tvN 'The guy is a black dragon' Moon Ga-young and Choi Hyun-wook's first kiss while drunk devastated the living room with overwhelming excitement.
On the 3rd, the broadcast of tvN's Monday-Tuesday drama 'The guy is a black dragon' (directed by Lee Soo-hyun/written by Kim Soo-yeon/produced by Studio N/planned by Studio Dragon) recorded a viewership rating of an average of 4.9% and a peak of 6.4% based on households in the capital region, and an average of 4.9% and a peak of 6.2% nationwide, setting a new record for its highest viewership. Both nationwide and in the capital region, it ranked first in its time slot, including cable and general programming. In addition, the 2049 viewership rating, which is tvN's target audience, was 2.3% nationwide, ranking first in its time slot across all channels, including terrestrial.
In this episode, the change in the relationship between Baek Soo-jung (played by Moon Ga-young) and Ban Joo-yeon (played by Choi Hyun-wook) began. Soo-jung received an urgent call from Seo Ha-jin (played by Lim Se-mi) stating that 'there is a black dragon in the store' and left with Joo-yeon. During this process, the two got very close in a narrow alley, and Joo-yeon waited for Soo-jung to take the bus home, continuing the excitement.
Ha-jin was shocked to learn that the 'Deputy Minister Ban Joo-yeon' that Soo-jung mentioned was actually 'the black dragon.' Ha-jin became worried about the closeness between Soo-jung and Joo-yeon, not knowing each other's identities, and informed Kim Shin-won (played by Kwak Si-yang) that Joo-yeon's first love 'Strawberry' was Soo-jung. The two devised a plan to separate Soo-jung and Joo-yeon. However, this plan ironically led Joo-yeon to become lost in imagination, creating a humorous misunderstanding.
Such interference actually brought Soo-jung and Joo-yeon closer together. After work, Soo-jung's meeting alone with Shin-won caught the attention of other employees, and the two were swept up in rumors of a romantic involvement. Additionally, Joo-yeon, misunderstanding the relationship between Soo-jung and Shin-won, went to Soo-jung's house late at night and handed over a comic book titled 'If you give me 6,000 won, I'll kiss you' while humorously suggesting, 'It explains in detail why you shouldn't fall for a playboy.'
However, the misunderstanding was soon resolved, and Soo-jung explained to Joo-yeon, 'It's better to be a little clumsy and awkward with me than to be kind and smiley toward everyone.' In response, Joo-yeon indirectly expressed her feelings by saying, '(If Soo-jung had been interested in Shin-won) I would stop you. I just don't like it.'
Meanwhile, the two went on a business trip to the local area. It was aimed at convincing the vendors for the food court of the department store renewal project. However, the ranch representative (played by Park Jung-ja) had strong prejudices against conglomerates, prompting Soo-jung to introduce Joo-yeon as not the Deputy Minister but her younger brother. Joo-yeon complained, 'Why specifically a younger brother? A boyfriend could be younger too,' but eventually helped persuade the vendors together with Soo-jung.
Subsequently, the two ended up unintentionally spending the night at the ranch. While sharing drinks on a lounge chair, they found common ground. As they began sharing stories of their first loves, the atmosphere became strangely heated. During a phone call with Ha-jin, Soo-jung remarked, 'I don't see the Deputy Minister as a man. He's the same age as my younger sibling, Baek Soo-bin,' which disheartened Joo-yeon, who felt increasingly treated like a younger sibling.
Ultimately, in the ending, Joo-yeon suddenly kissed Soo-jung, shocking the living room. When Soo-jung woke Joo-yeon from her drunken sleep, she asked, 'Why do you keep ignoring me in an unpleasant way?' and then kissed her. Moreover, with the direct line, 'Do I not look like a man even now?' she pulled her shoulder, elevating viewers' heart rates to their peak. The bold advance of the younger Deputy Minister Joo-yeon heightened the excitement, while curiosity arose over how the two, who still harbored ill feelings about their first loves, would react upon discovering they were 'Strawberry and the black dragon.'
tvN's Monday-Tuesday drama 'The guy is a black dragon' will air its 6th episode today (the 4th) at 8:50 p.m.
