According to Nielsen Korea, episode 10 of Mr. Kims Dream Life recorded the highest viewership rating of 5.4% since its premiere. This achievement shows that the story of the life and work of middle-aged people still receives the attention of a certain group of audiences.
According to the latest developments, the male lead Kim Nak Soo (Ryu Seung Ryong) told his wife the truth about buying a commercial apartment after spending all his unemployment benefits and bank loans. However, apartments now have no source of income because of the location that few people are interested in. To earn money, Mr. Kim even went to work at his brother-in-law's company, driving for hire...
Due to prolonged pressure and stress, Mr. Kim suffered from panic disorder and had to seek advice from a psychologist. From here, his stories in the past are once again brought back. It turned out that after more than 50 years, he still thinks about the banana that his mother bought but lost to her brother Kim Chang Soo (Go Chang Suk), a saying he disregards when he happily shows off his status as a vice-captain.
For Nak Soo, it was a big blow because he was a small value in the family, while Chang Soo could no longer remember any memories. Compared to his younger brother's happy attitude every time his younger brother failed, Chang Soo could not hide his sadness when he learned that his younger brother had been fired for many years and had been scammed out of the severance pay.
Mr. Kim's incident in the film makes many people feel sympathetic, because difficulties can come to anyone at any time. However, the most important thing is to dare to look at reality and strive to overcome it.
For example, Mr. Kim seems to have "poned the burden" after being honest with his wife about everything, his panic disorder has also subsided somewhat. Since the difficulties, he and his son have also had more time to talk and get closer. This is also the value that the film aims for - the meaning of a fulfilling life and never be too strict with yourself.
Also aired on the evening of November 23, Jung Il Woo's "The Golden Time" with a rating of 16.8% in episode 32, the highest since its premiere, and also the most watched program of the week; while Lee June's "Storm Family" still could not reach the double-digit rating mark.
