According to statistics from Good Data Corporation, “The Tale of Lady Ok” continues to top the list of the most popular TV dramas of the week.
Lead actress Lim Ji Yeon also took the No. 1 spot on the list of most buzzworthy drama actors, while co-star Choo Young Woo came in at No. 6.
In episode 6 (aired on the evening of December 22), the drama continued to record its highest viewership rating since its broadcast, reaching 9.1%, according to Nielsen Korea.
The success of "The Legend of Mrs. Ok" was surprising, as the film had previously caused controversy about its content.
In which, the plot of Sung Yoon Gyeom (Choo Young Woo) revealing that he doesn't want to get married, can't be close to women but wants to borrow the wedding with Goo Deok Yi (Lim Ji Yeon) to hide his secret caused controversy because it was inconsistent.
The reason is because before that, Yoon Gyeom showed special concern for the female lead through lines like: "You are the woman I like the most", or "I can't bear to think about you with another man"...
Following closely behind “The Legend of Mrs. Ok” in this week’s drama rankings is “When the Phone Rings,” with Yoo Yeon Seok and Chae Soo Bin taking second and fourth place respectively in the cast list.
The drama “Love Omen” rose to No. 3 on this week’s list of dramas, while Joo Ji Hoon and Jung Yu Mi took No. 3 and No. 5 on the cast list, respectively.
The drama “The Fiery Priest 2” dropped from 2nd place last week to 4th place this week, while Kim Nam Gil and Lee Ha Nee ranked 7th and 10th respectively in the cast list.
The drama “Amnesty Examiner” maintained its 5th place in the list of TV dramas, while the remaining rankings in the top 10 belonged to the dramas “Da Rim Family”, “Grandma’s Rejuvenation”, “Men Say Love”, “Love Scout” (tentative translation: My Perfect Secretary) and “Confrontation”.
According to Good Data Corp., while the drama list only includes dramas that air on television, the cast list includes actors from OTT (online) shows, and the two stars of “The Suitcase,” Gong Yoo and Seo Hyun Jin, made it onto this week’s list at No. 8 and No. 9, respectively.
