‘A Bona Fide Killer’ Episode 10 Release Date, Time And Where To Watch The Next Chapter
Fans following MBC’s slice of life action drama have another new installment to look forward to this weekend. ‘A Bona Fide Killer’ is a South Korean series written by Kim Eun-hee and directed by Yoon Jong-ho and Kim Ji-hoon, based on the Kakao Webtoon of the same name.
The show follows Yoo Bo-na, played by Gong Hyo-jin, a married assassin whose husband Kwon Tae-seong, played by Jung Joon-won, is determined to uncover her secret life. With the tenth episode on the horizon, viewers want to know exactly when it airs, where to stream it, and what the preview has revealed so far.
‘A Bona Fide Killer’ Episode 10 Release Date And Time
‘A Bona Fide Killer’ consists of 14 episodes in total, with the run scheduled to premiere on July 31, 2026, and conclude on September 12, 2026, airing every Friday and Saturday. Episodes 7 and 8 aired on August 21 and 22, meaning the next two installments, episodes 9 and 10, land on August 28 and 29.
That places episode 10 on Saturday, August 29, 2026. Broadcasts on MBC TV air every Friday and Saturday at 21:50 KST. That time slot runs 80 minutes, from 21:50 to 23:10, though the episodes themselves typically run closer to 70 minutes.
For international viewers, the conversion has been consistent across the season. 21:50 KST translates to 12:50 UTC, which means the Friday broadcast lands on Friday morning in the Americas and Friday lunchtime in western Europe. Following that same pattern for a Saturday release, the equivalent Saturday episode has previously gone up at approximately 4pm GMT and 12pm ET.
There is also a hard deadline approaching for the show’s remaining run. MBC is set to shift into Asian Games coverage from September 19 through October 4, which is why the network’s next Friday and Saturday drama has already been pushed back to October 30, leaving no scheduled break for ‘A Bona Fide Killer’ before its finale.
Where To Watch ‘A Bona Fide Killer’ Episode 10
Domestically, the series airs on MBC TV in South Korea. Internationally, it streams on Rakuten Viki and Kocowa+ in supported regions, including the United States and Canada.
Viki’s own listing marks the series as neither subscription-gated nor rental-gated, meaning it can be watched without a Viki Pass in supported territories. Subtitle turnaround has varied by platform throughout the season, with Kocowa generally posting episodes with less delay than Viki.
Viewers can catch up on the story before episode 10 drops. Yoo Bo-na moonlights as Kingfisher, a legendary sniper carrying out justice where the law fails, while her husband Kwon Tae Seong and detective Lee Dong Jin both edge closer to the truth from different directions. The show has also drawn steady attention on streaming trackers, sitting among the more closely watched titles on JustWatch’s daily charts in the United States.
What To Expect From The Episode 10 Preview
The preview footage circulating for the upcoming episodes points to a tense escalation for the core trio. The material suggests the conflict between Bo-na, Tae-sung, and Seul-gi is set to intensify, with Seul-gi appearing determined to expose Bo-na’s hidden past while warning Tae-sung that he does not really know his wife.
That confrontation looks likely to strain Bo-na and Tae-sung’s marriage further as more of their secrets come to light. Detective Dong-jin is also shown pressuring Tae-sung to reveal Kingfisher’s identity, though Tae-sung refuses, telling him he has someone to protect.
Complicating matters further is the reappearance of a figure from Bo-na’s past. A past enemy resurfaces in the preview, creating an additional threat alongside the pressure already building at home. The footage ends on a cliffhanger, with Seul-gi kidnapping an unconscious Tae-sung, apparently intending to use him as leverage against Bo-na.
That sets up a direct collision between Bo-na’s two identities heading into episode 10. Given how tightly the show has tied Tae-sung’s safety to Bo-na’s secret, his abduction gives the next episode an obvious and immediate stake to resolve.
The Story So Far In A Bona Fide Killer
The season has built its tension gradually rather than all at once. Bo-na slid back into her sales-team desk at Durumi Electronics as though she never left, using the job as cover to pick her rifle back up as Kingfisher, while Tae-sung began noticing small inconsistencies in his own wife’s routine.
A stray shot that killed an innocent bystander turned public opinion against Kingfisher, prompting both Bo-na and Tae-sung to quietly walk away from the hunt for a time. Episode 7 then jumped backward to fill in the couple’s origin. It revealed how Bo-na and Tae-sung first crossed paths in 2018, when Bo-na found him badly injured after a confrontation while chasing a story, called an ambulance, and left before help arrived.
The two crossed paths again the next day at the hospital, and Tae-sung later found Bo-na standing near the edge of a rooftop, overwhelmed by her circumstances, and talked her down. That backstory has helped explain why detective Lee Dong Jin remains so relentless in pursuing the vigilante, even as Bo-na tries to keep her family, her job, and her survival from colliding.
On the reception side, the drama has performed well by its network’s standards. It opened at 7.4% nationwide and rose to 8.0% for its second episode, outperforming the entire run of the drama that previously held its time slot, with peak minute ratings reaching 9.4% and 10.6%.
With Tae-sung now in Seul-gi’s hands heading into the next episode, viewers have plenty to weigh in on, particularly whether Bo-na can save her husband without finally exposing Kingfisher to the one person she has spent years hiding from.
