K-pop fans looking to catch the first music show of the year will have to wait a little longer. SBS announced that 'Inkigayo' will not be airing its scheduled episode today, January 4, 2026.

SBS Inkigayo January 4 Hiatus Details

According to reports from Soompi, SBS originally planned a three-week break at the end of 2025. The popular music program last aired on December 7, subsequently skipping broadcasts on December 14, 21, and 28. While many expected a return to the stage today, the hiatus has been extended into the first week of the new year.

The network's decision means that 'Inkigayo' has been off the air for four consecutive weeks. This prolonged absence is often attributed to the logistical demands of year-end award shows and the seasonal reorganization of broadcasting schedules to accommodate new programming for the first quarter.
