The latest Wednesday-Thursday drama by JTBC, 'Frankly Speaking', debuted to remarkable success, garnering over 1.2 million views and 2.5 million viewing hours on Netflix's Global TOP 10 TV (non-English) category in its first week. The show secured the 8th position in the rankings and showcased its popularity by making it to the top 10 in nine countries, including Brazil, Hong Kong, Indonesia, and Malaysia.

Portraying the ambitious Ultra FM announcer striving for the coveted anchor position, Go Kyung Pyo's character, Song Ki Baek, has always been diligent, earning the title of the "blue chip announcer." However, a sudden electric shock incident exposes his unfiltered truths, leading to a plummet in his reputation both within the company and externally.

Despite his setbacks, Song Ki Baek's participation in the anchor audition brings a glimmer of hope for redemption, with support from his colleague On Woo Joo, played by Kang Han Na. Yet, the released still cuts hint at an unexpected twist, leaving viewers intrigued about whether Ki-baek's audacious tongue will jeopardize his dream once again.

You can catch 'Frankly Speaking' on JTBC or Netflix.
