luckily, this drama is very popular in korea! i think it could’ve done better internationally if it was on a major streaming platform, but it actually hit #1 on all the platforms it’s currently available on.

finally! i was waiting for this!

awww, thank you!

i loved her in reborn rookie! i hope she gets more major roles.

hoping this one also has a good story with good viewership 🙏 i won’t expect too much, but the thought of lee junyoung having TWO successful dramas this year is exciting!

yup. i think it’s becoming more common for dramas to have less official songs since that market dried up.

13.568% nationwide 😭 #1 for cable dramas in 2026! i’m so proud!

i’m very glad there was no major romance throughout the drama, like the director said, so the way the writer added junhyeon and banggeul’s romantic relationship towards the very end was actually well done. everyone was worried about potential weird/incest-y vibes (which i wasn’t worried about) but none of that was there in the end. the revelation of junhyeon falling in love with banggeul while he was in a coma was incredibly heartwarming.

this just might be kim soonok and hyun jimin’s first 10/10 drama! maybe they’re better suited off with adaptations 😂

he has an upcoming drama with song kang coming out in august called four hands, two sonatas!

🙏🙏🙏

11% is nielsen, 30% is realtime! nielsen calculates the realtime average.

realtime viewership hit 30% today, the first for a saturday episode of this drama!

i assume so!

the teaser looks so gorgeous 🥺 very excited for this drama!

this film is never coming out so the editors might as well delete this page, lol.

reborn rookie? LOL!

it really makes so much sense why they were desperately praying for reborn rookie to hit 30% nationwide in their business reports, LOL.

absolutely! i will be heavily rooting for lee junyoung and jeon hyejin to win best actor and best supporting actress (unless she could be eligible for best actress, which would be awesome)!

i wonder if reborn rookie could’ve gotten higher ratings if it followed the classic format of 16 episodes. not a lot of the 12 episode cable dramas have surpassed double digits in ratings so it’s impressive that reborn rookie did, even if it’s not enough to save the channel entirely. i’m proud of the cast and crew, anyway!
