There were a lot of finales this week, so let’s get right to them. Up first, in the Monday-Tuesday slot, the thriller The Cursed finished its 12 episode run with a high of 6.7 percent. Then, midweek, the rom-com Forest finished its 16 episode run with 5.3 percent — not its best but definitely not its worst.
Once we got to the weekend, we had to say goodbye to Beautiful Love Wonderful Life after a whopping 100 episodes; the family drama hit 30 percent back in February and hit it many times again afterwards. Itaewon Class proved to be a popular drama as well, having been in double digits from its third week to its last.
Backtracking a bit, we also had a premiere to replace Wednesday-Thursday drama The Game: Towards Zero. Newcomer Find Me in Your Memory came in with 4.5 percent and stayed within 3 percent the next day. The numbers are still pretty low but normal for this particular timeslot. At least Hospital Playlist is getting some love.
