tvN's Saturday-Sunday drama "Undercover Miss Hong" recorded double-digit ratings for two consecutive weeks thanks to Park Shin-hye's strong performance.

In the 13th episode of "Undercover Miss Hong" (directed by Park Sun-ho, Na Ji-hyun / scripted by Moon Hyun-kyung / planned studio dragon / produced by Celltrion Entertainment, Studio Dragon), which aired on February 28, the performance of Hong Geum-bo (Park Shin-hye) and the emergence of new helpers were depicted to remove obstacles step by step to achieve the goal.

On this day, the audience rating continued to rise, ranking first in all channels at the same time with an average of 10.6%, up to 12.0%, 10.9% in the metropolitan area, and up to 12.6% in the paid platform that integrates cable, IPTV, and satellite. tvN's target men's and women's 2049 viewership was also up to 4.2%, ranking first in all channels including terrestrial broadcasting in the same time zone, once again imprinting its popularity as a weekend small screen.

On this day, Song Joo-ran (Park Mi-hyun), the head of the department, was surprised to learn that all the slush funds deposited into the Hong Rose account had been withdrawn. To make matters worse, he was angry when he found out that Hong Rose was Hong Geum-bo, a 35-year-old securities supervisor who used his brother's name to camouflage himself into Korean citizenship certificates. Director Song called out his roommate Ko Bok-hee (Ha Yoon-kyung), threatening to stand on his side, and putting pressure on him by visiting Hong Geum-bo himself. However, Hong Geum-bo was not embarrassed, but rather made an unconventional counter-proposal to return the slush funds if Shin Jung-woo (played by Ko Kyung-pyo) was removed from the position of president of the Korea Securities Co.

Meanwhile, Kang No-ra (Choi Ji-soo), who noticed a strange odor from Hong Geum-bo and Ko Bok-hee, asked what they were doing, but the two, whose ultimate goal is to destroy his biological father, Chairman Kang Pil-beom (Lee Deok-hwa), were in trouble because they could not answer. In the end, Kang No-ra, who secretly overheard the conversation between Hong Geum-bo and Shin Jung-woo, learned the relationship between the two from the past and the whole story of the undercover operation, and after grasping all the circumstances, asked Shin Jung-woo whether he still had his heart toward Hong Geum-bo. Shin Jung-woo, who shook his head and answered, "I don't want to repeat my regrets," felt the remorse and determination toward change from the fraudulent accounting of the Korean citizenship rights nine years ago, adding to the persuasive power he has shown so far.

In the end, the confrontation between Hong Geum-bo and Shin Jung-woo, who could not retreat at all, continued. Shin Jung-woo tried to get out of the Korean citizens' card, including Hong Rose's name on the second restructuring list, but Song, who had to monitor the whereabouts of the slush fund, dissuaded him to buy time and only issued a branch instead of leaving the company. On the other hand, Director Song's right-hand man, Bong Dal-soo (played by Kim Ro-ha), broke into dormitory 301 and tried to steal slush funds, and Hong Geum-bo, who felt a touch to check him from all sides, gave a new card to Director Song. He had a recording file containing secret stories between Shin Jung-woo and DK Ventures, who were trying to engulf the Korean citizenship rights.

Hong Geum-bo provided catharsis by starting a plan to cut off Chairman Kang Pil-beom's closest aides who act like limbs one by one. Director Song, who got the recording file due to Hong Geum-bo, immediately reported it to Chairman Kang, and Kang, who felt reprehensible, suggested DK Ventures to abandon Shin Jung-woo and join hands with him. In the end, Shin Jung-woo resigned as president of the Korea Securities Co., Ltd., and was in a position to break up his marriage with Kang No-ra.

At the end of the 13th inning, it was implied that new helpers would come to Hong Geum-bo, who achieved his goal. Kang No-ra came to the dormitory shortly after the breakup to soothe her sadness, found a bundle of cash, noticed the plans of Hong Geum-bo and Ko Bok-hee, and learned that slush funds raised in her name exist in Swiss overseas accounts. In addition, the ending scene where Hong Geum-bo offers Shin Jung-woo, who has nowhere to go, to cast the Yeouido Pirates, gave a fresh twist and raised expectations for the next episode to its peak.

After the broadcast, viewers said, "I feel happy to collect all the Hong Geum-bo cards," "It's crazy when Geum-bo and Song are added," "I want to have a sister like Geum-bo and Bok-hee," "Shin Jung-woo's character and Ko Kyung-pyo are perfect," "Park Shin-hye has good chemistry and acting no matter who she's against," "The development is so cool and unpredictable," "Geum-bo offers Jung-woo a pirate scout, will the two become a team? "I'm curious," he responded enthusiastically.

The 14th episode of "Undercover Miss Hong" will air at 9:10 p.m. on March 1.
