What a crazy week… We said goodbye to a few shows, said hello to one, and witnessed what I can only call a near-disaster. That near-disaster was River, which went through re-casting and re-filming chaos due to the male lead’s scandal. Despite that chaos, the drama’s ratings managed to stay afloat around 8 percent.
Fellow Monday-Tuesday dramas Sunbae and L.U.C.A. simmered down to a quiet end, their final ratings neither their best or worst. Then, over the weekend, we had the premiere of our new 50-episode family drama Revolutionary Sisters. As expected, the drama jumped into the ring and garnered over 20 percent.
