The Satisfying 'Misaeng' Finale Scores Impressive Ratings

The popular tvN drama "Misaeng" wrapped up this weekend, delivering a satisfying ending and stellar ratings.

The finale's ratings were six times the percentage earned by the opening episode.

What makes the drama such an unlikely hit is that it concerns the heartbreaking realistic struggles of a young office worker. That worker Jang Geu Rae is at a disadvantage because he only has a GED as he was focused on becoming a professional baduk player.

He is hired as a temporary contract worker and despite his dedication and obvious intelligence has little chance of becoming a full time employee.
