SEOUL, Apr. 28 (Yonhap) – tvN’s new Wednesday and Thursday drama “The Killer’s Shopping List,” which humorously depicts the investigation of murder cases, marked its start by ranking No. 1 in viewership with the first broadcast.
The first episode of “The Killer’s Shopping List,” which was aired on Apr. 27 at 10:30 p.m., recorded a viewer rating of 3.6 percent, according to the ratings company Nielsen Korea on Thursday.
The first episode portrays how the status of Daesung market and the owner’s son Ahn Dae-sung(played by Lee Kwang-soo) fell to the floor as the time passed by.
Daesung market, which was once popular in the neighborhood, transformed into MS market after renewal but it had difficult times as the number of customers decreased due to the generalization of online shipping, and the owner’s son Ahn Dae-sung (Lee Kwang-soo), who was called a genius with excellent observation skills and memory, became an intern at MS market.
Dae-sung, who started working at the market, finds out that products that were not ordered are being delivered to his regulars, and he finds the dead body of his regular customer in the grass near the apartment while tracking them.
It displays humorous scene as the episode is produced like a cartoon.
The scenes where Jin Myeong-sook(Jin Hee-kyung), Dae-sung’s mother, threw a strong spike with a plastic bag full of rice while fighting against Oh Cheon-won(Jang Won-young), the counterfeit money criminal, and where Dae-sung confessed his love to his angry girlfriend Do Ah-hee(Seol-hyun) with barcodes of the products that read, "Oh baby, don’t go” and “I love you forever,” made viewers laugh.
Moreover, the characters, including Do Ah-hee, who has been dating Dae-sung for 20 years, Ahn Young-chun(Shin Sung-woo), Dae-sung's father who is considerate and warm to his family, Gong-san(Kim Mi-hwa), Ya-chae(Oh Hye-won), Jeong-yuk(Lee Gyo-yeop), and Saeng-sun(Park Ji-bin), added fun to the drama.
Meanwhile, JTBC’s “Green Mothers’ Club” and KBS 2TV’s “Going to You at a Speed of 493km,” which were aired on the same day, each recorded 2.8 percent and 1.7 percent in viewership.
