"Confidence Man KR" Shifts Time Slot After Struggling Ratings
by. ymchoi

Park Min-young's latest drama has faced disappointing viewership, prompting a major scheduling change.

TV Chosun's weekend drama Confidence Man KR (written by Hong Seung-hyun, Kim Da-hye; directed by Nam Ki-hoon) will air from episode 5 at 10:30 p.m., moving from its original 9:10 p.m. slot.

The adjustment is seen as a strategy to avoid direct competition. tvN's The Tyrant's Chef has already surpassed 15% viewership, forcing a tactical decision. However, the new time still partially overlaps with SBS's Mantis: The Murderer's Outing, raising questions about audience retention.

The drama's turnaround remains uncertain. Since its September 6 premiere, Confidence Man KR has struggled to gain momentum, with ratings dropping to just 0.9% by episode 4.

Another challenge looms as JTBC's 100 Memories, starring Kim Da-mi and Shin Ye-eun, has begun drawing viewers, hitting 3.6% by episode 2.

Confidence Man KR follows three swindlers who target greedy, power-hungry individuals through outrageous schemes. Whether the time slot shift will revive its fortunes is yet to be seen.
