The rookie cops in "You Are All Surrounded" managed to fumble their first case while the show fell in the ratings. The drama did stay in first place though, coming ahead of the competition, MBC's A New Leaf" and the KBS revenge drama "Golden Cross."
On Wednesday night, "You Are All Surrounded" rated 12.1 percent of the viewers, which was a drop from the last episode's rating of 14.2 percent. The third episode was also lower than the first episode, which scored 12.3 percent.
In the latest episode, the rookies, known collectively as P4, went on and messed up their first mission. The new recruits at the Gangnam Police Station are Eun Dae Gu, played by Lee Seung Gi, Eo Soo Sun, played by Go Ara, Park Tae Il, played by Ahn Jae Hyun and Ji Gook, played by Park Jung Min. They are not the most enthusiastic recruits and their chief, the hot-tempered Seo Pan Suk, played by Cha Seung Won wishes they would just go away.
Because of the gun theft at the club incident, Seo Pan Suk is punishing them with terrible assignments in the hopes that they will quit.
The detectives played by Lee Seung Gi and Go Ara are stalking a stalker but their incompetence leads to the victim being stabbed. It's a sobering realization when they are faced with the consequences of their actions.
Meanwhile "A New Leaf" stayed in second place with ratings of 8.2 percent. Kim Myung Min's character Seok Ju has amnesia but can still remember the law. So he knows how to act like a lawyer. He just can't remember any of the decisions that led to his arriving at an important decision, which threatens his firm with punitive lawsuits. Also, having forgotten just how bad he had to get to become the successful lawyer he was, he may also be a nicer guy. This might lead Park Min Young's character Ji Yoon to reappraise the man she so disliked when she first met him.
"Golden Cross," the drama about a man who plots revenge against a secret society known as Golden Cross, came in third place with 8.0 percent of the viewers. The society frames prosecutor Kang Do Yoon, played by Kim Kang Woo, for the murder of his sister. He plots revenge against the man behind the organization only to find out that he is the father of the woman he loves.
The variety show "Radio Star" earned 6.8 percent of the ratings, while "Oh My Baby" rated at 5.7 percent.
