Namgoong Min has done it again!
According to Nielsen Korea, the August 25 episode of MBC’s newest hit “My Dearest” became its highest-rated episode recording 10.6%. This episode is now the 1st for the drama to surpass the double digits, a jump of nearly 2%.
The drama started out with ratings in the 5% range and has been steadily increasing. In the same time slot, SBS’s “The First Responders 2” remained steady with 6.2%.
With this, “My Dearest” becomes the first MBC weekend drama in some time to surpass its competition on SBS. Generally, SBS dramas dominated this time slot for quite a while. Thought to be impossible to lift out of its slump at first, the MBC weekend drama slot is seeing a resurgence with Namgoong Min at the lead.
Congratulations to the cast and crew of “My Dearest”!
