SBS Friday variety show "My Genie Secretary" is keeping up its unstoppable momentum, holding the top spot on Netflix's variety charts for three consecutive weeks.
"My Genie Secretary" has maintained its position at No. 2 overall on Netflix's "Top 10 Series in South Korea Today" and No. 1 in the variety category for three consecutive weeks, while also ranking 4th on the weekly chart for the first week of September. Online reactions have been explosive as well, with cumulative digital views for major clips surpassing 30 million in just three episodes.
Amidst this buzz, actor Ji Changwook is set to return to "My Genie Secretary" as a "my star" on the September 18th broadcast.
In the pre-released teaser video, Lee Seo-jin and Kim Kwang-kyu were shown visiting the production presentation site for the drama "The Scandal". Unable to hide their excitement upon seeing Nana and Son Ye-jin attend together, the two drew laughter by jokingly trying to wait on them with full fandom devotion, saying, "Want some honey? Because you're pretty."
However, the true protagonist of the day was Ji Changwook, who had expressed some lingering regrets during his previous appearance. The production team prepared the first-ever "service upgrade" specifically for Ji Changwook, providing a dopamine-exploding "deviant service" spanning an arcade and a karaoke room. As Ji Changwook enjoyed himself, remarking, "I feel like I'm getting exhausted from playing," Lee Seo-jin delivered his signature spicy, blunt reality check that left the set in stitches, saying, "How can a person only live doing things they like?"
The upcoming episode of the hit variety show "My Genie Secretary" featuring Ji Changwook will air on Friday, September 18 at 11:10 p.m.
