JTBC’s new drama “Strong Girl Namsoon” is off to a promising start!
A spin-off of the hit drama “Strong Woman Do Bong Soon,” “Strong Girl Namsoon” is a comedy about three generations of women born with unbelievable strength as they investigate drug-related crimes occurring around the Gangnam area. Lee Yoo Mi stars as Gang Nam Soon, an eccentric and bubbly girl with incredible strength who flies to Korea from Mongolia in order to find her parents.
On October 7, “Strong Girl Namsoon” premiered to higher viewership ratings than the original “Strong Woman Do Bong Soon.” According to Nielsen Korea, the first episode of “Strong Girl Namsoon” scored an average nationwide rating of 4.3 percent, taking first place in its time slot across all cable channels—and surpassing the premiere rating of 3.8 percent achieved by the original drama.
Meanwhile, SBS’s “The Escape of the Seven,” KBS 2TV’s “Live Your Own Life,” and tvN’s “Arthdal Chronicles 2” all took the night off due to coverage of the Asian Games.
