MBC series “The Greatest Love” starring Cha Seung-won and Kong Hyo-jin stayed No. 1 in the Wednesday and Thursdays primetime race for the fourth week in-a-row, according to results yielded by two media research companies on Friday.
“The Greatest Love” came out first against two other primetime dramas after posting an average viewership rating of 13.8 percent on survey by Total National Multimedia Statistics (TNmS) and 17.85 percent on AGB Nielsen Media Research’s (AGB) poll.
SBS romance action “City Hunter” starring Lee Mi-ho and Park Min-young, arrived second on the chart for the fourth consecutive week as well, having scored average viewership ratings of 13.1 percent on TNmS’ chart and another 13.75 percent on AGB’s report.
“City Hunter,” which tells of the story of a man raised to avenge for the death of his birth father and his colleagues whose lives were sacrificed by the whim of five corrupt politicians, is based on a popular Japanese comic of the same name by Tsukasa Hojo and stands as the prequel to it.
The drama, which centers its plot on a romance between a conglomerate’s son and his housemaid, is also a comical parody of how people can be swayed by money.
