'Bogum Magical' rookie barber Park Bo Gum, who bled from a hairdressing scissor on the first day, faces another unprecedented crisis.
On the 20th (Fri), the fourth episode of tvN 'Bogum Magical' (directed by Son Soo-jung) recorded an average nationwide household rating of 3.4%, a peak of 4.6%, an average metropolitan household rating of 3.5%, and a peak of 4.6%, achieving its highest ratings to date. Also, on Feb. 24 (Tue), Good Data Corporation's FUNdex released its TV-OTT non-drama celebrity topicality rankings for the third week of February, in which Park Bo Gum ranked second in the TV-OTT non-drama performer topicality category, and 'Bogum Magical' placed seventh in the TV-OTT non-drama category, demonstrating the program's dominance in both ratings and topicality.
Amid this heated excitement, today's (27th) fifth episode will feature an emergency in which, for the first time since the barbershop opened, a customer demands to stop the haircut mid-service. The four-year-old customer reached the limit of patience with Park Bo Gum's meticulous procedure aimed at a perfect style. Viewers are left wondering how Park Bo Gum will overcome this difficulty.
Meanwhile, Park Hae-jun and Choi Dae-hoon, who worked hard as the barbershop's three brothers and part-timer, finish a tiring day together over dinner. In particular, Park Hae-jun prepares the boiled pork and beef radish soup the three brothers wanted to eat, showcasing not only his skills as a top part-timer but also his dependable role as the eldest brother. The sincere and cheerful conversations exchanged at the dinner table are expected to be another highlight of the broadcast.
On the fourth day of operation, Park Bo Gum, Lee Sang Yi and Kwak Dong- yeon dream of shortened hours. But the barbershop becomes busy when six neighborhood association customers arrive early after hearing the rumor. With a rush of open-run customers, Park Bo Gum must do four blow-dries and Lee Sang Yi must perform nail care for two people right as business opens.
As curiosity grows over how the three brothers will handle the sudden influx of services, Park Bo Gum's eyes reportedly redden during a treatment, increasing viewers' desire to watch the broadcast to find out what happened.
Also, the appearance of an elderly chairman whose heavy charisma makes Park Bo Gum nervous, combined with an unexpected surge of work missions, leads to a barbershop business day in which nothing can be predicted. Whether Park Bo Gum, Lee Sang Yi and Kwak Dong- yeon will overcome these unprecedented hurdles and achieve their longed-for shortened hours will be revealed on tvN 'Bogum Magical,' which airs tonight (27th) at 8:35 p.m.
