Drama Ranking for the �2nd Week of June
tvN’s Our Blues ended in the first place. Though every episode was different, the overall realistic and sympathetic story received favorable reviews throughout the show. In particular, Lee Byung Hun and Kim Hye Ja‘s passionate performances in the last episode garnered rave responses. The appearances of actors with disabilities also drew attention. SBS’s Why Her? kept its place in second place. The swift development and Seo Hyun Jin‘s spiteful acting are drawing positive reviews, but some say that her romance with Hwang In Youp, playing a law school student, was too abrupt and getting in the way. MBC’s Doctor Lawyer, which premiered on the same day, plummeted to tenth place. However, many expressed anticipation for Shin Sung Rok, who appeared for the first time in the third episode. tvN’s Sh**ting Stars ended in third place. Though the series stayed in the 1% ratings in Korea, it successfully gained popularity overseas. tvN’s new drama Link: Eat, Love, Kill debuted at No. 4. Viewers complimented the well-combined genres of mystery, comedy, and romance. JTBC’s new series Insider debuted in eighth place. Some viewers and Buddhists expressed disappointment over the scene in the first episode that showed monks taking part in illegal gambling. The production team edited out the problematic scene and issued an apology.
