The revenge-themed film Buried Hearts is gradually coming to an end. The film has currently aired 14/16 episodes with high viewership ratings.
According to Nielsen Korea, in the latest episode aired on the evening of April 5, the work achieved a rating of 14.6% - the highest since its premiere, and became the most watched short-form TV series of the week.
In addition, Bury Heart is also the most watched show on Saturday in the 20 to 49 year old viewership group, with an average viewership rating of 3.6%. The film's appeal comes from the thrilling plot and impressive acting of the cast.
In the most recent development, Yum Jang Sun (Heo Joon Ho) ordered Heo Il Do (Lee Hae Young) to kill Seo Dong Joo (Park Hyung Sik) despite knowing that Dong Joo was the biological son of Heo Il Do.
Knowing this, Dong Joo's determination to take revenge on Jang Sun is stronger than ever, especially after his father - Heo Il Do passed away.
To publicize the evil deeds of Professor Yum, Dong Joo and those who helped him continue to face danger. But in return, after handing over the document named Bo Cong Anh, Dong Joo made Jang Sun admit to being the one who murdered Dong Joo's sister.
All of these actions by Professor Yum are related to a 2,000 billion won (about 1.4 billion USD) political black fund. This information was made public on livestream (live broadcast) making Yum Jang Sun angry.
The captivating performances of Park Hyung Sik and Heo Joon Ho in this segment were praised for their high cost, helping to increase the audience's curiosity about the content in the last 2 episodes.
Previously, when talking about the collaboration with the veteran actor, Park Hyung Sik said he felt very honored.
I learned a lot from senior Heo Joon Ho, but I see Yum Jang Sun (heo Joon Hos character) and Seo Dong Joo as characters with different energy sources.
Instead of thinking, I will radiate an energy without being overwhelmed by Yum Jang Sun, I focus on keeping Dong Joos emotions unchanged.
Because Dong Joo tends to think carefully about everything, I portrayed the character with a calm attitude. I think the contrast in energy between the two helped create tension in our scenes.
The last two episodes of the movie "Buried Heart" will air on the evening of April 11-12.
