Ough it is disappointing that Graceful Liar was #6... that drama is trashy imo the plot just doesnt go anywhere.…
Korean viewers generally liked the drama but they also had some complaints, especially about the second half. Still, overall the series performed well throughout its run. Honestly, I don’t want to comment too much since I haven’t been able to follow it closely but as far as I understand, MDL users also found it to be average
Interesting that it is more popular than daily First Man , which is #7bc Pearl in Read is closer to home, how…
Since The Third Marriage, KBS2 daily dramas have clearly outperformed MBC’s daily dramas in terms of popularity. Also, one of the main reason behind Pearl in Red’s success is that KBS promoted it very well, unlike its other daily dramas. Thanks to the heavy social media promotions before it aired, the drama got off to a strong start.
Meanwhile, First Man ranking 7th is actually quite a good result for that series. It had a pretty rough start due to TWWSTS’ mega-flop and MBC’s poor promotion efforts. However it’s gradually recovering, and it will most likely have a competitive race with Pearl in Red soon
According to the Korean Business Research Institute, a well-known company that regularly releases data-driven popularity rankings for drama actors and shows, Pearl in Red has ranked "4th" in popularity in Korea. -- with more than 3 million user votes.
While daily dramas usually struggle to even enter the Top 10, Pearl in Red managed to reach 4th place in its very first month. It also surpassed the highest ranking of A Graceful Liar which was 6th. Hopefully, it can maintain the same momentum in the upcoming months
I haven't been this hooked on a Korean crime-thriller since Mouse. Acting, script, characters — simply magnificent. Not a single scene that I got bored, and FL is such a complex character. Looking forward to the next episodes
While everyone is busy coming up with theories and following the plot, there’s some huge news for the drama.
According to the Korean Business Research Institute, a well-known company that regularly releases data-driven popularity rankings for drama actors and shows, Queen’s House has ranked "2nd" in popularity in Korea. (Yes, you read that right, SECOND) -- with more than 4.5 million user votes.
This is actually a record for a daily drama. The previous best belonged to “Cinderella Game” and “Man in a Veil” which reached 3rd place in March 2025 and February 2021. Daily dramas usually struggle to even enter the Top 10, but Queen’s House has been staying in the Top 10 since its very first broadcast, which is an incredible achievement.
OST Part 1 has been released and from the clip, it seems like we will have many upcoming scenes featuring Gyeong Ho, like a basketball match between the four friends. There may have been some small time jumps already. It might sound weird, but this could be the director's style maybe.
So waiting for six days for the next episode? Oh, feels like forever. It's been a while since I’ve been hooked on a Kdrama like this, specifically since Taxi Driver 2 (romcoms aren't really my thing)
Episode 2 was absolutely amazing, and that family... perfect on the outside, but it looks like there was so much going on inside. Can't wait to see what happens next.

A solid start to the series. I'm curious to see how Su Yeon's revenge will unfold. Although the first episode was a bit slow, it was engaging and I never felt bored. Plus, BGM is excellent.
The first episode was 8.7/10 for me. Definitely continuing.
Bonus: It's great to see our SKY Castle couple and Penthouse rivals back on screen!

The preview of the final episode was looking crazy, full of thrill. I can't wait for tomorrow
The plot seems sick and a bit insane, I hope it'll be great.
FL: Oh Ji-eun (Unknown Woman)
ML: Seo Ha-jun (The Secret House)
The screenwriter wrote Gracious Revenge (actually it was a pretty decent daily). I hope it won't get too boring like the current dailies
