This week’s chart is looking lighter than usual, but the coming premiere wave is sure to fix that. For now, we just got one premiere — fantasy thriller Happiness. The drama came in with a decent 3.3 percent and managed to stay steady going into the next day.
Meanwhile, The King’s Affection made a nice jump to 7.6 percent, its highest rating so far. (Once Inspector Joy joins this slot next week, it’ll be interesting to see how the two sageuks compare.) We then had the finales for High Class and One the Woman, both ending with strong numbers.
