MBC¡¯s ¡°The Duo¡± marked its sixth consecutive win on one primetime TV chart while SBS¡¯ ¡°Midas¡± rejoiced its first win on the other, revealed two media research companies on Wednesday.

According to data by Total National Multimedia Research Statistics (TNmS), MBC¡¯s historical drama ¡°The Duo¡± posted an average viewership rating of 12.9 percent this week, showing a slight drop in numbers from last time but managing to maintain its No. 1 spot.

SBS series ¡°Midas¡± came very close, however, marking a score of 12.8 percent which is about a 0.4 percent improvement from last time.

In contrast, AGB Nielson Media Research¡¯s (AGB) poll deemed ¡°Midas¡± the winner of the Mondays and Tuesdays primetime slot this week, yielding an average viewership rating of 15.6 percent while "The Duo" posted a score of 15.1 percent.

Meanwhile, KBS drama ¡°Detectives In Trouble¡± continued to fall behind in both charts, revealing means of 7.9 percent and 6.9 percent on TNmS¡¯ survey and AGB¡¯s report, respectively.

In this week¡¯s episodes for ¡°The Duo,¡± Chun-dung (Chun Jung-myung) becomes angry at Dong-nyeo (Han Ji-hye) for discriminating people depending on bloodline and social status. He makes up his mind to become the head of righteous thieves Yaraejeok after rescuing Hunter Kang from a government official.

In ¡°Midas,¡± In-hye (Kim Hee-ae) begins to fight Do-hyun (Jang Hyuk) when he starts to interfere with her attempt to take over ShinHeung Bank through HanYoung Bank. She in turn, tries to put a stop on Do-hyun¡¯s efforts to revive ShinHeung Bank.

In ¡°Detectives In Trouble,¡± the guy in disguise of a policeman turns out to be the serial killer who killed the bar girls. The culprit has the childhood trauma of watching his mother, also a bar girl, hang herself.
