The MBC drama “My Name is Kim Sam-soon” is recording viewer ratings of 37.7 percent, the highest for a drama this year, AGB Nielsen Media Research said Thursday. The program recorded the same ratings in a survey by TNS Media Korea, topping the year’s previous record of 36.2 percent set by KBS weekend drama “Letters to the Parents.”
The secret to the success of “Kim Sam-soon” is the blunt dialogue and the popularity with women, who drive ratings, of a protagonist many of them can sympathize with.

The show, which hit the airwaves on June 1, recorded nationwide viewer ratings of 30.5 percent (TNS Media Korea) in just four episodes.
