Ko Yoon-jung is performing enthusiastically as Oh Oh Young, a first-year resident of the obstetrics and gynecology department at Jongno Yulje Hospital, in the tvN Saturday-Sunday drama 'Someday the Life of a Sloggi Major ' (hereinafter 'Eonseuljeon ') which is currently airing. In the play, Ohi-young, who started her residency to pay off her debt, is breaking down into a narrative of Ohi-young's character, which is cold on the outside but warm on the inside.
In particular, Ko Yoon-jung is leading viewers' interest and immersion in the drama by raising viewers' empathy with her acting skills of 'stick' to the Oi-young character. The main response is that Ko Yoon-jung and Ohi-young permeated the character so that they could not be seen separately. Ko Yoon-jung's performance was reflected in the ratings and topical rankings of 'Unseuljeon'.
In the third week of April (2025.4.14-2025.4.21 aggregate) announced by Good Data Corporation Fundex, a K-content competitiveness analysis agency, Ko Yoon-jung ranked first for two consecutive weeks in the overall TV-OTT integrated hot topic list. 'Unseuljeon' also proved the enthusiastic response of viewers, ranking first in the TV-OTT drama category. On top of that, 'Unseuljeon' was also listed in the rankings of the broadcasting video programs that Koreans like in April by 'Gallup', and the views of 'Unseuljeon' related videos uploaded to YouTube and SNS also reached nearly 200 million views, proving high immersion.
Ko Yun-jeong also shows a variety of attractive spectrum through the character Oi-young in 'Unseuljeon'. As a first-year resident, Ko Yoon-jung's comprehensive gift set, such as a young side that flutters, a heart-wrenching acting that exudes humanity, a lovely romance acting that flutters and goes straight to a man you like, and a cute comedy acting even if it's broken, is also on the rise.
Unseuljeon started with a national viewership of 3.7% in the first episode (based on Nielsen Korea) and is breaking the highest ratings in each episode until the second (4.0%), the third (4.5%), and the fourth (5.1%). In particular, tvN's target 2049 male and female viewership ranked first in the same time period (based on paid platforms integrated with cable, IPTV, and satellite) in all channels including terrestrial broadcasting nationwide in both 3 and 4 episodes, demonstrating the 'Go Yoon-jeong effect'.
In addition, 'Unseuljeon' captured global viewers by ranking 10th globally in the Netflix TV show category as of April 21 on the site 'Flix Patrol', which compiles global OTT (online video service) rankings. Among the top 10 Asian works, 'Unseuljeon' is the only one, and it's not an original Netflix series, so it's drawing attention.
tvN 'Someday, the Life of a Major in a Slower' will air at 9:20 p.m. every Saturday, with the addition of Ko Yoon-jung's charm to raise the popularity and viewership at the same time.
