Good Data Corporation has just compiled a list of the most popular films of the week. As a result, the historical drama “The Tale of Lady Ok” has risen to the top.
Along with that, the main actors Lim Ji Yeon and Choo Young Woo respectively rose to No. 1 and No. 2 on the list of most discussed cast members.
In addition, on the evening of December 15, “The Legend of Mrs. Ok” also achieved its highest viewership rating since its broadcast. According to Nielsen Korea, the drama increased its rating to 8.5% despite going through a hiatus.
Reviewing "The Legend of Mrs. Ok", the media praised the fast-paced development, interesting plot and the female lead's acting.
In addition to telling the story of runaway slave Goo Deok Yi (Lim Ji Yeon) pretending to be Miss Ok Tae Young, the interesting point of the project is that the male lead Cheon Seung Hwi and the secondary lead Sung Yoon Gyeom are both played by the same person - actor Choo Young Woo.
Compared to previous works such as “Diary of a Rural Love”, “Oasis of Youth”…, in this project, the expression of the star born in 1999 is more restrained and natural. However, having to take on 2 roles along with having to act with a talented senior actress like Lim Ji Yeon also puts a lot of pressure on Choo Young Woo.
Following closely behind “The Legend of Lady Ok” in this week’s drama rankings is “The Fiery Priest 2,” with male lead Kim Nam Gil taking 8th place in the cast list.
The drama “When the Phone Rings” dropped from No. 1 last week to No. 3 on this week’s drama list. The two main actors Yoo Yeon Seok and Chae Soo Bin also lost their top spots, ranking 7th and 9th on the cast list.
The drama “Love Omen” ranked 4th in the list of TV dramas, with 2 stars Ju Ji Hoon and Jung Yu Mi rising to 3rd and 4th place respectively in the list of actors.
The new drama “The Pardon Appraiser” ranked 5th on this week’s drama list, and male lead Go Soo rose to 10th on the cast list.
Meanwhile, the dramas “Da Rim Family”, “Cinderella Game”, “I'm Not Sorry”, “Love Drunk” and “Face to Face” ranked 6th to 10th respectively in the list of TV dramas.
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 to this week’s list at No. 5 and No. 6, respectively.
