‘Treasure Island’ Park Hyung-sik announces a counterattack on Heo Joon-ho.

SBS‘s Friday-Saturday drama ‘Treasure Island’ (written by Lee Myung-hee/directed by Jin Chang-gyu/produced by Studio S, A2Z Entertainment, Purumir Factory) is fiercely racing towards its midway point. Episode 6 of ‘Treasure Island’, which aired on March 8, recorded a nationwide viewership rating of 11.2% according to Nielsen Korea, taking first place among all channels and Friday-Saturday dramas in the same time slot. This is a 3%P increase from the previous episode, breaking its own record once again.

The response is that the shocking ending played a big role in the viewership ratings for Episode 6 of ‘Treasure Island’ was able to skyrocket. In the ending of Episode 6, Yeom Jang-seon decides to give Seo Dong-joo, who lost his memory due to the shock, an even bigger shock in order to restore his memory. Here, he drove Seo Dong-ju’s older sister, Sister Agnes (played by Han Ji-hye), to death right in front of his eyes.

Seo Dong-ju almost died several times because of Yeom Jang-sun. As if that wasn‘t enough, his only family, his older sister, also died right in front of his eyes because of Yeom Jang-sun. As it is expected that Seo Dong-ju has regained his memory, his heart cannot help but burn with revenge toward Yeom Jang-sun. Many viewers are eagerly waiting for episode 7 of ‘Treasure Island’, anticipating Seo Dong-ju’s thrilling counterattack.



In the meantime, on March 14, the production team of ‘Treasure Island’ revealed a photo of Seo Dong-ju and Yeom Jang-sun at a funeral. In the photo, Seo Dong-ju is guarding the funeral as the chief mourner. Seo Dong-ju‘s expression, empty and desolate as if he has lost his soul, evokes pity. Yeom Jang-seon, who then appears at the funeral, is still observing Seo Dong-ju with eyes full of suspicion. It seems that she wants to check if Seo Dong-ju has regained his memories.

In the next photo, you can see that Seo Dong-ju’s eyes suddenly change and shine. Attention is being paid to how Seo Dong-ju will pressure Yeom Jang-seon and how he will counterattack against him. In the last photo, Yeom Jang-seon‘s somewhat anxious and uneasy expression further increases expectations for Seo Dong-ju’s counterattack.

In relation to this, the production team of ‘Treasure Island’ said, “In episode 7 that will air today (the 14th), Seo Dong-ju, who has lost his only family, finally starts to counterattack against Yeom Jang-seon. Seo Dong-ju, who boldly and comprehensively pressures Yeom Jang-seon, will contrast with Yeom Jang-seon, who is gradually being cornered, and this will provide a thrill to viewers. The overwhelming performances of the two actors, Park Hyung-sik and Heo Joon-ho, will create the best synergy. He said, “Please look forward to it.”

It’s showtime from now on. Episode 7 of the SBS Friday-Saturday drama ‘Treasure Island’, where Seo Dong-ju’s counterattack begins, will air tonight, Friday, March 14 at 9:50 p.m.
