DoReMi Market (Korean: 도레미 마켓; RR: Doremi Maket), better known as Amazing Saturday^[a] (놀라운 토요일; Nollaun Toyo-il), is a South Korean variety show that airs every Saturday at 19:40 (KST) on tvN.^[1]

Program[edit]

In each episode, a market from South Korea is featured and within it there are three types of food selected as its representatives. The cast and guest(s) have to play games and win to be able to enjoy the food.^[2] There will be a dressing theme concept for the cast and guest(s) to follow for filming of each episode.

For episodes 1-4, the program format is only three rounds of song dictation. From episode 5, the program format changed to two rounds of song dictation, with a Snack Time in between the dictation segments.

Games played[edit]

Song Dictation: Viewers can recommend songs (and the specific parts of the songs) through a Google Form for use in the show.^[3] The cast and guest(s) have to work together to note down all the correct lyrics that was being sung in a small part of the song chosen to play. For each song, they will be given only three attempts to get all the correct lyrics. For every failed attempt, the food will be consumed by Mukbang YouTuber Small-mouthed Haetnim.

• On failing the first attempt, the amount of the food to be shared by the cast and guest(s) would be cut by half.
• On failing the second attempt, the amount of the food to be shared would be cut to only 1-2 servings.
• If they have completely failed, no food would be given.

For each attempt, a representative from the cast and guest(s) would go up and present their final answer, and if the answer is wrong, the representative gets the popcorn punishment.

On the first attempt, only the basic chances are provided, and the chances from the Chance Board can only be used on the second and third attempts. After using a chance from the chance board, the part of the song is played again. The same chance cannot be used twice in the same round. Starting episode 201, for every episode, the chances from the Chance Board that were used in Song 1 cannot be used in Song 2.

• Basic Chances (given on the first attempt):
  • One Shot (for the cast member(s)/guest(s) who jotted down the closest answer to the correct answer on the first listen)
  • Number of words
  • Song information
  • Lyrics before and after the part used^[b]
  • Existence and number of words in English (and/or words from other non-Korean languages)
  • Existence and number of numbers
• Other Chances:
  • Listen Again Chance: The part of the song is repeated again. This chance can only be used once for every episode, either in Song 1 or Song 2. Beginning episode 148, this chance can be carried forward to the next episode if unused, leading to more times this chance can be used.
  • Last Place's Listen Again Chance: Similar to the Listen Again Chance, in which it can only be used once for every episode, but this chance is only for the last place in one shot on the first attempt of the song dictation. If there are two or more people who are in last place and one of them is a guest, then the guest will get the chance. If the last place is shared by the cast members, the person who has the less cumulative number of one shots will get the chance. This chance was added in episode 201.
  • Guest Hero Ball: This chance is specially for the guests of each episode, and all guests of each episode would each be entitled to one hero ball pick, either in the first song or the second song. He/she would randomly pick a ball that contains one of the words of the lyrics, and he/she must not let the cast and other guest(s) know this word. This is to let the guests have an advantage over the cast members, who have more experience in song dictation. This chance was introduced in episode 282.

This segment is important in deciding whether to use the Listen Again Chance in the first or second round of song dictation, as it is a chance that can only be used once per episode. This chance was not available after episode 269.

A second version of song dictation was introduced in episode 225, where it was played as a team match between two teams. Additional rules were put in place for only this version.

• There are three lines to dictate, with each team taking one line. Each team has six attempts (five for episode 258) to note down the correct lyrics of their own line, with the team(s) with the fewest attempts getting to eat the food first, and only the last team would not get to eat the food. After the first team's success, if the remaining two teams succeeded on the same attempt, the food would be provided to both teams.
• As there would be six attempts provided, there would be no Listen Again Chance and Last Place Listen Again Chance, but each team can choose a chance of their choice on the Chance Board on every attempt beginning the second attempt, as Random Hint was already provided in the first attempt for episodes 244–245. There is no Random Hint for episode 258.

A fourth version of song dictation was introduced in episode 300, where it was played as mafia song dictation. Additional rules were put in place for only this version.

• Through a lottery, from the 9 playing cast members there are 7 citizens and 2 mafias.
• The 2 mafias will start the dictation knowing all the correct lyrics beforehand.
• There are a total of five attempts, and after each failed attempt, voting of the mafia would be done. The arrested member cannot participate in subsequent attempt(s) of the song dictation. If a mafia has a One Shot but is arrested, that One Shot would not be added to the One Shot statistics.
• In addition, the mafia team can delete a chance out of the available chances (total eight) on the Chance Board after failing an attempt to arrest the mafia.^[c]
• If the cast succeeds in the song dictation or if both mafias are arrested before all the song dictation attempts, the citizen team wins. The mafia team wins if the song dictation is failed. The winning team would receive a prize of ₩3,000,000.

A fifth version of song dictation was introduced in episode 309, where it was played as speed song dictation. Additional rules were put in place for only this version.

• The cast members and guests are split into 4 teams of 4, and there are 6 rounds of song dictation. Each song has 4 lines, with the single words shown as markers of the start of the answering lines for each team member.
• After the leader gets the chance by pressing the button, the team answers all the lines in order.
• All 4 teams can choose to attempt or pass. If one team answers wrongly, they cannot answer again until the other teams have either attempted or passed.
• Boom would then reveal the number of words in each line after all teams had their first attempts, and the 4 teams listen to the part one more time. Afterwards, all 4 teams can choose to attempt or pass again, then they listen to the part one more time.
• Boom can give one word of the lyrics to the team that wins a mini game.
• The team that answers all 4 lines of the song correctly first wins a point(s).^[d]

One Shots[edit]

A One Shot is given to the cast member/guest who has jotted down the closest answer to the correct answer on the first listen, only on the first attempt of the song dictations. This is usually calculated by the number of correct characters (in Hangul) written down in comparison to the correct answer. While the One Shot is usually given to one person, there were instances where a tie between two or more people have occurred; in this case, they will share the One Shot.
