About 1000 teenagers age between 13 and 21 participated were asked on the research. 49.1 percent were boys and 50.9 percent were girls. The result shows that Ching Roi Ching Lan was the most popular game show for teenagers.
Versions
[edit]The show has been modified many times due to the lack of popularity when it started.
