Idol on Quiz (Korean: 퀴즈 위의 아이돌) is a South Korean quiz variety television program that airs on KBS2.[1] It often features a combination of native Korean and global idols from various groups as guests.[2]

On November 6, 2020, it was confirmed that Jung Hyung-don will step down from the show after the episode on November 21 due to his hiatus. Kim Jong-min, originally a fixed guest of the show, will temporarily replace Jung as the co-host alongside Jang Sung-kyu.[3] It was reported that the last recordings for the show were completed on November 11, and the show concluded on December 5.[4]
