The existence of Kim Rosa (Won Mi-kyung), Kim Ok-hee (Jang Young-nam), Yeom Seong-hong (Kim Sun-young), and Kang Wol-soon (Cha Mi-kyung) in tvN's Saturday-Sunday drama 『Miji's Seoul" (directed by Park Shin-woo and Nam Gun) has a profound impact on the lives of twin sisters Yoo Mi-ji (Park Bo-young), Yoo Mi-rae (Park Bo-young), and Lee Ho-su (Park Jin-young).
First of all, Kim Rosa, the building owner of Rosa Restaurant, whom Yu Mi-ji met while pretending to be Yoo Mirae, is catching the attention of those who see it as a twist behind the rough appearance. Unlike his tiger-like face, which does not easily give up, he formed a strong chemistry by keeping Yumi-ji's secret and giving Lee a friendly hand like his own grandmother.
On the other hand, Kim Ok-hee, the mother of twin sisters, is upsetting Yu Mi-ji and Yu Mi-rae with subtle and minor differences while raising twin sisters who have the same face and everything is different. However, Kim Ok-hee's anxiety about whether her daughter, who barely overcame the pain, would go back into the dark again made her guess her own affectionate mother-in-law who loved both daughters.
On the other hand, Yeom Yong-hong, Lee Ho's mother, feels a strange distance from her son, who raised her alone after her husband's death. I feel sorry for Lee Ho, who has turned into an awkward relationship after going to Seoul after going to college, but I am feeling lonely alone without showing it. Nevertheless, Yeom's motherhood, which is always busy showing off her son, adds warmth to the play.
At the same time, grandmother Kang Wol-soon, the spiritual support of Yu Mi-ji and Yu Mi-rae, makes everyone's eyes wet with her extreme affection and warm comfort for her granddaughter. One word thrown to comfort her granddaughter, who was tired of living in Seoul, touched the hearts of viewers and created a famous scene that they wanted to see again.
In this way, Kim Rosa, Kim Ok-hee, Yeom Yeol-hong, and Kang Wol-soon in 'Unknown Seoul' have a strong relationship with Yu Mi-ji, sisters Yu Mi-rae, and Lee Ho, conveying all the joys and sorrows of life. In particular, Won Mi-kyung (played by Kim Rosa), Jang Young-nam (played by Kim Ok-hee), Kim Sun-young (played by Yeom Bun-hong), and Cha Mi-kyung (played by Kang Wol-soon) doubled their immersion by setting the center of the play with deep official records.
Thanks to the enthusiastic performance of trusted actors, 'Unknown Seoul' went viral after its first broadcast, and both households and 2049 target viewers ranked first in the same time period on cable and general programming channels for six consecutive episodes. Among them, viewership in the last six episodes has soared to a maximum of 8.1 percent in the Seoul metropolitan area, proving its popularity.(Based on a paid platform integrating cable, IPTV, and satellite/provided by Nielsen Korea) In addition, both dramas and cast members have been ranked at the top of the TV-OTT popularity ranking released by Good Data Corporation (Fundex) for three consecutive weeks, continuing their upward trend. (As of June 10, 2025)
It is establishing itself as a new life drama. Above all, it is steadily rising in the ratings and topical rankings, so I look forward to the next story of 'Unknown Seoul.'
tvN's Saturday-Sunday drama 'Unknown Seoul' will air the 7th episode at 9:20 p.m. on the 14th.
