The drama, which started its first broadcast with a low rating of 0%, drew attention among netizens.
OCN’s new Saturday and Sunday drama ‘Kimira (played by Jin-mae Lee, directed by Do-hoon Kim)’, aired on the 30th, opened its doors with the first episode rating of 0.8% (provided by Nielsen Korea). The lead actors include Park Hae-soo, Lee Hee-jun, and Soo-hyeon.
In particular, Park Hae-soo, who played an active part in ‘Squid Game’, which has recently become popular all over the world, has gathered a lot of anticipation even before it aired. Suhyeon also drew attention because she was the first actress to be in the spotlight in a Hollywood blockbuster movie.
However, the ratings did not live up to the expectations of the cast. It seems that the ratings were affected by the fact that it was an original drama that was released on the OCN channel after a long time, so many viewers did not know about it, and that the JTBC drama ‘Gugyeongi’, the comeback of top star Lee Young-ae, was aired at the same time.
In fact, online community users said, “I didn’t know you were doing it”, “It seems that the publicity didn’t work”, “When did you start OCN drama again?”, “Didn’t you say that OCN drama was going to end?”, “It’s really the first time I’ve heard it,” “I need to know.” ” and so on.
Still, the reaction of viewers who saw the first episode was hot. After the first broadcast on that day, it was evaluated for its unpredictable development and bold directing. From the first scene, Cha Jae-hwan (hereinafter referred to as Park Hae-soo) drew the attention of viewers by directing a scene in which Lee Jung-yeop (hereafter Lee Hee-jun) aimed a gun.
Lee Jung-yeop pulled Cha Jae-hwan’s hand and pulled the trigger, heralding the start of a full-fledged incident. ‘Chimaira’ tells the story of homicide detective Jae-hwan, profiler Eugene (Soo-hyeon), and surgeon Joong-yeop to uncover the truth of the so-called ‘Chimaira’, a serial explosion and murder case that started again after 35 years for different purposes.
OCN’s ‘Chimaira’ airs every Saturday and Sunday at 10:30 PM.
