TV Chosun announced on its official SNS account on the 15th that "'Confidence Man KR' has been changed from 9:10 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday." It is an unusual measure taken suddenly, drawing attention.
'Confidence Man KR' also received attention as the first Amazon Prime Video Korean original, but it got off to a rough start. After starting at 1.1% in the first inning (Nilson Korea, national standard), it seemed to rise to 1.5% in the second, but fell to 1% in the third and 0.9% in the fourth, recording the lowest ratings. Despite the colorful make-up and colorful fraud, 'Silly' has not avoided the harsh criticism.
On the other hand, tvN 'The Tyrant's Chef' at the same time surpassed double-digit ratings in a row and soared to a whopping 15.4%.
In fact, in the solo performance of 'tyrant's chef', a structure that is difficult for 'Confidence Man KR' to endure has been formed. The industry interprets it as an "inevitable choice to avoid the explosive popularity of competing works".
Attention is focusing on the future viewership trend whether 'Confidence Man KR', which aims to change the new phase with an unusual change in broadcast time, will succeed in rebounding or collapse as it is.
The fifth episode of Confidence Man KR will air at 10:30 p.m. on the 20th.
