Right off the bat, we have some new dramas — Born Again and When My Love Blooms. Born Again didn’t start off too strongly and immediately lost a good chunk of viewers the next day. On the other hand, When My Love Blooms came in hot with 5.4 percent.
Of course, with new dramas, we have to say goodbye to some of the old. Monday-Tuesday dramas Nobody Knows and I’ll Find You on a Beautiful Day both finished with decent numbers, the former reaching a personal best of 11.4 percent. A Piece of Your Mind will be finishing its 12-episode run (formerly 16) next week.
Hospital Playlist is still doin’ its thing, beating its personal record every week, as is the hit drama A Couple’s World. In fact, A Couple’s World’s ratings are, most likely, a week away from beating SKY Castle’s (I’m calling it!). And then there’s The King, whose ratings took a bit of a dip. Not a good sign for a drama of this caliber.
