In the final episode of tvN's Saturday-Sunday Drama 'Thank You' (played by Choi Min-ho, directed by Kwon Young-il and Ju Sang-gyu), Shin Cha-il (Shin Ha-kyun), Koo Jeong-soo (Lee Jung-ha), Hwang Dae-woong (Jin-gu), and Yoon Seo-jin (Cho A-ram) joined forces to capture the `King of Rats' Hwang Se-woong (Jeong Moon-sung) and provide viewers with a thrilling catharsis.
Accordingly, the viewership for the final episode of tvN" averaged 10.1% and 12.4% for households in the metropolitan area, 9.5% and 11.7% for households nationwide. Both the metropolitan area and the national standard not only broke their own highest ratings, but also topped cable and general service channels at the same time, ending a pleasant period.

Shin Cha-il, who was engulfed in flames due to Hwang Se-woong's ruse, managed to escape the crisis with the help of Hwang Dae-woong, who appeared on the scene just in time. Shin Cha-il headed to Hwang Geon-woong's funeral home with a sick body because an autopsy must be performed before the body of Hwang Geon-woong (Lee Do-yeop) is cremated to reveal his true identity. Shin Cha-il, who stimulated Hwang Geon-woong's wife to obtain consent for an autopsy, accelerated the collection of other evidence to confirm that Hwang was the actual owner of the arch design.
Feeling a sense of crisis, Hwang Se-woong moved Shin Cha-il to the work support team and quickly destroyed the evidence. Even the death of Chae Jong-woo (Heo Jun-seok), who can be a safekeeper and key witness, shocked the viewers by the misdeeds of Hwang Se-woong who crossed the line. Hwang Se-woong, who even accused Hwang of killing Hwang Gun-woong, immediately convened an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders and concluded that Hwang Dae-woong was dismissed.
However, the situation quickly turned around when Hwang Dae-woong entered the general shareholders' meeting with Shin Cha-il, Koo Ja-soo, and Yoon Seo-jin. Shin Cha-il released the evidence he collected one by one, proving Hwang Se-woong's charges one by one, and Chae Jong-woo, who thought he was dead, appeared at the scene and confessed the decisive testimony that Hwang tried to kill him. In addition, as the circumstances that Hwang Se-woong killed Hwang Geon-woong were revealed, Hwang was eventually brought to justice, giving him the pleasure.
Shin Cha-il, who caught the biggest rat eating away at JU Construction, said goodbye to Hwang Dae-woong, who became the president, by offering his resignation letter. Shin Cha-il, who said hello to the audit team's family members who were friendly enough to exchange jokes, gave warm support to the new employee Koo Ja-soo, who was following him particularly, creating warmth. Shin Cha-il's hard look, which was offered a scout by the Board of Audit and Inspection after leaving the company to reliable employees, made us look forward to his project to eradicate corruption in the future.
In this way, tvN 'Thank You' presented a thrilling catharsis by depicting the process of resolving various irregularities and irregularities prevalent in the company, starting with Lee Sung-pa, audit team leader Shin Cha-il, and emotional new employee Koo Ja-soo. It caused empathy by dealing with big cases such as embezzlement, technology leakage, and slush fund creation, as well as individual issues such as company bullying and infidelity.
In particular, the combination play of Shin Cha-il and Koo Ja-soo, who relentlessly punish corruption offenders who betrayed their faith, shone more and more. For my people, the twisted relationship between the characters, such as Hwang Dae-woong's unexpected charm and Yoon Seo-jin's opening-up to colleagues, added to the fun of watching.
The close relationship between these characters doubled the sense of immersion with the enthusiastic performance of the actors who fell in love with the character. tvN 'Thank You', which combines the story development, sensuous production, and music that maximizes the atmosphere of the scene from the occurrence of the incident to the resolution, opened a new horizon for the well-made office investigation.
tvN's Saturday-Sunday drama 'Thank You', which tells the story of an audit team struggling to create a trust-based society, warned embezzlement criminals and comforted victims, ending the corruption eradication project.
