was more to how he has made itup to this point.
