Drama viewership ratings for the week of June 10-16, 2024
by DB Staff
Crash continues its climb towards its finale hitting 6.3% this week, and Missing Crown Prince, which has been on a slow incline since its premiere, finished its 20-episode run just over 5% — love this for these smaller channels!
In the midweek slot, My Sweet Mobster premiered at a modest 2.3% — which is actually higher than its predecessor Frankly Speaking was able to pull off for its entire run. So, that goes to show that the midweek slot might be quiet for dramas, but those that are watching are paying attention.
As for our weekend, Connection is still aiming for double digits at its midpoint, and Miss Night and Day hits a nice 4.0% for its premiere.

Happy for connection. I was expecting two digits this week.
Monster is off to a good start for a mid week drama. Hope to see it increase from here.
Crash is solid and looks like it will end in this range.

I felt sad that two current KBS dramas (Dare to Love Me, Beauty and Mr Romantic) are still struggling with the ratings. I understood that Dare to Love Me still remain steady at 1% rating after dropped the high rating from episode 1 (2.3%) to the rating of second episode (1.5%) due to completely uninspired romantic storyline, so I hope that we have a better inspired romantic storyline that fittingly enough to garner a bit of a high rating above 5% mark. Meanwhile, despite of still leading this current weekender on this week's Kdrama ratings, I knew that this weekender Beauty and Mr. Romantic still not getting the 20% rating mark until now because of recent scandalized storyline and I don't think that KBS weekender always using the same formulas and even the same ole storylines which completely a problematic experience for Korean viewers. I also didn't know that Beauty and Mr. Romantic would-be family drama but unfortunately, I'm so bit disappointed that it wasn't quite a family drama yet and that's why weekenders (where KBS was the only weekender channel/network) are still struggling for 20% rating mark. So I still praying for possible reaching this current weekender's 20% rating mark by the following weeks by changing the better/best storylines and even the unproblematic storylines that will be garner above 20% rating mark. If this current weekender will not having above 20% rating mark, then let KBS will have to decide whether to abandon weekender format due to most problematic storylines and supposed-to-be family drama genre. If KBS will be abandon the weekender format then the weekender era will end soon as possible.

I certainly hate the sexual harassment of the FL in this weekender but would note that the message that what the 2ML is doing is absolutely wrong could not be spelled out more clearly- and that fact that this very flaw in his character is leading to his downfall means that the show is sending a clear message that such behavior in not just wrong but hazardous to the wellbeing of the harasser (as it should be).
But I respectfully disagree with your characterization of the ML's half-sister. It is true that her parents did indeed attempt to do what you said BUT Mari was having none of it. In Mari the clear message is that people in her position are not entirely helpless and in fact have a great deal to contribute. Mari is actually shaping up to be one of the real heroes of this story and is absolutely a major element in the tale.

KBS will discontinue their miniseries for now and replace them with sitcoms which are much cheaper to produce. They will be shortening the length of their weekenders to just 30 episodes starting next year. They are trying to save the weekenders but you’re right KBS is not in a good place drama wise.

Connection and Crash continue to be superb...... They are headed by senior actors who deliver! As for Missing Crown Prince, I am so glad that it did very well...getting a 5.1% is no easy feat for MBN, especially when one has to compete with so many dramas from more popular channels (both public and cables).. And yes, surprisingly I love My Sweet Mobster.....a non-OTT drama (a first on Wednesday-Thursday timeslot).

Loving Crash and Mobster ratings. I was so excited for Night and Day and episode 1 was excellent so I can see why it started well.

Seeing Missing Crown Prince's numbers, even though I didn't watch the show, just makes me think it really *was* the messiness of script/story/plot/whatever that led to Love Song for Illusion's numbers and it wasn't due (in part) to the actress like people liked to claim

Maybe MY SWEET MOBSTER will get people watching at mid-week again. So far it is fun.
I am glad that CRASH is doing decently- it is a well-done show.

Hagwon you can do it!!
Idk what show is the one killing my Hagwon on Saturdays, but I'm glad Sundays ratings keep getting higher.
And I'm happy for Thirsty Lobster, that's a decent start.
Miss Day and Night was... something. I prefer watching Eun Ji in Girls on Fire tbh. But I good for the cast they had a decent start (ratings wise).
Wait, I just noticed 2/3 of the Drink Now Work Never gang is back. Good for them!

Sigh! So no way of knowing how it's doing.
But then that does explain its somewhat adult treatment and tone of the romance.
