"Undercover Miss Hong" marked a pleasant start with a 3.5% viewership rating on its first broadcast.

tvN's Saturday-Sunday drama "Undercover Miss Hong" (written by Moon Hyun-kyung and directed by Park Seon-ho), which first aired on the 17th, caught the attention of viewers with its speedy development. In the first episode, an unconventional first story was held in Yeouido at the end of the 1990s, in which elite securities supervisor Hong Geum-bo (Park Shin-hye) conducted a disguised employment as a 20-year-old employee to find out the truth of the suspicious slush fund. On this day, viewership averaged 3.5%, up to 4.3%, 3.2% and up to 4% based on the metropolitan area. (Based on paid platforms integrating cable, IPTV, and satellite / provided by Nielsen Korea)

Hong Geum-bo's first appearance, called the "Yeouido Witch" for her outstanding ability and relentless and determined way of handling work, opened the drama intensely. Hong Geum-bo's appearance of not compromising on injustice, not being discouraged by any insults, and sending an outspoken high-kick to his boss gave an impact from the beginning. Meanwhile, Hong Geum-bo received an e-mail from a person named "Yeppi" containing a report on corruption of Korean citizenship rights, and joined hands with President Kang Myung-hwi (Choi Won-young), who decided to file an internal complaint, to secure evidence to prove corruption of Korean citizenship rights.

However, the situation changed rapidly when President Kang died in an accident. Criticism against the Securities Supervisory Service was formed as questions were raised whether it was an extreme choice due to pressure from the arrest investigation, and Korean Securities Co. quickly escaped the crisis. To make matters worse, Hong Geum-bo was caught in a tight spot by being disciplined for communicating separately with Kang. In response, Hong Geum-bo's boss Yoon Jae-beom (played by Kim Won-hae) proposed an extraordinary operation to find slush funds by disguising them as low-ranking employees inside the Korean citizenship zone. After witnessing a public press conference marked with falsehoods by Kang Pil-beom (Lee Deok-hwa), CEO Kang's father and chairman of Han Min-kwon, Hong Geum-bo recalled his memories of his past days as an accounting firm. Afterwards, Hong Geum-bo accepted the undercover offer, piquing the question of why she changed her mind.

Hong Geum-bo's left-handed transformation to make her look 20 years old drew laughter. Hong Geum-bo, who entered the makeover from head to toe with special tutoring from his younger brother Hong Jang-mi (Shin Yu-na), finally borrowed Hong Jang-mi's name to take the entrance exam, passed with high grades and succeeded in camouflaging himself as a new employee of the Korean citizenship certificate. At the end of the century, discriminatory remarks that were prevalent in the whole society and Hong Geum-bo's cool moves to break through the company's executives' eyes gave catharsis.

Hong Geum-bo focused on finding the slush funds of Korean citizenship rights and identifying the identity of CEO Kang's assistant and whistleblower "Yeppi." Hong Geum-bo entered the dormitory of unmarried female workers in Seoul to get closer to her, noting that Koh Bok-hee (Ha Yoon-kyung), Kang's secretary in charge, managed his schedule while he was alive. On top of that, Kang No-ra (Choi Ji-soo), who hid his identity as chairman Kang's biological daughter and joined the Korean citizenship card, and Kim Mi-sook (Kang Chae-young), a window worker for the Korean citizenship card's Magang branch, gathered in room 301 and started a suspicious cohabitation. While four women with different purposes and stories gathered in one space to reveal their intense personalities, Ko Bok-hee's keen gaze, which seemed to see through Hong Geum-bo's identity, created a tense tension from the first meeting.

Meanwhile, in the second episode, which will be broadcast on the 18th, a new president will appear to succeed Kang, and the internal power structure of the Korean citizenship will fluctuate. At the same time, Hong Geum-bo's hard work life is unfolding in earnest, and expectations are rising as the survival period of left-handedness among colleagues has been predicted. Attention is focusing on what kind of story "Undercover Miss Hong," which combines unique characters and exhilarating narratives, will draw viewers' laughter and empathy in the future.

Meanwhile, the second episode of "Undercover Miss Hong" will air at 9:10 p.m. on the 18th.
