Some big news ahead, both good and bad for our shows. For the most part, there was little change in the chart, everyone maintaining their respective audiences. Unfortunately, this became a negative for the quiet romance A Piece of Your Mind; after a few weeks of low ratings, the production team decided to shorten the drama from 16 episodes to 12. The statement claimed that they wanted to tighten the writing for its remaining run time, so hopefully, at the very least, fans of the drama aren’t entirely disappointed.
In the second half of the week, legal drama Hyena finished its run with a personal best of 14.6 percent. Hyena wasn’t the only one — Hospital Playlist continued to break its own record as well, jumping up to 11.3 percent. Now, for the really good news, A Couple’s World’s ratings have officially surpassed not only Itaewon Class, but Goblin and Answer Me 1988. With a full 10 more episodes to go, A Couple’s World is already the third highest rated cable drama of all time, and it’s quickly comin’ for Crash Landing and the almighty SKY Castle.
