Drama Ranking for 3rd Week of August

SBS’s Good Partner has claimed the top spot in this week’s rankings, showing impressive popularity despite a brief hiatus. While the captivating infidelity storyline has captivated the viewers, some have pointed out that the somewhat outdated portrayals of female characters, especially considering the female writer behind the show. Meanwhile, tvN’s Love Next Door made a strong debut at number two. Although the show features an appealing cast, some viewers have expressed disappointment, labeling it a “cliché-filled romance.” Still, it remains to be seen if the show can maintain its early buzz. tvN’s Serendipity’s Embrace wrapped up its run in third place. ENA’s Your Honor debuted in fourth place, earning praise for the stellar performances of veteran actors Son Hyun Joo and Kim Myung Min, along with its intense direction. However, the lack of availability on OTT platforms has sparked complaints about the limited viewing options. Disney Plus’s The Tyrant and MBC’s Black Out took the fifth and sixth spots, respectively. The Tyrant faced criticism for sticking too closely to director Park Hoon Jung’s usual storytelling style, offering little that felt new. As for Black Out, which airs in the same time slot as Good Partner, it struggled to attract attention in its first week, raising concerns about its future performance.
