'Kill Me, Heal Me' Slays The Competition In Ratings

Audiences have continued to support “Kill Me, Heal Me” in the viewership battle of psychological K-Dramas. According to a February 19 report from Nielsen Korea, episode 13 of “Kill Me, Heal Me” reached the top of the Wednesday-Thursday 9:55 p.m. bringing in 10.3% of viewers nationwide.

“Jekyll, Hyde, and I” starring Hyun Bin witnessed a drop in ratings, bringing in its lowest numbers since the show premiered on January 21.

Both dramas entered the week with startling cliff-hangers.

“Jekyll, Hyde, and I” revealed a startling secret about Yoon Tae Joo (Sung Joon). Tae Joo, who has functioned as a hypnotherapist on the show, was outed as the primary culprit behind the disappearance of Dr. Kang. Meanwhile, Jang Ha Na (Han Ji Min) grew closer to Hyun Bin’s characters Seo Jin and Robin, establishing the foundation for a love triangle with one man.

This plot shift did not help “Jekyll, Hyde, and I.” The drama continues to struggle with low ratings, with episode 9 bringing in 4.7% of viewers nationwide.

“Kill Me, Heal Me” continues to draw in fans who are fascinated by the seven personalities portrayed by Ji Sung. Audiences have shown particular interest in Ahn Yo Na, a feisty teenager. Yo Na made another appearance during episode 13 of the program.

The drama continued its lively spirit as Yo Na tried to doggedly seduce Oh Ri On (Park Seo Joon). The program provided huge laughs as the two male actors struggled with one another, with Ji managing to enthusiastically kiss Park.

KBS2 deviated from its regular programming to provide special Lunar New Year programming. The network aired “A Hard Way,” which achieved 8% of viewership, beating out “Jekyll, Hyde, and I.”
