The weekend drama ratings battle is heating up!
On October 12, SBS’s “The Judge from Hell” kicked off the second half of its run on its highest viewership ratings yet. According to Nielsen Korea, the latest episode of the fantasy drama scored an average nationwide rating of 13.6 percent, marking a new personal record for the show.
Meanwhile, two new dramas got off to promising starts last night. JTBC’s “A Virtuous Business” premiered to an average nationwide rating of 3.9 percent, while tvN’s “Jeongnyeon: The Star is Born” premiered a nationwide average of 4.8 percent.
Despite facing stiff competition from “The Judge from Hell,” which airs in the same time slot, MBC’s new drama “Doubt” scored an average nationwide rating of 4.7 percent for its second episode.
Finally, KBS 2TV’s “Iron Family” earned its highest ratings to date for a Saturday (when its ratings have typically been lower compared to Sundays). The fifth episode of the new weekend drama earned a nationwide average of 14.7 percent, making it the most-watched program of the entire week.
