That means not only is the drama the most watched in its category (Wednesday-Thursday), it is the most watched weekly mini-series in Korea!

This is an incredible feat for any drama, but even more impressive considering the drama is produced by ENA, a little-known station, and that is a Wednesday-Thursday drama.

For perspective, the second most watched Wednesday-Thursday drama is Seo Yea Ji‘s tvN drama Eve, which has a rating of 3.4%.
