Drama Ranking for the 3rd Week of March

tvN’s Twenty-Five Twenty-One is continuing its unbeaten streak for six weeks straight. Many loved the scene where Nam Joo Hyuk kissed Kim Tae Ri, but some were concerned about the minor-adult romance trope re-emerging in the show. SBS’ Business Proposal came in at No.2. The sweet chemistry between the main leads received rave reviews from its viewers. KBS’Young Lady and Gentleman stayed at No.3 with some poor reviews on its slow plot. JTBC’s Forecasting Love and Weather rose to No.4 as it hooked viewers with Song Kang rolling into a sudden explosion accident. JTBC’s Thirty-Nine landed on fifth place after having its one-week break. There was negative feedback against its adultery trope, but many loved how the show played out Son Ye Jin, Jeon Mi Do, and Kim Ji Hyun’s sweet friendship. TV CHOSUN’s Love (Ft. Marriage and Divorce) remained at No.6. The show received mixed reviews as Lee Min Young returned as a ghost.
